“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 

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.

“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 

is well sealed and it worked impeccably throughout.

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.
