Whether you purchase a 40D or a D300, both camera's are more than capable of shooting RC cars. There is no question. Both will provide great high iso performance. I'm a Nikon D200 user myself. Personally having held a Canon 30D (very close to the 40D), while i prefer the general ergonomics of the D200, I found the Canon had a better sized grip. And the Canon felt very solid in the hand as well.
I still think trying both out in a shop to see which feels better in the had is the best bet. If I had done as I say, I would have bought a 30D rather than the Nikon!
Cheers!

Can someone please tell me to just go buy the Canon 40D and be grateful I can spend twice as much on a camera as I spent on my first 2 real cars!
I went to Meadowhell tonight and fondled a 40D and thought it was nice - much better than the Sony alpha - but didn't bother with the D300 as it was out of budget, until I got home, bugger! |
