[QUOTE="KennethHamlett, post: 1847, member: 22"] OK, the real issue is which camera should he buy for his brother that plans on studying photography. If your brother plans on attending an actual school for photography most schools have equipment they loan students for assignments. This is normally top of the line still and video equipment. Plus, student photographers first learn in manual mode so all the other features of either are a moot point. So, buying the D700 that goes for twice the price of a D5000 seems a little overboard considering the above. Plus remember, when shooting with full-frame cameras such as the D700, you really need the best quality lenses in order to take advantage of the edge-to-edge sharpness gained from the full frame format. My bet would be on the D5000 or even the D3000. [/QUOTE]
