[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 209145, member: 13090"] [b]Re: Help!!!! D5300 or D7000???[/b] If you're in D5300/D7000 territory I'd say neither and suggest the D7100 instead but, of the two camera's you've listed I'd suggest the D7000 over the D5300 and here's why... With the D5300 you get built in WiFi and GPS but that's not something I would use a lot, personally, so that's not a big selling point for me on the '5300. I like the flip out screen and miss that from my '5100 days but I'm over it, so again, not a huge selling point on the '5300 for me. Waiting to see what the EXPEED 4 does but I'm not expecting miracles. Nice to have but not a huge consideration. 24MP is nice but not really a "must have". The D7000, on the other hand, has features I personally care about like weather-sealing, an auto-focus motor, dual card-slots, a better viewfinder, better viewfinder coverage and longer battery life.
