Customer Rating:      Summary: A great camera ! Comment: Have my new Nikon 300D with 18-200 lens approx. a month.
Just returned from 2+ weeks in Alaska and my pics are great.
Have been playing with different settings and if one reads the manual or some of the excellent guides that are available all should be smooth.
A camera for the here and now and for years to come.
A winner in every sense. Experiment and you will be rewarded. I use my polarizering filter and the results are great.
If you want quality construction and Nikon reliability get this camera.
All other manufacturers strive to equal this one,so why get a 'knock-off' ?
Great for anyone who loves photography and wants more than holding your camera at arms length to capture those memorable times.
No different than reading a book or just picking up a synopsis .
Spend the money,spend the time using your brain and discover the world !!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Finally I have my DSLR Comment: This is my first DSLR, and I'm glad I waited for this. Feels much like my F100...on steroids. I'm just scraping the surface at this point and am thoroughly impressed.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Buy It Comment: To start I am an a amateur photographer with about two years experience.
I own a D40,which was my first and really enjoy it for family and everyday shooting.Great colors and focus.I then purchased the D80 which I have had
great success with and love it!But when I purchased the D300 there is no
comparison.The 51 point focus is awesome and the color choices are unbelievable! This thing is awesome when it comes to speed and focus.Quick
accurate response time is great for nature and fast moving subjects.
The pictures you take will make you feel like a pro with the very first shots taken.
The menu is so easy to use that it makes ease of changing and getting exactly what you're looking for.There is a lot in the menu but with a little time you'll get it fine because it has a help section.Anyone thinking of going another step up to a pro camera should not look elsewhere as Nikon truly has created a gem!To me this is a five star camera because of performance and the rugged build quality,A+
Customer Rating:      Summary: Simply Amazing Comment: I'm going to try to keep this short. Controls are perfectly spaced and in the right places, 6 Frames per second is fast but add the MB-D10 grip and you get 8 frames per second. It's been great not just for sports but also photographing children on the go. Thanks to Nikons picture control system adding different profiles to the camera or sharing with other photographers is a snap. i'd also recommend the mb-d10 grip as it balances out the camera and just feels right. there just seems to be something missing without it. not to mention the ability to power the camera from AA batteries rather than 40 dollar EN-EL3e batteries. For $20 you can buy Energizer 2500mah NiMH batteries which last longer than the 1500mah lithium ion batteries. HDMI output is nice but have only used it to test it. Live view is great for the strange tight spots photographers sometimes find them in. i've used it to take pictures over the heads of other people in crowds or while setting the camera on my shoe but didn't want to smash my face into the ground to look through the viewfinder. the shutter release takes a little getting used to and expect to occasionally snap two shots while in Ch mode (highspeed). the high iso performance is great however if you are looking for unbelievable high iso performance look at the D3.
