wakesk8nkate, I am about to get a D300, and you should definately go with the Nikon. Much higher quality. It goes:

1.Canon
2. Nikon
56. Sony Smash

Sony makes the image sensors that go into the Nikon SLR's.


Just thought I'd throw that out there.

scott a PWNS! haha!!

erikmonty, didnt you have a sony? that one that you took the good ass pictures with? the one with the polorizer filter and whatnot?

pyroskater00, i have a D300! i absolutely LOVE it Very Happy

I also have a D40, I can vouge for it being an amazingly sharp, crisp picture just about everytime. Its such a good camera for the price, you cant beat it...
If you can afford it, and think your gonna get more serious in the future w/ lenses etc, I'd take one for the team and buy a D80, you wont regret it.
As for the sony, i know nothing about their DSLRs.
