Finally got a working D300

12 years 3 weeks ago #222615 by Screamin Scott
I had bought a D300 off of eBay several weeks ago (Local business with an eBay store) but the AF wasn't working. Had sent it back & today got a replacement for the original one. AF works as it should on this one & what's nice is that it only has 3098 shutter clicks (previous one had 14K+)...Plus am awaiting an aftermarket vertical grip from a seller on eBay. Paid $32 for it & just looked & the seller is now listing the same grip for BIN @ $134.95 or best offer....Now to get some time to shoot. Have been having the interior of my house painted this past weekend & had no free time. Hopefully I'll get out this coming weekend for some testing...

Congrats on the new camera. I'm guessing this was a online retailer of some sort? That was good of them to take care of you. Let's see some photos with your new toy!
