Nikon focusing modes - Nikon D300/D700/D3 by Neil van Niekerk
"The current line-up of top Nikon D-SLRs offer a range of AF settings. The combinations in settings seem daunting at first. But with other settings on my D3 bodies, I keep it fairly simple. Instead of flip-flopping between numerous settings, I keep it simple by generally using the AF settings in just two ways. This depends on what whether my subject is static or moving …"

Nikon D300s Sent Into Space On A Weather Balloon - PopPhoto
"The camera was traveling in a styrofoam beer cooler from Wal Mart. The cooler was lifted into space using a 22 foot weather balloon filled with Helium. A parachute was attached to the cooler to slow and stabilize the fall of the cooler when the balloon eventually popped from lack of air pressure as it rose closer to the vacuum of space."

D300S review by Jens Christian Krause
"For nature photography though, the D300s certainly rules."

D300S review by Shun Cheung for Photo.net
"For “prosumers,” serious amateurs, and those who prefer the DX format, the D300S remains to be an excellent choice. In particular, for wildlife photographers and especially bird photographers who use very long lenses, the DX format has a major advantage."

D300S review at Shutterbug
"The D300S is an impressive DX-format camera for any Nikon shooter who wants and needs video capture (are you listening wedding photographers?) along with really high-quality image capture."

D300S review at Imaging-Resource
"The Nikon D300S brings the enthusiast flagship up to the standards of more recent Nikon models, including the D90 and D5000, as well as taking on the Canon 50D and Pentax K7 with their HD movie modes. Though the upgrade didn't include an increase in resolution, there's no question that the Nikon D300S continues to serve as an excellent photographic tool, one now capable of video as well."
