Outstanding digital SLR.......2007-12-27
I used primarily a Nikon D70 for several years, acquiring a number of Nikon lenses and miscellaneous accessories, and only started to outgrow the camera when the D300 was announced. Having deliberately skipped the D200, I felt very little hesitation in stepping up to the D300. It was absolutely the right choice for me; the autofocus system, greatly improved image quality (I'm thinking of sensor noise and dynamic range when I say that), and LCD monitor are the three areas where I most notice the improvement. The improved viewfinder is also nice, and I've used the live view feature to compose a handful of shots that I could not otherwise frame.
Is the D300 the right choice for you?
Make sure you handle a D300 before you buy. The ergonomics of a camera are far more important than most people realize; compare the location of important dials and buttons to other similar cameras, such as the offerings from Canon, Sony, or Pentax. If you prefer the ergonomics of a different manufacturer, you would do yourself a substantial favor by respecting that preference. The most important feature of a camera is how thin of a barrier it provides between you and your photography; poorly matched ergonomics represent a thick barrier. If you already use Nikon SLR cameras, you know what to expect.
If you only take snapshots, but don't like point and shoot cameras, take a look at the D40, or possibly the D40X. You will be frustrated by the extra knobs and dials on the D300, and won't really leverage the extra features that you're paying for. Put the extra money towards a good all-in-one zoom, like the Nikon 18-200mm.
If you're a beginning photographer, you should seriously consider the D70 or D80 as a starting point. There will be fewer features to get between you and your photography, but still more than enough to keep you occupied for several years, or 20,000 pictures-- whichever comes first. Put the extra money towards good lenses, like constant-aperture zoom lenses, or fast primes; alternatively, consider buying a high-quality tripod, one that you would feel comfortable using with a top-of-the-line camera.
If you have a D200, you should probably skip the D300. The image quality and feature set are similar; save your money, and wait for the next-generation Nikon digital SLR. If the money is burning a hole in your pocket, maybe you'd like to pick up a similarly-priced lens.
If you have anything more expensive than a D200, you surely know what you're getting into, and don't need my opinion to tell you otherwise. A D300 would make a fine backup body for a D2X user, especially since you can precisely match the color of the D300 to that of the D2X.
Finally! .......2007-12-23
This is exactly what I have been waiting for and it has everything I need want or know what to do with. I am loving every minute with it.
Great Camera. It is all that has been advertised. Best Camera I have ever owned!.......2007-12-23
I have taken about 1500 pictures with this camera and it is the best. This is my 3rd DSLR camera and by far the best so far. Feels great to hold and takes great pictures right out of the box. It will take me months if not longer to learn all the features that come with this camera but the factory camera settings do a great job. Spend the money for a good lens and it is a combo that will be hard to beat.
Compared to my D2X and then traded for the D300.......2007-12-21
Yes, we shot dozens of images under varying conditions with and without flash using the same lens on a D2X and a D300. After seeing the results, we traded the D2X for the D300. It is not that the D2X images could not be made to look pretty close to the D300 with time in Photoshop, the out-of-camera results of the D300 are near perfect. We always had to make adjustments in Photoshop in images from the D2X. With the D300, most are nearly perfect out of the camera. Had the D2X for over 2 years so this was not a test based on a few shots.
Technology advances rapidly and prices fall as quick. The D300 takes better images than the D2X and costs less than 1/3 the original price of the D2X. Makes you wonder what the D400 will look like. ;)
Outstanding!!!.......2007-12-20
I received mine yesterday and I must say this camera beats the rest in the APS-C sensor range! Image quality is outstanding, with a little tweaking though in the settings. D-lighting works very well. Focusing is fast and accurate. Excellent build quality. Great LCD, which I think is a great tool for Art/ Landscape photography. This camera has excellent features for achieving high quality images. I highly recommend this baby to any serious photographer.
