Nikon Announces D300 & D3 (FulFrame) + Lenses


Recommended Posts

51 point AF!?!? :o

D300 seems to be the better body compared to the D40 but it's also $500 more.

But still..

922k pixel LCD. 6fp/8fps (battery/ac) buffer, 14 bit, 100% frame coverage!

Sad it's not a full frame like the D3 (though that's $5000 compared to the $2500 5D).

Competition is good though! :)

it seems like it nikon doesn't make camers w/ ISOs lower than 200? Correct me if i'm wrong.

HDMI output!? That's crazy.

So are all of nikon's new cameras having the AF motors put in the lens, so that the old lenses won't AF? Or was that just the D40/80?

no, even the 80 can drive lenses without motors. It is just the D40 that can't.

eh, I'm only 5th on the D300 waiting list on my fav store ;)

And I'm happy that the D300 isnt full frame! FF's are way too tricky and cost you more since you have to change your lens. Plus, having the 1.5 factor is nice with tele lens :)

whoo /me sits and waits

D3;

'ISO 25600' expandable... !

11FPS

3" liveview screen

51 AF points... someone went crazy in the Nikon design shed.

I'm a 'canon man', and even i want one!

.

Nikon definitely have the upper hand at the moment.

Man I love the d300! I really really want to see what 256000 ISO looks like.

Just like we all pooed in our pants when we heard about the 10fps 1dmk3, I think I will wait until people have them in their hands before I make real judgements. I hope it doesn't have something like an AF issue.

The D300 won't have ISO 256,000. Only the D3 will have it.

D200 goes down to 100 Iso....200 is more than fine tho, and its very smooth....so there you have it..I'm ****ed cuz i just got my d200 about 3 months ago....I would get the d3 for my model shooting, but I dont need all the features it has...will definately go for the d300 tho.

256k ISO? X-ray vision? o_O Does it emit radiation?

it's 25.6K iso...get it right...and do you know how much f'in noise thats gonna introduce? you're shots are gonna look like you took a picture in a radiation chamber.. better bust out neat image to clean that shot up

    • The memory and nvme can be swapped and upgraded with standard parts. But the GPU cannot, which is the weakest part of the box. It's a dead product at these prices.
    • Sounds like the debloated build you are running is missing some components that the Photos app and Snipping Tool rely on.
    • Apparently, Microsoft doesn't use water in their taps, washrooms or clean their facility. /sarc
    • Wow, throwback.  VERY VERY briefly - but realised that it wasn't the language I needed for the tasks I was taking on.
    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
