"I have only had this baby for 2 days, but it has been a workhorse, as I have gone through hundreds of images in that time.
It has miniscule boot time; take the lens cap off, switch to the ON position; take photo > super quick.
I bought it w/ the AF-Nikkor 28-105mm F3.5-4.5D lens, and a 1GB 32x Lexarmedia CF card. Works fine so far; I will be adding lenses and accessories as time goes on.
Nikon has produced a real winner. "

    "The D100 camera is great. I shoot in raw format. It has two short comings. First, your can only take four pictures and then you have to wait for the buffer to become empty. I wish Nikon had a service to increase the size of the buffer for pictures shot in raw mode. For every other JPEG mode the buffer is not a problem. Second, the zoom controls on the rear viewer do not work in raw format. They work just fine in JPEG. I really like the camera and have printed hundreds of 13 X 19 pictures on the Epson 2200 printer. ...just my two cents! "

    "Unless you want to become obsessed, because that's what happened to me. There are not enough good things to say about this camera. I love the many features, the fast start-up, compatibility with my other lenses for my standard Nikon cameras. It's so easy to use, and takes fabulous pictures. "

    "As a serious amateur (means limited budget), the D100 was chosen for several reasons. 1. It would take all my Nikon lenses and resembled the layout and feel of my F80 (N80). 2. It is compatible with my SB28DX flash and has a cable release on the shutter button. 3. It has been out long enough (post Nikon D70) to have come down in price, and many are available second hand. 4. It has USB for down loading, and produces excellent 8 by 10's on my inexpensive ink jet printer. 5. The Nikon Viewer software is very user friendly, and links to Adobe Photoshop. 6. It produces RAW (NEF) files (nearly 10Mb!) and they make fabulous 11 by 17's at the commmercial labs. 7. Yes, it is heavier than my Sony DSCV1, but it is worth it. All in all I am very satisfied: compared to film...instant gratification! "

    "i just recently bought this camera off of amazon and i got it for $175. The price couldnt be better in my opinion. Overall, for the amount of money that i spent on it, it was a deal but there are some problems. Personally i feel that the shutter lag time is too great. Regardless of shutter speed, there is about a half second delay between when the button is pressed and when the camera acutally takes the picture. Other than that it is a great camera with tons of features. I also would have liked the screen to be bigger but what can you do when it was made in 2002. I give it two thumbs up for its time. "
