[QUOTE="snaphappy, post: 242327, member: 12198"] I am only a couple days short of 1yr with my first DSLR. I was thinking the 5xxx series but went for the more intimidating 7000 and I most definitely made the right choice for me. I had no idea what iso, aperture or anything meant and reading posts here was a bit like reading a foreign language. It was a foreign language I wanted to learned though so read, asked stupid questions, took a course at the college and I have enjoyed every single thrilling and frustrating moment of learning. I think if I'd bought a menu based camera I would not have pushed myself to learn and would have stayed in the modes because playing with menus are a pain in the butt. I love my 7000 and if you are truly interested in more than auto shooting then 7xxx is the way to go. The top screen is great for night shoots on a tripod and being able to change everything easily while continuing to look out your viewfinder is the best. Oh and the 2 card slots excellent :) [/QUOTE]
