[QUOTE="nickt, post: 221183, member: 4923"] Probably best to hold them in person at a store. Dial in some manual settings, change focus modes, metering modes, etc. Don't just give them a quick hold, dive in a bit. The d7000 has a user interface that lends itself to quickly changing settings. Front and rear command wheels, a few more buttons, top LCD display so you can easily see what state the camera is in (especially handy out in the sun). It takes a little practice and you need to stay familiar with it. If you only pull the camera out a few times a year, the d5300 might be easier to navigate with the menus. It takes longer, but the menu lends itself to forgetting how to use the camera and finding what you need. Swing out screen on the d5300 might be handy for video. Two memory card slots on the d7000. Plenty of comparisons on the web with more detail. [/QUOTE]
