SB: "Decisive Moment" of course, gotta look into one of those dictation programs. The "Time Lapse" feature is a lot more valuable to me than the burst rate could ever be. I've used motorized Nikons for over 15 years - I've never yet taken a motorized sequence. If you missed it on the first shot you're not going to get it with the second (or third, etc...).

How can anyone at this point in time be unaware that the finder IS
TTL? It is not optical, it is electronic. For my purposes it is
better due to the features it offers. As for the slow burst rate,
it is completely unimportant to me. If you are taking still photos
there is only one "Decisive monent", everything else belongs on
video IMHO.

I think that two things that would bug me most about the D7 would
be no TTL finder and the incredibly slow burst rate of over a
SECOND! You're going to miss pictures with this thing, guaranteed.
