Bottom line
The Nikon D300s is a great camera, especially if you need the burst speed or slightly improved low-light focus, but if you don't care about video you might consider looking for a really good deal on a D300 and using what you save to splurge on a good lens.
An excellent dSLR for experienced shooters or Nikon professionals looking for a relatively cheap option, the Nikon D7000 delivers on almost all counts, including the company's best shooting design to date.
The Nikon D5200 makes a great choice for family and vacation photographers.
The Nikon D600 is a really good camera for the money, as long as you're willing to shell out for the lenses that can do it justice.
While it's still a great prosumer dSLR, the D7100 may only be worth the extra cash if you need a faster Nikon right now.
