We were impressed with the high definition picture quality on the D6300, in last year's 6 series we noticed some inconsitant performance in both blue tones and gray scales but those issues have been sorted out in the 2011 6 series models. Color rendition is realistic and greens and blues show none of the problems we noted last year. The AutomotionPlus improvements are also striking, in many cases these high hertz rate features can ruin a great movie with what we have termed the "soap opera effect" but it appears to be cured in the current D6300 series.
