Nikon D300 Digital SLR
By Mike Payne
Its time to ditch your compact digital and think about an upgrade. When it comes to digital photography, most photographers will tell you there’s nothing better than a Nikon. And for Nikon, there’s nothing better than the Nikon D300 Digital SLR. SLRs take a little skill than your point-and-shoot compact. They have a wide array of controls, interchangeable lenses, expanded mount modularity and plenty of other pro features. The Nikon D300, Nikon’s flagship, offers 12.3 megapixels, a 3 inch LCD display and the standard connectivity you’d expect from a high end digital camera. Keep in mind that the megapixel number is not a yardstick of quality, as the grade of components, lenses and pre-storage processing have the greatest impact on image quality. With that, you’ll find the D300 as the ultimate upgrade into a pro digital camera.
