I think compared to the d700 and even d300s it's a tad overpriced, I wouldn't be surprised to see it come down in price a fair bit after the initial rush to gush

....or it's being deliberately ratcheted high for a high price super dx d400 :-)
I agree re: current Aussie (and seemingly elsewhere eg. HK) intro D7000 pricing. At around the $1600-1700 AUD mark its not very attractive IMO.
At the current US MSRP I think its on the mark for a newly introduced camera and because of the features it offers, I expect the price to drop very slowly from this.

Has anyone on this forum got this camera? I'm looking longingly as buying this camera as my primary and first piece of equipment, but i want some personal opinions of the camera...
So any advice from anyone would be great, especially if you have this camera!
Yes. Under the site sponsors thread there's some discussion about the camera here (http://www.ausphotography.net.au/for...-at-DigitalRev). I've only had mine for 2 days but I love it ! I have upgraded from my 2 year old D80 so it's quite a leap in features for me. My main genre is macro and I got this because of it's decent ISO range. Controls are very similar to the D80 so I've had no problems getting stuck in and shooting with it. If you do a search on Flickr there's a couple of good D7000 groups discussing it and posting photos taken with it. Is there anything specific you wanted to know ?

Mine arrived today. Only taken a few very ordinary snaps with it so far to make sure its working. I think I 'm going to like it. Very similar in controls to my D90. Slightly different shape to the handgrip so it doesnt feel comfortable as the D90 on first handling. The shutter release feels softer and feels very nice.
