[QUOTE="TedG954, post: 503259, member: 9701"] Take this for what it's worth, which is approximately two cents. I am anal when it comes to sharpness and noise. I want totally sharp and zero noise. Over the past Summer, I participated in several photo competitions. The judges, in most cases, had very respectable credentials. In those competitions, it appeared that noise wasn't a consideration in the judging and sharpness didn't carry the weight i gave it. I learned a lesson. I'm now shooting with higher ISOs and learning to "accept" noise. With that said, I'd put my $1000 in the best lens I could find, and keep the D7000 a bit longer. My therapist said I should make significant progress when I can finally accept ISO 3200. Ewwww. [/QUOTE]
