Forget the D300... if you want a workhorse of a camera but can't afford £3,000 for the D3 - you want a D2Hs. It can rattle off 8fps, it is built like a tank [unlike the D300], and there really are benefits to 4.1MP RAW images. Printed to A4 size, they look just as good as 12MP camera images. If you never even print images, why buy a 12MP camera?
The D2Hs is a professional camera and feels like one. The speed at which the mirror returns to position after taking a shot is nothing short of phenomenal. It's literally just a click sound... unlike most other Nikons [and pretty much any Canon]. The screen blackout is as good as non-existent.
If you're just a hobbyist and you want a professional camera, this might just fit the bill. It's more than a few steps up the evolutionary ladder from the likes of every other camera except the D2Xs and the D3.

Ok, it is clear to me that D2H is discontinued camera. But here are my 2 cents...
I have owned 2 - Nikon D2H's since fall 2003 - and use them up to today. I paid $4,000.00 for each body. It is a work-horse camera. I took it with me twice around the world, from desert to under water. Never had any problem. Works great, feels great, performs well.
Some reviews trash D2H. Don't get discouraged by them. It is all only a war of numbers. Yes, it has only 4.1 Megapixels. True. But in 99% of times it is adequate for what you are doing. At 4.1 Mega pixels, it is still packed with 6 MB files / per photo. And if you shoot in TIFF format, you get high quality images. Most of the photos today are posted electronically anyway. That means resolution of around 72 dpi. As far as printing goes: I successfully print 13 inches x 19 inches photos from D2H over and over with exceptional quality. Nobody never complained about "low megapixel" count.
Now think carefully: when was the last time you printed 13 inches x 19 inches photograph ?
Unless you are fashion or commercial ad photographer and shoot for posters - don't be afraid to get D2H. That is true especially when you shoot sports or action photography. Nothing shoots faster than D2H. Today, you can purchase D2H, in great shape, for about $500.00 on eBay. That makes it hell-of-a back up camera. Get D2H - you won't be disappointed...
