[QUOTE="skater, post: 310660, member: 19158"] I thought I had posted this, but I guess not...So I'll throw this out there, not really answering your question but possibly helping: I went from a D70 to a D7000, which is a pretty large jump. As I understand Nikon's models, the D90 is what replaced the D70. I had very few problems doing everything that I did with the D70 - the learning curve for similar functions was practically zero. Naturally there were a bunch of new features to learn, but I was still good to go out and shoot pictures. Now I switch back and forth between both cameras and the only things that slow me down are the minuscule display of the D70 (holy crap, how did I deal with that for so long? - of course the D90's display is much larger than the D70's) and functions like disabling the flash are different; usually easier on the D7000. Adjusting most settings is pretty much the same. But to take a larger view, you could pick up the latest Canon and do fine, too. You know how to take pictures; operating the camera is a mechanical thing you'd pick up quickly even if you switched brands. It's like writing a program - after you know how program, picking up a new language is just learning the syntax; you don't have to re-learn how to program. [/QUOTE]
