My Conclusions
This is the last of the text-based menus we’ll cover in the
D300(S). We’ve been through a lot of menu screens in the
last several chapters!
Now, let’s examine the powerful Live View (Lv) mode found
in the D300S and D300. No longer are we bound to using just
the camera’s Viewfinder—we can use the Monitor screen
instead. Lv mode allows you to shoot at odd angles without
hurting your back. Or, you can get extreme closeups with an
appropriate macro lens and the excellent Contrast-detect
autofocus in Tripod mode.
In addition, with the D300S, we can make very high quality
720p HD movies by using the new D-Movie mode.
Sample D300S Image
Before we move on, here’s a highly manipulated sample “art”
image from my Nikon D300S and Nikkor 16-85mm
f/3.5-5.6G lens (see Figure 7-10).
