Thom Hogan has reviewed the Nikon D300, a 12.3 megapixel DSLR camera that offers 6fps continuous shooting and a 51 point autofocus system.

” Here’s a surprise (at least it was to me): the D300 has more dynamic range than the D200 and D2xs. Measurably more. Whereas most of the previous Nikon DSLRs all were in the 7 to 7.5 stop range of usable dynamic range, I’ll put the D300 squarely in the 8 stop usable range, perhaps even a bit more than that, especially if you’re shooting NEF (Imatest reports a full stop difference between a raw file converted in Lightroom and an in-camera JPEG, all else equal). Still not Fujifilm S3/S5 range, but clearly better than the D200.”
