Like the Nikon D90, the forthecoming $1800 Nikon D300S DSLR has a 24-fps 720p HD video mode and it appears that some sample videos have already hit the web. Stu posted a couple here. The images appear to be largely jello-free and generally pretty sweet. Like the D90, this camera has a crop sensor, not full-frame. I’m not selling my Canon 5D MKII after this announcement, but it is nice to have another DSLR option to work with, particularly if tests show vast CMOS rolling shutter improvements and if the camera ships with manual controls (signs hint towards at least SOME manual controls). You can pre-order the D300S at Amazon, or keep an eye on B&H’s stock in September.

Via Scott Kirsner, here’s a handy webpage that compares all 15 video sharing websites, from Youtube and Vimeo to less obvious ones like vzaar. Looks like a fantastic reference, check it out here.
