It's not a surprise seeing high-end dSLRs integrating HD video capability, as digital camera manufacturers continues to explore advance features they can incorporate to their products.
Like this new D300s.
So what does the "s" stands for?
"Sunod?" (in english "next," hehe)
or "Same?" ("same same but diff'rent," as per Thais)
or maybe "Successor?"
Okay, it means "superior," at least according to a photography website I saw. But what I did observed was, when a modern electronic device gets minor improvements, manufacturers add 1 letter suffix to the product's model name (eg. 6230-->6230i or D300-->D300s). And if it's a true product upgrade, they increases the model name (eg. D80-->D90, D60-->D5000, et al)
If you're a li'l upset why Nikon introduced D300s just to find that it's almost the same as D300 only with HD movie-recording capability as its key difference (to which it is really not a big deal to some photo-enthusiasts), well fret not! Because it's more than just that.
Check out this video:
What I especially like is the dual card-slot that can accommodate both the Compact Flash and SDHC :)
So what do you think? a worthy upgrade? Oh well, I'm sticking with LX3 c",)
ciao!
P.S. Did you notice how many "S"'s I used in this entry? haha!

Okay Nikon, are you in a rush or something? Because I'm kinda stupefied by how your products evolve. You were the first to introduce dSLR video-capability. And now a projector in a digicam? Well, I ain't saying anything.. I'm just.. overwhelmed, hehe
So when will the big contenders Canon, Panasonic, and Sony be launching theirs? It seems they got hit by Nikon's cannonball for not being the first to introduce this digicam innovation =)
I wonder what will Nikon be bringing to the table next.
Here's another first from Nikon.. the COOLPIX S1000pj..
