I would like to know what kind of Nikon that is, how much, and how much the white lens is?

Camera's a Nikon D200, as it says on the front of it.

The lens is a 70-200f2.8 ED.

And that photo has been around since 2008, if not earlier, so it may have been a special item a few years ago.

Digging deeper, check link 2. That may be restored and repainted lens (by Nikon).

The Nikon model is on the front of the camera. It's an old ish one, I think.
The lens would cost a couple of thousand I guess (but I'm a canon man so don't know so much about Nikon costs!)

The body is an old Nikon D200. The lens looks like a first gen 70-200mm f2.8 VR that's been restored or just repainted. Nikon never sold the 70-200 in white.

The body can be bought for $200 to $400 but good luck finding one in good shape these days. The D200 was a pro DX body and as such most of them will be well used these days. Most of the D200's I've used had the rubber pealing off the grips.

The lens on the other hand sells for $1, 600 used.

Nikon D200 review

I wouldn't buy a D200 if its your first DSLR. The D200 has no scene modes or any consumer friendly auto modes. It was built for the experienced photographer.

It's a dSLR with a long white lens.

Am I right or am I right?

Cost? Lens (black version) is around $2000 while the D200 is around $300 so a rough estimate on secondhand terms is around $2300. The white version is very rare though but there's always a place where you can have it customized. If Nikon doesn't want to be bothered by it, try Rick's Restorations at Vegas.
