Well, I finally overcame guilt and fear and picked up a D300 yesterday. Got a great local deal by combining it with a Lowepro CompuTrekker pack. $1700

Now if I can just learn how to take a proper picture with it.
Weather is really sucking (sleet/rain/snow).

What a coinkydink. I just ordered one this week and it's due tomorrow. I couldn't find anyone locally who would make a deal on it. I just bit the bullet and ordered it from B&H for full price. I guess we will both be busy next week studying and putting these puppies through their paces. I'll let you know how it goes with mine.

BTW: As usual, weather is beautiful here in San Diego (which is why I live here) .

Thanks, Tony. That is a very thorough and interesting comparison.

Congrads on your new cameras; I think you will be well pleased with this new generation of Nikon gear.
