The times they are a-changin’.
This post seems to be older than 12 years—a long time on the internet. It might be outdated.
I bought a Nikon D7000 last week. I had called Glazer’s and they put me on The List. A few days later they called me back saying that had a body with my name on it. I picked it up. And it has been awesome.
I thought it would be fitting that the first picture I take with my new camera be a picture of my old camera:
50.0 mm || 1/30 || f/3.2 || ISO200 || NIKON D7000
Seattle, Washington, United States
Final stats (as best I can figure out):
- 38,641 pictures
- 234 GB of photos
- 5 years, 5 months, 2 days
- 3 continents (North America, Europe, Asia)
- 17 countries
First D70 picture: June 14, 2005
Last D70 picture1: November 6, 2010

Back to the D7000; I am really enjoying it so far! I’ve been playing around with all the new features and figuring out how I can get the most out of it. The big things I’m having to deal with right now are the increased file sizes (RAW files are about 20MB in size, versus 6MB with the D70) and taking video.
I’m looking for a good movie editor that is either free or inexpensive and can do color temperature and tint adjustment (along with all the regular stuff). I currently use Windows Live Movie Maker, and while that works for slicing and dicing, that’s about all it can do. I’m currently looking into Lightworks, which is a free and open source video editing suite that has won2 both Academy and Emmy awards.
