D90 Vs D7000

[josh23457]

i currently have a D90- but its now being repalced under warranty! As a result im torn between 2 states of mind

- Keep the D90 my nly issue was its appauling build quality - better luck on the 2nd one

- Pay some extra cash and upgrade to the D7000

Anyone have much experience with the D7000??

you must gotten unlucky dude. i've got a D90, it's been out in the rain, dropped, abused and mroe. would have about billion shots on it and it's marching as strong as day one.

having said that, I've played with a couple of D7000 and it's a clear upgrade. Work out if you want to spend the money though. It might be the D90 is everything and more than you want.

Totally upgrade to a D7000. They actually feel really nice in your hand (I'm a canon person) and the upgraded AF and IQ is great. In the end, you sound like you're going to upgrade anyway!

Ended up going the D7000 My D90 was almost 2 years old and i really didn't want to get stuck with that technology for a few more years. Nothing wrong with the photos it took i was always blown away, but with higher IQ and Upgraded AF it just made sense. Its nice its also a little heavier and pretty much the same size with button locations so nothing to really get used to!!!!!

D7000 is a awsome camera mate bought One for his overseas trip and got awesome shots you won't regret it

I recently purchased a D7000 and I'm lovin it!

Does everything I want and just 'feels' good to use.

Just need to get a couple more things like a 50mm prime and an tokina 11-16mm ultra wide lens.

I would get the 35mm 1.8G prime lens, D7000 having a cropped sensor.

35mm on a cropped frame camera is equivalent to a 50mm on a full frame camera, which is near vision.

AF-S 35mm f1.8 is a very nice affordable lens. Would be even better on a D7000 as it takes beautiful pics on my shitty d40x.

I did have a Sigma 50mm f1.4 which was unreal, just beautiful bokeh. BUT it had a mis-focus issue with the d40x, had it replaced with a 2nd lens and same issue.

A higher spec camera can calibrate for this i was told.

I think it was focused on her chin instead of her eyes.

45degree test showed the problem

F1.4

F2.8
