Nikon has just upped the ante in the world of DSLR cameras by unveiling the D3 and D300 models, giving professional photographers even more headaches when it comes to choosing their next purchase. The D3 is a 12.1 megapixel monster that features a new FX format full-frame CMOS sensor, a 3″ LCD viewfinder, a couple of CF storage slots (neat!) for backup and copying purposes, and a superior response time that shoots up to 9 frames per scond. The more affordable D300 features 21.3 megapixel resolution and the same 3″ LCD viewfinder, using CF as the storage medium of choice albeit having only one of such slots. The D3 and D300 will retail for $4,999.95 and $1,799.95 respectively.
