Nikon D300 DX 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
Okay, I exaggerate. But the Hubble is not actually in this world. The D300 takes second place honors.
Canon owners ought to be green with envy...this one blows away even the 22MP EOS 1 Ds. Who needs that much data anyway? You want better resolution...get a view camera! (Or an old Leica M series or Hasselblad film cameras...) I have to wonder what the D3 has got that justifies the extra $3k?
This is the best camera around... Pro, prosumer, or consumer. The ONLY negative I can find is that it won't take my D80's remote shutter release, either cable or IR. Also, it isn't sensitive to IR, just like the D80 wasn't. Otherwise, more features than you can shake a Pentax at. Takes all the old Nikkor lenses, going way back.
I guess I will have to sell my D80, even though it has a lot of useless idiot modes. Hopefully, Nikon's next move will be a full-size sensor prosumer model. Get more detail about Nikon D300 DX 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only).
