Congrats!!

Congrats you'll love it. Just remeber there is a bit of a learning curve.

 

[Supermario343]

Thanks everyone, Im looking forward to it...What kind of a learning curve are you mentioning Iscariot?

 

[David D. Busch]

You'll love it. I end up leaving my D3s at home and taking my D7000 most times when my 10-24mm and 28-200mm lenses are enough.

In most of the threads I have read and my own experence most users need to improve their technique a bit to get sharp shots. You may not, it just seems to be a common theme. The 16mp sensor seems to be sensitive to camera movement.

Also bump up the incamera settings for sharpness and what not other wise your review shots on the LCD might seem a little flat. The default values are quite conservative. This will also help your output files if shooting Jpeg.

Thanks for the help bud, yeah i see the difference you meant with the cameras. D90 vs. D7000 that is...wont take me long to get it down :smile:

I have had to adopt the old adage that your shutter speed should be 1.5x your focal length and have set a minimum SS with auto ISO. Once I did that I can be lazy again.

will you please post a picture of your D7000 with the sigma 50 1.4 attached?

When I get a chance I will...any particular reason why you want to see that combo? :tongue:

i just sold my nikon 50 1.8 and i hated the feel of it on my D7000. the sigma has a 77mm filter size, so it has to be bigger.

It is a LOT bigger actually...I also use to own the 50mm 1.8. Its nothing size wise as the sigma 50mm is. Nice piece of glass

 

[Supermario343]

This might help with how big it looks

Thanks but do you have any attached to the camera?

 

[travelsafari]

For my dx camera I've been on the edge about upgrading to the d7000 from my d90. This may be enough to push me over.

 

[JustEd]

:Shocked:Mario, you've made a huge mistake. Just send me the D7000 and I will send you my old D90 to save you from being disappointing....:biggrin:

Seriously, congrats and many happy "clicks"
