Well, yes, but it doesn't say at what file size. For example, my
D80 is rated at 3fps, but the buffer is 100% loaded at only 6 frames
of RAW (NEF), while it's good to go 100 frames of fine/med sized jpeg
files. The D 300 Brochure doesn't specify.

I'm not a D300 owner, so I can't furnish a S/N, that's why I
asked while everone was comparing D300 features...., figured someone
whould have the info handy, I think I already have my answer though,
thanks,

Then go here, and download the non-printable manual. You do not need
to be registered for that. However if you use your serial number for
your present Nikon camera, you can register, and down load the
printable version. You can also ask questions from Nikon directly.
