Default Nikon D200 vs. D80

Hmmm, looking at the specs, the D80 actually lacks the D70's
electronic shutter so only 1/4000 sec (not 1/8000) and flash synch
1/200 sec (not 1/500). And it uses smaller memory cards and is a tiny
bit smaller than a D70.


At least the old D70 can be fooled to sync up to 1/4000 and above for flash.
I wonder if this will be the case with the D80?


No, because the D80 has a mechanical shutter.
