To Stetson, this D300 is a P&S.. His opinion, stated in the manner above
I never suggested the D300 was a P&S. Far from it. However, you have sent me multiple PM's that were little more than laundry lists of why the D300 is better than any thing Canon makes. That's just not the case. The point that you have missed through out this thread and in private is that the D300 does take a technical edge over the 40D. However, **IF** you personally are unable to fully understand and utilize the format, 14bit RAW etc. and understand the features it provides you personally will not see any gain from the D300. All indications from you are that YOU will be using it as a P&S. I think it's already been said that for a newb the choice should have been easy.
As far as winning fans I very much doubt any one appreciates trying to help some one out only to be accused of being a fan boy.
