[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 258357, member: 8705"] When I got the D800 I kept my D300s for a year as my backup camera. My wife and I love the D300 cameras. After a year I hadn't found a situation where I thought I'll leave the 800 at home today because the 300 will be better for this. Even in DX mode the 800 has more resolution. My wife also upgraded from the 300 to 7100 about 6 months ago. Same thing, the 300 stayed on the shelf. A few weeks ago we sold both 300 bodies. She put the money to a 70-200 vrii and I put mine to another 7100 that is backup for her and wildlife for me. The thing is I will pick up the 7100 over the 800 for some activities as it's a better tool for the job. The truth is it seemed a big shame for a great camera like the 300 to sit in a shelf gathering dust when somebody else will likely cherish it. [/QUOTE]
