Haha...I've been through a similar scenario, works other way round though. A promoter from Panasonic was selling their almighty GH-1 and telling me stories bout it's sensor's APS-C sized. HAHA. rclxms.gif I've even paid him compliment after a very very elaborated technical specs explanation after that. The look on his face is very satisfied, to have thought that he'd convinced someone to buy his bullshit.

My friend own a D7000, but other than the impressive high ISO noise handling, it's just like a normal Nikon.

kysham: hahaha, after using D7k, the only thing i like is the mirror sound... good for my birding only... i still prefer my 'now cacat' A300... ~.~

RoT: i tot many website reviewed and said, A580 and D7k is the same? but with A580 having more feature and the multiframe iso give more clearner iso(but not practical) then D7k?

the worst thing i ever try to find in nikon system is to reset the file numbering, it is not same page with format card, but hidden somewhere else with the camera fn settings... F rite? it took me and 7 other aka PRO nikon user  2 hours to find it... at last, it was a new nikon user who found it for me... muahahahaha.... then sold the D7k... *evil grins*
I really had no idea that A580 is on par with D7k, good to know that rclxms.gif Well yeah A580 do have more features than D7k, but by the multiframe ISO u mean the "handheld twilight" mode? I've tried that out but it just couldn't match D7k's high iso noise...Somehow D7k seems to have lesser noise even at ISO 6400..But that is what I felt la, from what I see.

Lol yeah I gotta agree that Nikon's user interface sux ass. shakehead.gif While having hands-on with my friend D7k I seriously have no idea how to access some more advanced function, and d menu just look awfully crowded..Definitely not a newbie friendly DSLR.

Guys, I have few questions.

Wanna know, To all Tamron 1750 owners, When you say 'backfocus problems' what does it mean? How many times in 100 photographs it happens? Lets say 50mmf1.8 is 50%, how loud is the AF? Is it true that the pics has a yellowish tint because of this lens?

Back focusing is d tendency for ur AF to focus on the back of the intended subject...But I've been using this lens for quite a while and I don't find this a problem. Maybe I prefer to choose my local AF points so I won't go wrong with my focusing...But this lens do find it hard to focus on some low contrast objects or scenes. U'll find this a trouble.

Bout the noise it generates during focusing..I think it's alright. Not really audible outdoor.

Actually...Instead of spot or local AF point focusing method, I found manual focus is d best way to get a sharp subject when it comes to panning. The trick is to pre-focus on the point where u think ur subject would be passing by.

that is for subject moving horizontally,  how about then they started to give distance?

Added on February 24, 2011, 10:35 pmall up to the situation one la...

I guess panning shots are quite 2-D..means most of d time subjects r swaying sideways..that's where the panning action involve huh, and that's how d background's blurred with d sense of speed. For subjects moving onto or away from the camera d sense of speed is added with Zoom Burst instead.
