    The high ISO abilities of these newer Nikons change a lot of things. For starters it becomes much easier to taken action shots as you can fix aperture and shutter speed and vary the ISO automatically. When I'm after fast moving birds or taking sports shots I'll do this.

    As for complexity, don't be fooled by this, the D300s is a far more complex camera again and the D3s/x leaves that behind. However, the biggest thing is there is so much more is at you finger tips where as on a D90 you have to delve into the menu to change things. So in reality, when you learn to use the camera, a lot of the functionality is simpler to access and makes the higher end cameras a joy to use.

    In my case, the more complex or options that have the camera the more that I like to use it in manual mode.
    Only for landscaping 90% of the time I use my camera in aperture priority.

    Couldn't agree more. Whilst I do like the camera I've found using a friend's D90 very frustrating after the D3s and D200.

    I find I shoot manual more often but aperture would be the next most common. The D3s is so easy to change settings. I also make use of the 4 custom setting menus.

    One of the things I'm pleased about with the X100 is that many changes to settings I need aren't buried in a sub-menu.
