Happy with it, and no intentions to pay a few more thousand dollars to upgrade to D700. I'd rather spend that money on more lenses.:)
 

D300 serve me very well so far...
i'm really hapi with it's performance, certainly won spend few thousands bucks more just to upgrade to a FX body heee... ;)
 

With this quality at ISO6400...what can I ask for...
Now, my photography skill has to improve to match the D300 ;)

Count me in, as one of the happy user of the Nikon D300!
 

When you have it, appreciate it. Please don't doubt your choice and start asking whether you like or not on what you are having. This is the always the negative side of human being....
 

Seems like most of D300 owners are happy with it becoz it realli rocks and also Nikon has done well in the marketing aspect of Post Purchasing Customer Satisfaction haha... :thumbsup: for D300

Hi...am very happy with my D300 EXCEPT for the problem of hanging...which came back to haunt me again last Friday when I was just shooting for a family event.

Anyone has any solution apart from bringing it back to NSC? See my previous thread.

Otherwise its a great camera....for the sake of my excellent DX lenses , I'll keep it working for awhile. Perhaps till Nikon can come up with a DX friendly FX camera i.e. one that does not go down to 5mp in DX mode...the day will come.
 

I love my D300, won't upgrade for D700. Rather keep the money for better lenses.
 

The high ISO benefit is a great help to me..

Really happy with the upgrade.. it really enable me to perform more..

seems to me your CF card got problem leh... have you try out other CF card brand? normally when your camera hang but then you still can focus and shoot, that means it's the cf card problem. Maybe your d300 got problem writing in your CF card.
 

- The default sharpening for the D300 is less than the D200. Hence, the pictures may look a little soft, so would need to bump up the sharpening by maybe +3 in your picture control. This is more for shooting in jpegs, but some people prefer to leave the sharpening to post processing.


What does he mean by this?

Not sure if you've missed the new firmware v1.03 for D300? See the thread "[thread=390772]D300 Firmware v1.03[/thread]"; maybe the battery issue was the culprit of your problem? HTH.

Myself, really happy with the D300 :thumbsup: My only gripe is that there's too much work for me and not enough time with the D300 :bsmilie:

That's true. But I believe they can do more than that by organising a class for all the D300 newbie to demonstrate the various / all the functions. Just like what SONY has done, by having an ambassador like Julian.W to share his experience of the Alpha System...

Something along this line will be just perfect as we have spent so much ;)
 

I dun have D300 so I'm not happy

haha ...cute ... =P

Soemhow I prefer not to go all the way for in-camera sharpening ... I prefer to do it in my workflow ...have created an action for it as well as the noise reduction. :)

Haha.. Yongxin, i vote for you!
 

I noticed that I was using a LEXAR on both occasions. Perhaps this time I'll switch to my SANDISK and see but don't quite understand the rationale.
