"The D300S is a persuasive reason to make
the jump into multimedia."
After using the D300S for a month, it has changed the
way I view the craft of photography.
I put this camera to the test in India's Thar Desert, with
blistering temperatures and high winds driving hot sand
that can destroy a camera. Thankfully, the D300S body

What has me most excited about the camera is its
superior video. I love the ease with which I can switch
between still images and D-Movie. I had tried other
cameras with video functions, but the D300S offers
major quality differences that allow me to create high-
end multimedia pieces. And I am able to use the great
NIKKOR lenses I already have, for gorgeous options.
The D300S is a very persuasive reason to make the
jump into multimedia.

"The best autofocus I've ever experienced."
This is the ideal outdoor camera — for both landscapes
and action shots. For sports and action, it is the
autofocus combined with high-speed continuous
shooting that stands out; in fact, I would say that
the D300S delivers the best autofocus I have ever
experienced. And for travel and outdoor shooting, it's
the lightweight, practical size and rugged overall build

that really shine.

The DX format, with an effective picture angle
(Switzerland)
equivalent to 1.5x the lens focal length, offers a big
advantage for distance shooting. And the new AF-S
DX NIKKOR 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED lets me capture
extreme wide-angle images too.
The enhanced D-Movie feature is another great
addition. I was able to fi lm fascinating band sequences,
from extreme wide to long telephoto, all with high-
quality stereo recordings.
It is a camera that lets me do everything.
