i went for the 300 based on spec.
4.5 fps compared to 6fps on the 300
11 autofocus points compared to 51 on the 300
Those were the two main points for me.
personally i value those two much more than a video mode. I know alot of people see it as a great advance, but I will wait until it improves more until i invest in the system. I have no use for video anyway.
There is very little between the two(apart from the price) but i had to follow my heart (cheesy or what?) and go with the camera i have wanted for ages. so it just had to be!
I am very happy with it, shots are crystal clear even at high ISO. its a great piece of equipment. Next up a wide angle lense
