I have used a D300 for a few years now - very pleased with it - it has got wet, been dropped in the mud, dragged around rough countryside and been thrown around in the back of the car etc.
I'm off to S Africa on holiday and I reckon I need a back up or need to replace the D300 as my main camera for bird shots. I only use my DSLR for nature photography with a 300mm f4, a 70 200mm VR f2.8 and a x1.4TC. I do not use it for general or family photography, I prefer other cams for that.
I have been waiting and waiting for Nikon to release a NEW DX camera ......
Jessops are selling the D7000 body for about £640, which seems a bargain to me compared with the price of a new D300s.
What do you guys reckon, the D7000 has good reports, (I know that it may not be a weather proof as my D300), but at that price it must be a bargain
