The touchscreen is great, works really well and is very intuitive.

I like the touchscreen

For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway

I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.
