Blipper's Daily (?)

Took the Plunge

Well I finally decided which way to jump in the CaNikon choice for my system upgrade....can you guess which way I jumped from todays Blip :-)

After weeks of driving the household around the bend reading camera mag and website reviews it came down to a paper choice between the Nikon D7000 and the Canon 60D. So off to town to find somewhere I could get my hands on both of them side-by-side to see how they felt in the hand. Within a few seconds of handling I was reasonably certain....the Nikon. For some reason my fingers just fell naturally onto the controls whereas the Canon was another matter entirely.....then when I looked through the viewfinders and heard the shutter release I was hooked....the Nikon (sorry but the 60D sounded so plasticky).

Hope I've not upset any Canon fans here (sorry Delphwynd!).

Off to read the 326 page manual now before tomorrow morning when I can take this baby out in the daylight!

PS - Watch out for some Sony gear going up for sale on eBay.....I'll be sad to see it go.
