Nikon D300 video tour

We're pleased to present a short video tour of the Nikon D300. This video discusses the D300's design, controls and Live View system. There's no need to download any new software - just press the play button in the middle of the screen below and wait for the video to start; you may need to press the button twice. The quality and any delay before playing may vary depending on your internet connection.

14-bit RAW and broad customisation.

Bad points
12 Mpixels not a major boost over 10.
No self-timer or histogram in Live View.
Anti-dust not effective in our tests.
