I recently purchased a Nikon D300s at my local dealer due to the additional features available. I have used several Nikon cameras, most recently a D200, with excellent results. I was shocked that the D300s had poor focus/resolution. It was tested by the camera shop, who concurred, and was sent back to Nikon for resolution of the problem. Standing by.

Like many reviewers, I researched this purchase for months. This is without a doubt the best prosumer dSLR available, and is actually used by many pros. The dual memory card and video capability are gravy on this primo camera. Purchased from Amazon (best price), no shipping or sales tax, and using the Amazon Store Card I got 12mths no interest. Don’t waste anymore time looking. If this camera is within your budget, just buy it. You will be delighted EVERY time you look at the amazing photos you took.

I am very satisfied with the Nikon D300S with the new 18-200mm VR II Zoom Lens. I own a Nikon D300 and a 18-200mm VR zoom lens, but the new camera and new zoom lens seem to take sharper pictures. Of course the D300S takes video too. And the new 18-200mm VR II zoom lens doesn’t creep. Overall I am very happy with the new purchase.

I’ve owned Nikons almost since they were first available here and I’ve always been happy with the performance of their cameras. But this is the first time I’ve been ecstatic over one. I switched from using the old N90s to a D90 two years ago and while I liked the camera, I was put off by the amount of plastic in what was, after all, a $1000 body. I also found the controls a bit hard to get along with — I’m not a fan of spending a lot of time paging through menus. When the D300s came out I had a chance to buy one and it proved an answer to my complaints about the D90.
The new camera is magnesium. It’s 8 ounces heavier than the D90 so it balances better with the heavy 2.8 lenses I usually use. To tell the truth I had a short period of frantic manual reading when I first started using the D300s. Nikon has shifted the controls around so that menu hopping is needed less often, and that’s a blessing. It offers about a zillion focusing and metering options – While I normally stick to spot evaluation the camera offers some 51 spots which can be used individually or in groups.
Comparing photos to the D90 I would say theres a definite improvement in the images, although it’s subtle. And there are more internal processing options as well. Yet another neat feature is that the camera takes two memory cards. This really is as far as you can take a 12 megapixel camera. Even though Nikon rates this a semi-pro camera the quality of image will answer most photographer’s needs for some time to come. One day Nikon will improve the D700 and I’ll switch, but until then I’m happy with the D300s (as a matter of fact that’s now TWO D300s’s).

This is my first digital SLR. I must admit it has sometimes been a little overwhelming, but I’ve gotten great pictures right from the start. I’ve had it for almost 2 months now and I am still playing around with it and learning about the features of this camera. I use this camera for outdoor wildlife and for indoor sporting events. I have not been disappointed in its performance. One of the more difficult things for me to settle on has been the various focusing options – and which to use in any particular situation. But one of the great things about the camera is the ease of changing the various options, like focus mode, so that you can easily experiment with different settings to see which works best. If you are looking for a great digital SLR, I highly recommend this one.
