Yeah but the D200 still holds it's own at ISO100 against the D3/D700/D300...I should know, I currently have them all.
I am sorry, but I have to disagree.
I have both the D200 and the D700. The IQ at ISO 200 on the D700 is much better than ISO 100 on the D200. Lift the shadows on both and you will see. Th detail without noise and the colors hold up so much better on the D700. Also look at the blue sky shots from both. The D700 shots are so much cleaner that it's amazing also at low ISO. In addition the dynamic range and color depth of the D700 can't be matched by the D200. All this is clearly noticeable if you shoot RAW and do a fair bit of PP. If you shoot JPEGs at low ISO and don't do any PP the difference may not be that great..
