Book Reviews of Nikon D300 Digital Field Guide

Book Review: Nikon D300 Camera body
Summary: 5 Stars

I found this camera very easy to opporate, even with many multi-function buttons. Having used a F3 for most of the last 20 years and a D50 for the last couple. Everthing just felt normal and well built. I also purchased the battery pack, as I pefer to use AA batteries to power the camera. I'm more than happy with the purchase and expect this camera to last me for many years to come.

I'm experimenting with the various formats (currently RAW) and having a blast using the different features of Photoshop, shooting still lifes in the studio and spring flowers. I no longer currently make my living with Photography, but I would feel comfortable taking a couple D300's to any shoot.
