Let me know how your experience went. I had a defective D7000. Nikon admitted it was a defective camera and "repaired it" It came back with the mirror outside the camera. I sent it back. Nikon "repaired it," but it still rendered a blurry image. I sent it back again, and the images were nice and sharp but the metering was totally off when it was fine before.

I gave up at that point and just wrote off the camera as a loss. My company has been nice and is letting me borrow the Canon 5D for my trips as long as I'm careful and I absolutely love it. But I can't afford it! In the meantime I've reverted back to the old reliable D40. I don't think I ever took a good photo with my D7000, and I'm not sure I know of many people that were overly happy with it. Most people I know dumped it after a few months and got other cameras.
