"Bully" comes from Rockstar Games, who gave the world the "Grand Theft Auto" series and so it's no surprise that this game is a watered-down version of the GTA games. Taking place in the fictional New England boarding school of Bullworth Academy, you play as Jimmy Hopkins, the tough kid who goes fr

This lens is overrated. I just took two shots of newspaper print with my XSI camera in low-light. One with this 50mm f1.8 lens at 1/160 and f2.8, and the other with my 18-55mm IS kit lens at 1/40, f5.6. The resulting image with the 18-55mm kit lens was much sharper. So my simple test proved (t

The BEST Nikon camera yet!
5/11/2008
I previously owned the D80, and could never get the sharpness that I was looking for in my pictures, they all looked soft? I bought almost every lens that Nikon makes, and could never get that razor sharpness that I desired, until I bought the Nikon D300. Wow, the Nikon D300 is INCREDIBLE! The problems I had with sharpness, were related to the SENSOR I believe, and it makes sense! Yes, the D80 takes "good" pictures, but the D300 takes INCREDIBLE pictures. The D80 has a CCD sensor, and the D300 has a CMOS sensor, is this the difference? I don't know, but my D300 takes razor sharp images! Wow. I sold my D80, and I've never been happier with the D300!

Great camera for the keen enthusiast or pro
5/9/2008
Having been used to using the more advanced settings of my D70 the first day I purchased the D300 I had to do a photo shoot of a Salsa class and took the worst photos of my life. Day two I read the manual and spent much time getting used to the D300 and customising the settings. My photos since then have been stella.

Best bits compared with the D70:- Better colour, lower noise, better screen, better dynamic range.

The worst part of the camera is the sensor cleaning which is not really up to the task - poor at best.

Fantastic camera but you need to learn how to use it otherwise your photos will be dire. All the main things that you need to change are on the outside of the camera.

In low indoor light I fould that the hand held pictures were a little dark and had too much image noise(ISO 3200 using aperture priority setting). One tip is to up exposure compensation by +0.7 or more which gives very quiet pictures which you can then post process to -7.0 if you wanted.

The dynamic range of the camera coupled with the real time "Adaptive D-Lighting" means that I don't have to use my gradual grey filters so often.

For me the 12MP is not such an advantage as I never crop or print poster sized pictures. My Brother used a 6MP camera (D50) and actually produced poster sized photos for his company which they were very pleased with and paid him alot of money for. One of my customers was paid ??3000 when he snapped 80 photos of a balloon going over his house with a D40. He approched the advertising company, his solicitor negotiated the deal - wow.

For the avaerage photo taker I would recommend the Nikon D40 which is an absolute bargain price and takes fantastic pictures. If you need fast shutter cycle times, complete and instant control of your photos and a rugged camera than this is one to consider. Highly recommended for the right user.

Nothing can compare with D300
5/3/2008
I started Nikon digital cameras with the Coolpix E5700, 5200, D70, D80 and D40. Enjoyed the technology improvement. Until I got my new D300, I was shocked by it's new EXPEED image processing engine. The color rendition is so dramatic and extraordinary. The very low noise high ISO and 51-point AF system made this machine a must to own. The controls are so easy to use and quick to make any adjustment you want. They are all at your fingertip. The rigid body and handfeel make me want to shoot all the time. I enjoy every minute of having it even I am not a professional photographer. Only thing I regret is that I should have bought it earlier.
I am still learning all the customizations I can set for different shooting situations.
If you are in the market for one, do not hesitate, this is the one you want.

Upgraded from D200
4/28/2008
I own a D200 and a D300. I do a lot of Macro work outside while hiking. The D300 focuses much more reliably for this. I also like the that there is more dynamic range.
There are still things I like better about the D200 which is one of two reasons I deducted a star from a 5 star camera. One of the things I liked about the D200 was the multi-focus point area focus. The D300 can simulate this, but but exactly.
The other deduction is that Amazon did a lousy job of packing the camera. The camera box was tossed into a large box with just a few air filled packing bubbles. It could bounce around in the big box. Luckily it is packed well from Nikon and has no issues.
