I can honestly say that the follow-up, the 12.3-megapixel D300, is a worthy successor in so many ways that you may never want to put it down...Regardless of price, with everything the D300 offers, it easily replaces the D200 as our Editors' Choice D-SLR...No question, the D300 is hefty, and carrying it around for long periods of time with the lens attached is no picnic...Using...

The Nikon D300 is probably one of the most important releases for Nikon so far...The front body of the D300 looks fairly inconspicuous when set alongside the D200...There's also a handy plus point for the LCD display as it can be used to show live views if it's impractical to look through the viewfinder, meaning you can easily frame a shot without resorting to raising...

Superb overall picture quality
Low-noise images even at high ISOs
Very fast start-up time with no shutter lag
Water- and dust-resistant...Expensive even for its class
Steep learning curve
No in-camera image stabilization
Erratic 3D Focus...Aspiring photographers looking to make the jump from an entry-level digital SLR to something more professional have a lot of good options these days...But...
