three separate CCD sensors—one for each basic RGB
color—and nice global shutters for no jellywobbles. And
they'll pay several thousand dollars for the privilege of
owning that equipment.
You, however, realize that the D300S is primarily a very
high-quality still camera with added video capabilities. Since
video is combined with still-image capability, you'll have
both with you when carrying your camera. You'll probably be
standing in a superstore parking lot one day, when an alien
spacecraft just happens to land. You'll get both still images
and cool video from the same camera. So what if in your
excitement while running from the alien's heat ray, you get a
few jellywobbles in your video? One of the rules for getting
great video is having a video camera with you. With the
D300S, you have one at all times—with no extra effort. You
do keep your camera with you, just in case?
My Recommendation: Try to hold your camera still and any
jellywobble effects will be greatly reduced. Use a tripod when
you can, or even a VR lens. Anything that helps stabilize the
camera will give you much higher-quality video.
