Yes they did. I hope they appreciate the step up from D300's to full frame D810's

To soon to tell how they will work out. I have had a personally owned D800 since they came out. Incredible colors and tone. Even more impressive files sizes If you are moving into 36MP RAW full frame from crop frame 10-15MP then go ahead and buy a USB3 card reader and a computer that can move that kind of data around. The 5 fps is kind of slow for sports, you have to get your timing right.

Oh and I have a file on my desktop named "anyone can take good photos with a pro camera" that contains crap. The latest works are taken with the D810 and a $2000 Nikon lens. With $5000.00 in his hands the guy turned in four portraits taken at four feet outside in good light. And there is not a thing in focus in the photos. Nothing. I would have to look at the settings in the exif data at the office, but I remember wondering how anybody could come up with that combination of shutter speed, f stop, and ISO.

Check back in a few months and we will see how it is going.
