Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daveash" data-source="post: 1203591" data-attributes="member: 29300">D300 Tamron 200 to 500An interesting thread in which I feel compelled to participate. I have a D200 which much to the scorn of Nikon Fanatics I dared to criticise. I now have a D300 and I am pleased as punch with it, especially working with my Tamron 200 to 500. The focussing is fast (relatively) and does not hunt end to end as it did with the D200. Even when using the 1.4 telecon it still focusses well and produces sharp images. The bird pics I've taken so far have all been in shadow so are not really a good representation of the camera's abilities but the attached battle between a hummer and a marinbonda give some idea of the capabilities. So far the D300 has restored the pleasure I had with my D70.</blockquote>
