Plainly, the two cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The D300S having a bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field easier and the Nikon D300S will resolve greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures far more aggressively. The newer D300S provides a benefit in sensor technology.
