I have a D70S. Love it. I 'upgraded' to D5100 and have not been 100% happy with it.
1. battery life is very very short with video.
2. no auto focus motor in the body of the camera, limits my use of my favorite 18 - 200mm lens to manual focus only.
3. only one wheel to control F-stop and Aperture. Can never find that +/- button along with the wheel. Carpel tunnel!!!
So, I'm looking at D7000. BUT, I went to use it in the store and I prefer the viewfinder display in my old D70S The AF-S display stays a little longer, I can force it to only show the center box and then compose. How can I do that on the D7000? So far, I haven't found the setting to overide the 11 or 39 points. I just want one center.
Hard to teach an old dog new tricks? Or, do I need to change my ways?
Any suggestions?
