The difference between D300 is built quality, processor speed, built-in AF motor and user interface. So you might wonder why people want to buy D300? It is because D300 is more reliable and fast (in continuous shooting) it is also compatible with any lenses Nikon has (with or without AF-S / AF motor). Actually, the image quality is identical.

How is the image and sensor of a D5000 compared to D300? If the difference isn't that big, wouldn't it be a lot cheaper to buy a D5000? I hope you can answer me.

Although swivel lcd screen cameras are quite popular this year, I won't trade it with a good bright viewfinder. It is very different experience. Looking through viewfinder make you more focused in composing, You're basically looking the exact image. On the contrary, looking at LCD is looking at interpreted images, it might not have the same brightness or color like the actual subject. Viewfinder will also work better in bright daylight or low light condition. About the perspective, in low angle or high angle, swivel lcd has advantage, but i find myself only doing that less than 5% of the time. I use stairs, chairs, table, squat, laying on the floor when i feel it is necessary to get a good perspective. Technology will keep evolving, and probably the lcd screen will be better than viewfinder one day. I guess every people have their own way on shooting.

I won't buy a camera without one. Do you really confine yourself to taking photos where you can look through a viewfinder or have a good angle on the back of the camera?
