I was at a camera store with a buddy today who is looking at getting the D300S. We were talking to the general manager of the store who seemed like he was pretty knowledgeable and knew what he was talking about. We started talking about the focusing systems on Nikon vs. Sony cameras and how they are when focusing on moving objects (As me and my buddy shoot a lot of Autosports such as drifting) and he said that Nikon has the BEST focusing system out on the market.
I then asked him how it compared to Canon, and this is where the conversation got interesting. He said that the Canon system is only really good at focusing on objects that are moving at up to 30MPH, and that the Nikon system is rated at focusing on objects moving up to..... wait for it.... 150MPH.
Anybody here have input on this or any contradictions? If it's true, I'm pretty happy to own a Nikon
