Comment: If the D200 was revolutionary, the D300 is more of an evolution, but one that has a good number of evolutionary elements drawn from both ends of the spectrum. Nikon D300 Specification Sensor: CMOS - 12.3Mp Image Size: 4288 x 2848 Lens: Takes Nikkor A...

Good: Excellent advanced Autofocus system, Live view in two modes, Optional battery grip increases performance and enables multiple battery use, Great rear screen, Rugged build quality, High ISO noise control, One touch zooming on screen, Lens presets, Ergonomi...

Bad: Loss of ISO100, Needs high-speed cards to get the best from it, Battery grip needs extras to allow full range of batteries

Bottomline: Despite the D300 being a replacement for the semi-pro D200, Nikons professional users can rest assured that the camera is also a worthy replacement for the D2 range of DX format professional models and will carry the format well into the future. Build...

Comment: The Nikon D300 Digital SLR camera excels at producing rich, sharp, noise-free photographs from its base ISO200 all the way up to ISO1600. Surprisingly, ISO3200 performance is also acceptable for print production at reasonable output sizes depending on ...

Comment: As Ive remarked before, I get to see and use a lot of digital cameras in the course of my job, from the cheapest budget compacts to the very best professional DSLRs. As a life-long camera nerd I couldnt be happier with this arrangement, but the...

Comment: The D300 feels solid and is comfortable to grip. The Nikon D300 splits the difference between full-frame, professional cameras and entry-level DSLRs. We wouldn’t recommend it for first-time SLR buyers because its price, features, and controls are...

Good: Great image quality. Substantial, comfortable body. Snappy response time. Live-view LCD mode. Gives complete image control. Good high-ISO performance. Useful stabilizer in bundled lens.

Bad: Every surface seems covered with buttons.

Bottomline: The D300 fits nicely between professional and beginner digital cameras. Complete manual control and excellent images make it a great backup for pros or an upgrade after intermediates outgrow their starter DSLRs. ...

Comment: Nikon’s D300 is another semi pro/enthusiast DSLR, that logically replaces the well-received D200 in the middle of the company’s lineup. It features a solid, tank-like build, and like the Canon, two LCDs – a high-resolution 3in screen dom...

Good: Best out-of-the-box results on test, chunky, sturdy build yet not overly weighty, ergonomic control layout, fast and reliable

Bad: Expensive, but better value for money if you’re already a Nikon user and own compatible lenses

Comment: The 12.3MP Nikon D300 replaces the previous 10.2MP model Â- the D200 Â- and sports a plethora of new and improved features, including an incredibly high quality 922,000 pixel, three-inch LCD with Live View, a vast improvement over the D200Â's considerab...

Comment: Nikon D300 ble lansert i august 2007 og kom i salg utpå vinteren. Prismessig ligger det ganske nær der hvor Nikons første entusiast-modell i det digitale speilrefleksmarkedet, D70, lå ved lanseringen i 2004. Men samtidig har det fått såpass mye teknolo...

Bottomline: Nikon D300 får velfortjente 9 poeng. Foruten høy bildekvalitet skårer Nikon høyt på mange andre områder også, for eksempel med testens beste lcd-skjerm. Dessuten er det raskt både når det gjelder betjening og serieopptak, det har høy byggekvalitet og ...

Comment: Vi har satt Nikon D300 på prøve i fjellet i vinterferien, i vær som vekslet fra hylende vestavind og snøfokk via sol og blå himmel til øsende regn. Nikon D300 greide seg mye bedre enn fotografen. Undertegnede endte opp med frostsmerter i fingre og tær ...

Bottomline: Nikon D300 har naturligvis konkurrenter, som vi vel å merke ikke har brukt i noen sammenlignende test med Nikon D300. Hva den endelige rangeringen ville ha blitt, kan vi bare gjette på foreløpig. Men det er liten tvil om at Nikon D300 hører hjemme i d...

Comment: As the DSLR market has matured, so the manufacturers have had to adapt their marketing. Traditionally, models such as the Nikon D100 or Canon EOS 20D were aimed at the semi-pro or enthusiast photographer, who could invest enough cash and

Good: Build, interface, noise control, detail, LCD

Bad: Flat live view, little else
