I'm still using a d40x its time for an upgrade. I was looking at the d7000 but after comparing iso dynamic range with the d5100 i don't think i can justify the price difference. I may wait for the d300s replacement. What annoys me most about my camera is the lake of control buttons. You have to go into the menu to change everything. And looking at both the d5100 and the d7000 they both have the same problem. Come on nikon can't they add 2 auxiliary buttons on the back which we can set to adjust what we want them to adjust. Its not asking much. I just want to be able to set my iso or metering without trawling through the menu. I know you can set the flash comp button to adjust another control. i have already done so to iso.
