[QUOTE="alfaholic, post: 348935, member: 13066"] Some time a go I had the same dilemma, and decided to upgrade at the end. D3100 was my first SLR so I never really went through all hard times while ISO400 was too high, so I took for granted everything I read about it and how good it is, but at the same time I never really understood all that hype about IQ because my photos were all bad, maybe mediocre at the best. After some time of learning how to use it properly I upgraded to D7000, and the first thing I noticed is how better it is at high ISO, and even ISO100, not to mention everything else about build quality and materials, but I was at the beginning again. Now after some time I learned so much and I can say that D3100 is great camera, for me it has much better button placement than D7000, but I think if you can afford it you need to upgrade. As someone here told me, it will not make you a better photographer, it will do maybe the opposite at the beginning, but it will give you different view on things, and you will learn more and do your best to get better. Then again, if I can go back and choose to keep D3100 and buy two good lenses instead of upgrading to D7000, I will think hard... [/QUOTE]
