Even today, still a really nice camera
6 of 6 found this helpful The Nikon D300 is, admittedly, outdated in some respects to the newest DSLR's. However, for someone going from a D80, like myself, who is looking for a significant upgrade in camera capability and who is on a budget it is a good choice. The step up is made easier using Program Priority mode which functions somewhat like Auto mode on consumer level cameras. This way the camera does most of the work and this is a pretty smart camera. I am still learning how the D300 works so I am not qualified to do an in depth review, but for someone who was really happy with their older D80 (it finally gave out on me after 13 years) this is one heck on a good camera.
