. Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Well built, solid peroformer. The D300 is a phenomenal work from Nikon. I moved up from a D70 and have been very pleased.
Cons: Still a bit pricy. The D300 can be purchased for around 1575.00 - 1625.00 from reputable dealers.

A milestone camera The Nikon D300 is one of those 'keep forever' cameras with capabilities more than any serious photographer could want, except of course cheaper price. I am almost overwhelmed by the options and versatility of this camera. I travel a lots and have graduated from an Olympus OM-3(film) to digital point and shoot and now the D300. Happy birthday to me from me.

Unbeliveable clarity and sharp and crisp The first, the very first image from the Nikon D300 with it's 18-200mm lens (all around lens for me) showed me I had made the right choice. Snapped an image of neighbor across street standing beneath his American flag. On the computer screen I could see the stitches in his pants and some loose threads hanging from the flag's edge. There are many features and options on the camera I personally will not need (it is loaded) but I believe it will fit each amature and professiona...

Worth every penny Others have covered the basics, so let me just say that this camera simply helps me take better pictures than any other camera I've owned, period.
Yes, there are lots of cool features that do all sorts of wonderful things, but at the end of the day, I seem able to take my D300 out with a few of my favorite lenses, and even just walking around town, I always come back with at least a few gallery-grade shots. Between the camera's capabilities and the comfortable controls, it just alw...

Nikon D300 the best you can get! I ordered my D300 on July 24th of this year after reading hundreds of reviews on Amazon, Adorama, Ritz, Newegg, Ken Rockwell and others. Every once in a while, Nikon will produce something that it's users absolutely fall in love with. In the entry level market, it's the D40. At the advanced level it was the D70. In the high end market, the one between the advanced and professional market which only Nikon has established, it's is the D300! Many try to compare the D300 with Cannon's 40D. No, the 4...

Won't autofocus, a dud All I've read here are rave reviews but my experience is that the D300 is vastly overrated as a shooter. I bought mine brand new at Best Buy with a Tamron zoom lens and right out of the box it wouldn't autofocus properly. The motor would whirr and the lens tried feebly to focus in on a the subject without success.
Took it back to Best Buy and we tried a Nikon 55-200VR lens and that didn't work any better. I was going to try another D300 but they were out of stock and I was already ...

Magnifcent upgrade from D70s I upgraded from three years with the Nikon D70s. There are not enough words to describe the completeness, quality, or flexibility the D300 proffers advanced amateur photographers. What prompted me most to make the leap is the video tutorial on Nikon's web site. And it only scratches the surface of the feature-richness of this marvel of cameras. My favorite (though there are many) is the ability to customize all the settings to fit four different scenarios. For instance, if I go from shooting a l...

only reason to buy this camera this camera produces the most realistic and artistic file grain I have every seen. Noise is very beautifully rendered. Images are usable even at ISO as high as 3200.
Look at some full size images of the Canon 40d and even the more expensive 5D for comparison, you'll be surprised at how much more capable this camera is in low light.
Solid build, customizable menus and controls, 51 AF points......they just sweeten the deal even more.

nikon d300 i am very happy with the camera. i previously owned the d200 so this was an upgrade. the d300 is very similar in physical appearence although the features are much improved. the only problem i had was that the vendor sent me a unit that was not brand new as the box had been opened and some things were missing. Amazon was very responsive with an exchange or a refund or keeping the item but with a discounted price.
