D40 vs. D300 - Vote Now!

[Gdad]

As I said- vote now for the Nikon D40 vs. D300...

Or maybe I should say D40 w/18-135 vs. the D300 w/70-300 VR...

Or better yet- I should call this JPG vs. RAW.... or Straignt from the Camera vs Processed in CS3...

No wait- maybe i will call this the 7 year old daughter vs. the 38 year old dad- but lets not even go there...

Anyway- take a vote- I already know which one I like better. Peeking at the EXIF before you vote is cheating.

At least you know you have someone to pass the old stuff down to.

I certainly like #1 better. Guessing here, but I would have to say that she did a great job! Why did you spend so much on the D300?

Like and dislikes of a photograph can be so subjective. I was drawn to #2 and liked that photo better.

I like one better, it looks more natural to me I think thats why.

I went with #1. It looks a bit sharper, I like the exposure of #1 overall a little better, though the bird in #2 is exposed better IMO, but it dosen't look as sharp.


Looks like you've got some good friendly competition in the family there Jeff.

Sorry Jeff...

My vote goes to number one as well. If number two is the product of the D300, then it is obviously deeply flawed -- nay, dangerous, even. I think that for maximum safety, you should send it to me ASAP, before it kills (another photo) again! Only I have a foolproof method for disposing of it. Don't think -- send it NOW!

Need my address?

I went with #1.

 

[GabbyMom]

I'm drawn to number 2

i really like parts of both but voted for one overall. imo the bird in one is a little to dark but sharper and the back between the shoulders on two is a little to light even though imo the color is overall better..i like the reflection on 2 better. however, if your seven yr old did one she did a great job and you better lock up that d300 or it might find it's way into her hands soon ( my exif stuff is not working so i don't know)

Now, how do I find the Exif data since I already voted?
