[QUOTE="Vlad, post: 33360, member: 7939"] Wow, so many replies in such short time! Thanks!!! Just had an opportunity to use my new camera for the first time during my lunch. Will analyze pictures on PC, when I’ll get home. Firs impression is really awesome! Here are my thoughts (at least while I was considering shopping for a new camera): [LIST=1] [*]Keep cost down (reasonable), no $1k+ lenses in the nearest future. [*]At this point I do not know what I’ll be taking pictures of, as with P&S camera(s) I have been using for the past 6 years, I mostly took pictures my family and kids, some travel/vacation stuff – nothing “hobby” related. But with such capable camera like D7000, I might get involved in something else. [*]I’ve chosen 35mm as my first lens, considering that I’ll be taking pictures of my family (indoors/outdoors) and some street photography during my lunch walk. At least this will be a beginning…. [*]#3 was the reason for choosing SB-400 over SB-700 – I do not foresee I need a power flash in the next several months and bounced low-powered flash with 800 ISO and F/1.8 should be OK for now. [*]I also got an offer today from friend of mine to get his 18-200mm DX ED VR (original 2006) for $300. I might go for that. [*]The D7000 is so advance camera, it will take me some time to learn the camera setting and technics. Before I master camera itself I do not want to use RAW and PP. I think if I’ll keep 1 out of 100 shots after basic cropping – I’ll be happy camper for now. [*]I have 4GB Extreme III – and until Thanksgiving it will be my only card. [/LIST] Thanks for an advice on filters. I’ll look for B+W protective filter. Cheers, Vlad [/QUOTE]
