The last few days I've been out wandering the city with both my D7000 and D800 around my neck. One with a long telephoto and the other with a wide angle to normal zoom (24-70mm). It's been nice having to two cameras with different lenses on, no longer having to stop and swap out lenses. But there's one feature on the D7000 that I had forgotten about. It's the ease at which you can knock the mode dial off to an unexpected mode and/or get the dial knocked between modes. It's so frustrating to see something developing pull up the camera and start shooting only to find you're no longer on A but rather on M or U1 and taking way over exposed or underexposed images. I don't know why Nikon didn't put some kind of lock function on this dial.
On the positive side, I love the shutter sound that the D7000 makes compared to the metallic slap of the D800. Very pleasing sound as long as you're on the mode that you wanted to be on!
