Nikon D300

[gaz gun man]

The more I read about this camera, the more I want one!

The Noise, even at high ISO is amazing.

I am so glad that Nikon has improved its Battery Grips too, even if they are more expensive now, 8fps !!

Would love to join you, Gaz, but I have a D700 winging its way to me as we speak.

P.S. I also have the 14-24mm f2.8 on its way.....drooltastic stuff. Wide angle photography on a full frame sensor. Hand held low light photography too. Go Nikon!!!

Dave.

 

[gaz gun man]

you lucky, lucky *censored*

I was just thinking about the D700, along with that 24-70 f2.8, however i'd have to sell my 17-55 f2.8

14mm is wide!! Must see pics when you get it!

What body are you upgrading from?

 

[gaz gun man]

got your D700 yet mate?

you can get it to do 8fps without the battery pack by changing the bracketing options (theres how to vids on youtube) only drawback is you cant use the flash - dunno if it would work with a SB800 or SB900 on repeat mode though. I already have decent glass so the dream set up for me would be a D300, MB-D10 grip and a SB900

built in flash is very slow....

 

[gaz gun man]

I dont use the built in flash anyway.

why is it slow?

 

[Dave Spencer]

Just got my hands on my D700 yesterday. I have taken some low light indoor pics using a Nikkor 50mm f1.4 at ISO 200 with no flash and hand held. The results were far better than I hoped. Absolutely razor sharp. I now have to wipe all the drool off it.

jammy git LOL

charge time on the inbuilt flash... or possibly an overload protection system?
