What can I say--these are what my printer takes. They work fine, and seem to last a long time. They do what they're supposed to do on my cheap HP printer. Nothing dazzling, nothing horrid.

An interesting story, brought together by interesting talent, falls oddly short of expectations in this action movie with fantasy elements.
The stall is set out early, as an intro shows Hayden Christensen discovering his ability to teleport (jump) from place to place. He indulges himself with

Okay- take the Movie's core as it is- the Jackie Chan and Jet Li part. Fine Kung Fu flick. No problems with that. Then- mix in an almost laughable combo of Never Ending Story with Karate Kid. I guess if I were 12 or 13 this would be fine- I wouldn't know it's a knock off, but being a child of the 80

NO US Warranty
8/8/2008
I eagerly awaited this camera only to find that it is an Australian serial number not a US. This means if it breaks, that Nikon USA will not fix it.
I am really upset.

Sayonara to L glass
8/8/2008
I owned both the Canon Rebel XTi and 40D with 24-70 F2.8 L and 70-200 F4 IS L and just used them as a casual amateur photographer. I was very happy with the images they produced. I was even strongly considering the 5D when along came the D300 w/ 18-200 VR lens. We all know Canon and Nikon regularly leapfrog each other. But I seriously believe 2008 is Nikon's year. I compared the image results from the 40D and D300 and the latter just trumped the 40D hands-down on every aspect. It was close to film quality. Colors were more vivid, ergonomics are MUCH better, a rockin' LCD screen, dust and weather sealing, 51 AF points, 100% viewfinder coverage, vital controls like flash exposure compensation are not buried in the menu, ISO 1600 images with little decrement in quality, etc. Taking photographs is lots of fun with this bad boy. Another big reason for the switch was the 18-200 VR lens. Instead of changing lenses and risking dust to get in the sensor, I just leave this lens on and it does most everything I've ever wanted in a walkaround lens. One downside is that my Canon buddies have labeled me a "traitor," and always give me a hard time for it, but I can live with that.

The D300 is a superb camera.
8/7/2008
I've been using the D300 for slightly over a month now and so far I haven't been disappointed in any way with how it's performed. At the beginning I wasn't getting pictures as sharp as I would have liked them but that was mostly my fault and since then I've refined my technique and I don't think I've ever seen sharper results. The camera is fast and paired with a faster CF card you can just keep shooting and never run out of buffer space shooting in raw.

If you're coming from an older camera like the D70s like I did, some of the new features may take some getting used to, the biggest change was the focus points. They did away with Closest Subject, the Dynamic Area focus is now quite complex with options for 9/21/51/51 point 3d area tracking options and the third option is "Big White Rectangle Mode" Ken Rockwell refers to it as such and since I can't remember it's actual name, I'll just refer to it that way. BWRM uses all 51 points automatically and the camera decides what should be the focus point, so far it's worked great for me, the things I want in focus are usually sharp, sometimes it gets it wrong, but since the camera can't read my mind, I don't mind really. Unfortunately the camera can sometimes be bogged down in 51 point mode if there's a really busy scene. The focus can sometimes lag before taking your initial shot but if you choose a mode with less than all 51 points then you'll never have this problem.

Battery life on a single EN-EL3e seems to be around 400-500 shots with heavy LCD usage which is much better than I thought it would be. Still, I ordered a second battery and the MB-D10 grip so I can continuously shoot without stopping to change batteries. I'll probably do an update to this review once the grip is here.

I don't think I can say anything bad about the camera, it's definitely a step up from the D70s, using the D300 exclusively then trying out the D70s makes the D70s feel like a child's toy. The D70s is still a great camera that I took some wonderful pictures with but I'd never go back to it after using the D300.

Pull out all the stops for this great camera
8/7/2008
The Nikon D300 is everything the advertising claims and more. I own a D200 and as such a person you wouldn't think I would need to upgrade to a 300, however, I needed a second camera and thought what the hey...lets get the newer one. And, it makes the d200 seem like a kids toy. The options are even better laid out, the reaction time is faster, and the quality of the image is unreal. This camrea is all Nikon claims it is and more.
