I got mine too at Lords!
My "chong" battery for D50 can't be use for D300 :bigeyes: SMART Camera:bsmilie::bsmilie:

Got mine from Image marketing Lucky Plaza $2600 incl GST. Capture NX1.3 bundled. Still learning the features. Upgraded from D40 so relatively steep learning curve. Got spare original batt for $55. Is this cheap? :think:

Good deal...:thumbsup:

Anybody agree that there should be an option for auto ISO off in Manual mode, or at least customizeable with Fn button?

It doens't make a lot of sense to me for shooting in manual but ISO shifted to correct the exposure.

Or it already has it and I don't know how to use it? :dunno:

 

[jamesong]

It is there, you can switch off auto ISO and shoot with manual + your own ISO.

You have to read the D300 bible.

I completed the manual (I always did that :embrass
I mean, switch off is ok, is there a faster way? Even I put it in my shortcut menu, I still find it slow.
Any faster way? An additional option which turn off the auto ISO when switch to manual mode, or customize Fn button?

I think that's the only way to get what you want other than turning off the auto ISO. ;p I don't use auto ISO (since it's so easy to change ISO) so it doesn't bother me.

D300 with 18-200VR or Tokina 12-24 good for travel & landscape? Anyone? Dun tempt me and say both ya ... I just might :devil: BUT wanna seek advice 1st. :sweatsm:

 

[acroamatic]

I have both, so I can tell you that when I last travelled, I had the 18-200 on most of the time.

You seem pressed for budget, so get that. Unless you are only going to shoot landscapes during your travels.
