[QUOTE="Gladiator, post: 7173, member: 761"] Great after a long wait the D7000 is finally here, but as many others i thought it would be an updated D700 but it isn't. So now i hesitate in buying it and going after the D700 after all that waiting anyways. Correct me if i'm wrong but yes the 7K has more effective pixels but as we know pixels doesn't always mean better. Compared to the D700 it has a smaller sensor size 23.1 x 15.4mm over 36 x 24 for the D700 now that affects the quality right there. And the uncompressed format is «NEF», D700 has «RAW and TIFF». I always thought that RAW was considered the clean slate for any pros wanting large format and those using software like Photoshop? What the heck is NEF, never heard of it. Doing a lot of outdoor photography in winter will the D7K handle the cold-resistant Nikon EN-EL4a battery. I do love the D7K for the HD video option and it has a better viewfinder range and of course a better price :-) Any opinions? Maybe i'm just clueless... [/QUOTE]
