The Nikon D300 is a very interesting digital SLR camera on paper and as far as I am concerned it is one of the most important introductions these days. It has more features than I know how to use, guess its time to take a digital photography class, and is ready to shoot all the time. It images are studio flash at ISO LO1 (100) and 200, tungsten exposures from 400 to 6400 (all with NO noise reduction) then 6400 at Low, Normal and High NR.
The Nikon D300 D-SLR camera boasts a self-cleaning sensor unit, which vibrates at high frequencies to remove any loose dust on the surface of the sensor’s optical low pass filter, and has recently become available and is receiving a lot of attention since then. It digital SLR EXPEED system features 14-bit analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion with 16-bit image processing, both of which contribute to delivering results with Nikon’s signature ‘look and feel’ of rich accurate colours, smooth skin gradations and exceptional detail. It is the latest prosumer model to pass through our review lab. The Nikon D300 is the successor to the hugely popular D200 DSLR camera, and Nikon certainly haven’t rested on their laurels, adding a veritable wealth of features to their new mid-range model, and is a midsize digital SLR that’s built like a tank — mostly.
The Nikon D300 is loaded with the latest professional technologies designed to produce images of the highest quality. It has detailed control over white-balance including automatic white-balance, preset white-balance , manual white-balance and color-temperature, and is no different but unlike the live view features you may have seen in other brands, Nikon actually provides two live view modes for greater flexibility. It camera without the additional MB-D10 grip is small and lightweight, only 1.8 lbs.
