Nikon D300

The Nikon D300 will currently set you back around £1000 in the UK, and that's without the glass on the front. My review here might seem technical to some, but that's not an amount of money most people part with lightly. I don't apologise for putting some basic spec in the review, after all, if you're considering buying this camera, it's exactly what you need to know before getting out your wallet. If you're after a camera that will take good quality ...
...said, my review of the Nikon D300 contains some specifications and technical speak, as well as my own experience of using the camera. I haven't covered everything, as that would take forever, but I've aimed to cover some of the more important and useable features. ***What's in the Box?*** D300 body, including body cap, LCD monitor cover and eyepiece cap EN-EL3e rechargeable Li-ion battery with terminal cover MH-18a quick charger and power cable ...

Review of Nikon D300

Nikon managed to protect very well the two projects (D3 and D300), the first information that predicted the appearance of D300, where published on the Internet just 24 hours before the official release date. D300 is a giant in technology (photo-technology)by now and needs a little more attention. In fact, D300 represents the new reference point in the professional zone of digital photography. The only aspect, at which Nikon looses in front of Canon, ...
...secret this model, or else, Nikon could have made up something like a resolution sensor (maybe better that Canon). But this a part of the gigantic marketing ideas. Anyway, it was a huge surprise for all of us to find out that these big names have upgraded their DSLR system. And all of this happened in just a week! From now on, D300 is the most performing camera DSLR of Nikon, being the logo of the "full-size" (36x24mm) cameras. The difference between ...

Review of Nikon D300

...having moved up from the Nikon D40x. The D300 is the new version of the excellent D200, boasting a new processor and a host of features from its big brother the D3. ** Picture quality ** The D300 produces outstanding pictures, as simple as that. But what I love about this camera is just how easy it is to get great results. Almost paradoxically, despite the camera looking awfully complicated with the many buttons, it is actually far easier to use ...
...set to auto too. The Nikon D40 would have required continual altering of ISO and white balance, plus most likely switching to manual for indoor shots. Not so with the D300. Colour, detail and noise levels are great, and the camera handles any difficult lighting situation excellently e.g. shooting against bright open window, even without the D-lighting. ** Other great attributes ** - It's quick. 6 fps and up to 8 fps with a bigger battery. That is ...

Review of Nikon D300

D 300 is a truly great camera, is definitely a jump from the previous D200. The main advantage of the D300 is the low noise at higher ISO. I recently shot a musical performance under a very low light condition, using ISO 1600, and was surprised to see that the D300 produces very little less noise. The auto focusing is fast, with 51 AF point is very helpful when shooting moving objects. When shooting with 12-bit NEF or JPG, I could get 6fps, but the ...
...It is a perfect camera to shoot in low light situation, especially when there are a lot of actions going on. The Live View feature is also a nice advantage, even though I am used to peek from the viewfinder, but it is helpful when we want to capture a scene at unusual angle. Overall D300 is a great camera, the image quality, fast focusing and low noise at high ISO are definitely the best feature. ...

Review of Nikon D300

I exchanged my D200 for a D300 a week ago. At the moment the weather has not been particularly good so the camera has been set at a high ISO rating. One set of pictures were taken at ISO 1600, something I would have never attempted with my D200 or my D2Xs, which I also have. The results are very pleasing and the lack of noise is a great achievement for Nikon. Previously in low light conditions, I would have to put the pictures through Photoshop and ...
...and the presettings allow you to tailor the image to your own liking. Another step forward is the "Live View" option. This will be a great asset to lndscape, still life and macro photographers. The pre-view screen on the back of the camera is a huge and very clear. ...
