Nikon D300: Compare prices

By Matt Oxley on 01/02/2008

More Nikon Australia reviews , RRP: AU$2899.00

The good:

  • Extensive manual features
  • Good quality photos on all settings
  • Large, clear LCD
  • Easy access to adjustment wheels

The bad:

  • Heavy and buljy
  • Awkward four-way jog wheel
  • Nikon's fish-eye lens blocks the pop-up flash

The bottomline:

At 825 grams, the Nikon D300 is more than heavy, but if you're a keen photographer and have an eye for detail, the D300 will prove itself with great image quality shot after shot. However, first time photographers and social-snappers might find this dSLR slightly overwhelming.
