There is a thread at a japanese forum with some new D300 samples at various ISO levels, with crops from shadow areas – looks promising 🙂
Comparison of Nikon D3 and Canon 1DMkIII

Two new comparisions between the high end models of Nikon and Canon are available, the first one at Popphoto.
The second one is a thread at Dpreview, starting out here and with pictures to compare here. UPDATE: A new thread comparing the two with new pictures!
Of course, one might question the sense of the comparision between a 21 MP and a 12 MP camera, nonetheless it’s interesting 🙂
New D300 samples

A lucky guy named Aquarius managed to put his CF card in a Nikon D300 at an exhibition. Of course not as astonishing as the D3 but surely better than the D200. But see yourself:
The high ISO samples are currently hosted here and the discussion about the pictures can be found here in the Nikon Cafe (in English) or here (in German). The full high resolution pics are hosted here.

I have to begin my list of Nikons best lenses with the one I personally like the most, the famous Nikkor 200/2 lens. Compared to other tele primes it’s rather small and light (at least at 2,9 kg it’s lighter than other primes) and it’s bokeh is gorgeous. And the fast f/2.0 really help’s a lot when you are an available light fan like I am. Even with teleconverts the lens delivers good results. While far from cheap it’s worth every penny.
Bjørn Rørslett, famous for his lens reviews, shares my enthusiasm about the lens. Click here for his review.
If you want to find good samples of pictures made with this lens and if you want to meet some nice people who share the enthusiasm for this lens visit the famous thread at the Nikon Cafe forum – already counting 194 pages (at least till today). Beware! Enter this thread at your own risk, maybe your wallet will become empty… 🙂
