Black has no detail in my photos I shoot with a Nikon D300s and I am noticing that the color black has no detail. Is there a setting or technique I can use to prevent this? It is especially bad when there is very light or white areas and dark areas in the same photo. Thanks.

Try using the HDR technique by bracketing your exposure to recover the details in the dark portions of your image, this will come specially handy in contrasty (dark and bright areas within the frame) situations. Hope this helps. UB.

Your highlight to shadow ratios will never be perfectly balanced in extreme conditions. Fortunately for us, there is a way to get a little more detail in the shadow areas. There is an "Active D-Lighting" setting on the D300 which can be utilized to balance harsh conditions at the scene. (Refer to pages 167-168 of the D-300 manual for more details.) Capture NX Software, which should have been included with your D-300s, also has a "D-Lighting" feature which can balance the highlight to shadow ratio after the fact.
