Nikon D300 DX 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
I bought the D300 through Amazon in Sep 08. Work & other commitments left me no time to put it to the test until Christmas break and WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT. I insert freshly charged Nikon battery and the next day the camera says battery discharged WITHOUT taking any photos. This is referred to on numerous internet sites as the "low battery problem". I've been struggling for the past two days trying to fix this and other problems with little success.
If you're interested in buying this camera, there a lot info out there about problems with the batteries or power to the camera. Buyer beware. I've found references to these problems dating back to Jan 08. Strangely, there there is absolutely nothing on the Nikon service site about these problems. Or maybe not strangely, I sent them email 30 hours ago and I'm still waiting for Nikon's 24 hour response.
Next step I guess is to find how to return the camera through Amazon.
