Looking for the weekend, see my images at the location below, please leave a comment if you like what you see, I would love to hear from you.:):
Terrific set Harry. I'm sure glad to see that you're happy with it and getting great results. I think it's going to be a great camera, given the limited amount of time I've had with it. Anixous to see what you do with your D3 when you get it.
Looks like Nikon have sorted out high ISO noise big time.
Oh yes congrats on your new cam too
Thanks Al, thh DF300 is a breakthrough with noise for Nikon.

I've been afraid to click and view this topic, very afraid, but I just couldn't resist.
And reading "I thought the D300 would be an incremetal improvement over the D200 I was absolutely wrong, its much, much more than an incremental improvement", is what I was afraid of learning...
I can feel myself being lifted by these words, as my wallet tries to escape from my back pocket...
Anyway, I'm actually thrilled to learn about the D300, and hope to eventually have one and keep my D200 as backup.
Your D300 bird photography is amazingly impressive, WOW!!!
Great shots, Harry. Nice to see the D300 is living up to its promise. The high ISO stuff looks great. If I didn't have so much Canon glass, I'd consider jumping ship.
Harry, great posts!!! I have to agree that the snowy @ 1000 is a gorgeous shot! Were you shooting these in aperature priorty or full manual? I should have a chance to try out my D300 tomorrow. I took a burst of pictures of nothing yesterday...oh my how lovely that high speed shutter sounds!!!!
Wrong again veggie boy!!!!! I can't handle it. :cry I decided to check out the AF fine tune feature today. I spent 20 minutes going through the menus and I couldn't find the damn thing. I looked it up in the manual and I still couldn't find it. Then I realized I was holding my D200. :bash
I came late to this thread. First, Congrats on the brand new camera, enjoy!!! So fun!
Second you had me laughing out loud at this one, I can see myself doing the same thing, except I don't ever have my "old" camera around it seems once I get a new one, but I can see myself doing that! Thanks for the chuckle!
wooh wooh!!!!...got my d300 this week too.....however with working overtime so much , it's dark when I'm home so it looks like my first shots are gonna be at the ymca of women doing zumba works for me
**If I keep shooting, I'm bound to hit something**

Thanks Ben. Life sure has been grand since I stopped working. I'm retired you know. :cavig

Thanks Graham, I wnet out today and fooled around with the 21 and 51 points focusing and I'm more impressed now than i was before. The focusing on the D300 is a marked improvement.

BTW, love that sunset shot.

Thanks Christina, I shoot in aperture priority with matrix metering and I then make EV adjustments as necessary. Good luck with your D300.

THAT is too funny! Great series Harry- I am loving my D300 also but have a LOT to learn about it coming from a D80.
Thanks Jeff and congrats on your D300.
