[QUOTE="emoxley, post: 36810, member: 8006"] I wasn't trying to refute them. I was going over them, and seeing if the differences were important to someone like me. Claudia said in her first post that she's a beginner. In my mind, that means that right now she is average, like me. She may become pro. That may take a few years, unless she gets very serious about it, to get to that point quicker. By the time she becomes pro, the D400 will be out, and she may want that, or by then, maybe the D800. Actually, it seemed more like Joe was trying to talk her into buying his D300s, that he's been trying to sell. Joe and you both put down the D7000 by talking about how it will fall short, and leave you wishing for more. Well, as we discovered by the 11 point breakdown, the only way it falls short is if you're going to use it as a pro sports photographer's camera. Actually, I think most of them use D3 or D3s full frame cameras, with an $8000 lens on it. I doubt they even bother with a crop sensor D300s. Their backups are probably a D700. So, I guess I get kinda defensive when people put down my gear for no good reason. Another reason for wanting to know the differences, so I'd know if the put down had good reason. Nope, sorry, no good reason. I never put down the D300s. I just said the differences didn't really mean much to me, especially at the extra cost of it. Down the road, everyone that has a camera made up to this point, is going to wish for something more. It's human nature. Always want newer and better. Joe is perfect example, selling his D300s so he can get a full frame camera. Evidently it doesn't live up to his wants. BTW Joe, the WB, ISO, etc., buttons are at our fingertips on the D7000 too. I don't know about the Qual you mentioned. I don't know what it is. Claudia, good luck with whatever you end up getting. I'm sure you'll love either one. I'm not posting any more in this thread. I've had enough. Hope you're not more confused from the back and forth stuff about the differences. [/QUOTE]
