is D7000 really worth the upgrade?? just curious why you're set on this. i noticed the higher resolution, but didn't look into it anymore. what is your reasoning for the upgrade jon?

Well I cant speak for Jon, but my friend is looking to upgrade to a D90 right now. But he decided to wait for the 3000 because of higher MP, more FPS (does a lot of sports stuff) And for the HD video the camera can autofocus when you zoom in and out. Plus 2 SD card slots and 39 AF points.

so i decided to just do a bit of research on it... WOW. i must say i'm very impressed.

mp increased, iso performance got better, HD video got better (finally constant AF), twin SD slots, saved user definable settings, 39 AF points...

pretty awesome for folks not looking to go FF.

Here's a good review if you haven't seen it already: http://blog.chasejarvis.com/blog/2010/09/nikon-d7000/

It's a Ogio Atiba Mini. I have a Ogio backpack as well for school and it's great so when I saw this camera bag I had to get it. It blows my old Lowepro bag out of the water.

I had an Ogio backpack and it was dismal, terrible ergonomics. But my Ogio golf bag is awesome.

That Ogio Atiba Mini has no spot for a tripod. Aside from that, it looks like a great bag to me.
