[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 97471, member: 8705"] Well I've had the 600 for a week now having previously used the D300s (I still have that one in the bag for now). Very quick summary: Autofocus - Not a patch on the D300, especially in low light/contrast. No big surprise. It's fine but so far but not as quick or accurate. It hunts in low contrast dark situations which the 300 doesn't. Lack of pro body features like 9 shot brackets, buttons and switches missing - I knew this before I bought it so this is just a comment. Different body - Actually not as bad as I thought going from the chunky 300 body. It's in between the 300 and the 7000. Still feels and looks OK Dust - Yes it built up so I rattled off 3000 shots yesterday using the interval timer and cleaned the sensor. I'll keep you posted. I expected this so no surprise unless it continues. Image quality - FANTASTIC including high ISO pictures. Did I mention that it has FANTASTIC image quality? That's why I bought it and it's exceeded expectations. I'm in a hurry now but[URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/teerecks/sets/72157632259688025/"] here[/URL] are a few night shots with it from the other night. In summary, I think I like it a lot and the 24-120 F4 is doing a great job also. [/QUOTE]
