[QUOTE="superustipak, post: 232585, member: 18456"] You must understand that camera brands like Nikon and Canon will always make newer and newer cameras, up the megapixel amount, add a few bells and whistles, call it something else, and jack up the price. The D7000 is basically the same thing as the D7100, with a few (to me) minor changes. I have not seen enough changes to warrant upgrading to the D7100. To answer your question... Is it relevant? Heck Yes! Anyone that tells you it isn't is simply lying to you. You can get professional results with a D7000. It can do everything. I would say get a refurbished D7000 and spend the money you saved on a nice prime lens or a flash unit rather than getting the D7100 for example. The price difference currently is ~ the cost of a SB-700. I would always rather have a D7k and the SB700 than the 7100 alone. Lenses and lighting will make or break your pictures. If you can't get excellent results from the D7000, it's your fault - not the cameras. [/QUOTE]
