For Those Who Are Doubtful of a D300s Replacement

Most facts have a conventional component. Yes, it's true that Nikon may have marketing and other motives in calling one camera the successor of another. But Nikon said no such thing about the D7000 in relation to the D300/s, and for various reasons would deny it. But you stubbornly insist that the D7000 is an $1199 camera because Nikon says so, when it is quite clear that the camera sells for $999. It seems you like to have your cake and eat it too.
