The editors didn't like

  • In terms of absolute image quality the D300S doesn’t offer much improvement over older models such as the Nikon D200 or D300. Its noise performance is good

  • herausragende Leistung, ausgezeichnete Bildqualität, solides Gehäuse, flexibel anpassbare Aufnahmeprofile, Videofunktion, integrierte kabellose Blitzsteuerung, zwei Speicherkartenslots
  • keine signifikanten Verbesserungen bei hohen ISO-Empfindlichkeiten im Vergleich zur D300, stellenweise umständliche Bedienung
  • Die Nikon D300s ist eine fantastische Kamera, die insbesondere mit ihrer hohen Serienbildgeschwindigkeit und der guten Leistung bei schlechten Lichtverhältnissen überzeugt. Allzu groß sind die Unterschiede zur D300 allerdings nicht. Wer auf...

  • Abstract:  Конечно, мы любим новинки. И надеемся, что все наши читатели любят новинки. Это приятное ощущение – одним из первых держать в руках крутую камеру/телефон/планшет и говорить: «Да это просто бомба!» Производители стимулируют спрос на новую продукцию с помощ...

  • Likheterna med föregångaren D300 är många, de största skillnaderna är den tillkomna filminspelningsfunktionen och dubbla minneskortplatser. Testarna kan dock inte rekommendera någon som redan har D300 att byta upp sig...

  • Abstract:  En del Nikonentusiaster blev besvikna när D300S presenterades. De hade hoppats på en helt nykonstruerad kamera, en D400. Frågan är om de verkligen hade rätt i sin besvikelse. Vi har svårt att hitta några större brister hos D300S.Det sägs att ett bra be...

  • Abstract:  Nikon D300 blev en mycket populär kamera på goda grunder. Den såg bra ut och lät rätt. Huset låg skönt i händerna och kameran var mycket användarvänlig, och inte minst tog den bilder av imponerande kvalitet, även under de svåraste ljusförhållanden. D...

  • D300S är mer än en enkel uppgradering - vi kan helt enkelt inte önska oss mer av kameran förutom (ännu) bättre hd-filmning. Nikon D300S är den bästa APS-C-kameran på marknaden i dag och därmed...

  • Kampen endte med en rekke uavgjorte dueller, men noen seire til Canon. Derfor vant Canon duellen, men med liten margin. Enten du velger Canon EOS 7D eller Nikon D300s, er sannsynligheten stor for at du vil bli fornøyd. De forskjellene vi har påp...

  • I denne testen har vi vektlagt bildekvaliteten på stillbilder, og tatt med muligheten for HD-video med i vurderingen som en bonus. Begrenset bildefrekvens og fokusmuligheter gjør ikke D300s til førstevalget for de som trenger video...

  • Abstract:  Der er ikke noget at sige til, at D300 blev så populært et kamera. Det så godt ud og havde den rigtige lyd. Kameraet lå godt i hænderne og var en fornøjelse at bruge, og så tog det imponerende gode billeder selv under de værste lysforhold. Det var dert...
