[QUOTE="Tobrew, post: 143806, member: 9362"] I felt the same way when I went from the D5100 to the D7000. I was so mad because I couldn't get sharp pictures, I felt the low light sensitivity wasn't as good, the pictures didn't look as good, etc. However, I started spending more time with my camera and I realized it was mostly learning curve. The D7000 is heavier than my old camera and I wasn't holding it steady enough which was causing issues. I was also running my ISO to low, because I thought the D7000 was a wonder camera, and it was causing some issues with sharpness. I also increased the sharpness to +6 in picture control which helped for me. I also found out that the camera had a slight backfocus problem which I fixed with a fine tune of about +3. One month later and I love this camera. It's a more professional body so you really have to tweak it to get the most. I watched a lot of Youtube videos to figure out some of the tricks. I also read lots of posts here to learn even more tricks. It's a great camera, don't give up. Rick [/QUOTE]
