Well the same lens 18-200mm on the D200 has a better result, so I think is due to the focus on the D300

Hi All, I have done some test also by using the 18-200mmVR. With this lens the results are not very clear, as compared with the 105mm mentioned in the thread. Overall the pics looks more soft and the fine tuning at +5 seems to be slightly better. Here below the result @ 100%(setting 200mm...

Hi boyboy, could you please elaborate further about the inconsistency you have experienced? Did you got your D300 serviced at NSC? Thanks.

Great collection of bugs you have here. Nicely done.

Anybody knows if there is any official test chart recommended by Nikon for evaluation the camera focus or to test the focus fine tuning?

Wow very beautiful pictures, nicely done! Landscape get my vote.

and here the comparison at 100% for fine tune -15, -10, 0: As you can see the last test shows that the focus at fine tune=0 (camera default setting) is shifted from the focus area to the lower part of the shot. This confirm to me that something is not correct with my D300. Next step...

Hi geraldkhoo, tks a lot for your time & suggestion, really appreciated. I'll try with the suggested fine tuning and sincerely hope to solve this nightmare, i'm so depressed with the result so far! :cry: In one month I tested my d300 with different lenses 50mm1.4, 18-200VR, 80-400, 105VR...

Hi all, for me after 1 month I'm not happy at all. Moving from D200 to D300 is like entering a nightmare. Focus issue on all my lenses and grainy background even with my favoured 105VR macro! I tried with AF and manual focus but the results are really discouraging.:( Just learn about the...

Hi guys tks for the feedback. Surfing on the web it seems I'm not alone with this issue, indeed many others got focus issue with the D300 :( Well, this is really bad and confusing at the same time. Thanks geraldkhoo for your suggestion, and nice to see that you solve the issue. What...

Hi All, After using the D200 for almost 2 years I decided to upgrade to the D300, and I got it last month. I'm still testing it but it seems it's much more difficult to get good pics. Specifically all the shots come with a soft focus not very clear and sharp and with a grainy background...

Impressive, truly a beautiful picture.

Wow what a beautiful capture. Nicely done!
