[QUOTE="RunningWithScissors, post: 70185, member: 10316"] There will [I]always [/I]be a newer, better camera on the market, but there will not always be a newer, better lens. That being said, the D7000 and D5100 are in a different class. The 7k has two programmable user modes, focus fine tuning for each of your lenses, better focusing systems, and more buttons...buttons that are programmable, buttons you will quickly learn to use to your advantage instead of menu-diving. I thought I'd miss the swivel screen, but I really don't. They'll both take excellent photos, but one of them will do it faster, not just framerates, but to be able to QUICKLY change settings. If you're only doing landscapes...go for the 5100 and some nice sharp FX glass, as you'll probably yearn for a full-frame one day. If you're doing sports, go for the 7000, I find it works great for sports. [/QUOTE]
