“The 12.3-megapixel Nikon D300 updates the older D200 with more resolution on a new CMOS sensor that promises improved noise control. The D300 is the first DSLR in Nikon’s line to include dust reduction, and sits between the $999 D80 and the $3,499 D2Hs. It has an awesome 3-inch live view LCD screen, as does the pro model D3, with some of the best resolution on the market – 921,000 pixels. Overall, the D300 is an excellent camera for the serious or semi-pro photographer who doesn’t mind getting involved in the minutae of photography. Point and shoot users won’t want to need the features it offers, but it’s a excellent camera for the serious (and well-heeled) shooter.”
