Good practical review, worth the read if you are interested in the D3/D300

cheers,

That is actually a pretty good read. I like how he doesn't give the D3 the automatic thumbs up and specially like the fact that he thinks a D3 + D300 (or D2Xs) would be a good combination...

I like how he attacks the LCD screen with a sharp knife and cuts off the rubber caps from the plug sockets. :P :P

I have still stuck a piece of screen protector on my LCD. Better safe than sorry.

Thanks for the link André. Fascinating reading and onother quality review from the Bjorn. One stand out for me was this quote " If you have the money and the inclination to purchase a D3, but don't know exactly why, then something else should be on your shopping list.."
