I'm dissapointed in Nikon. They seem to be more interested in satisfying the needs of soccer moms than the photographers that have been with them for years. Entry level buyers are screwed either way. If they go Nikon, they get a plastic toy with only a DX sensor, a screen and a lens mount and no other important features. If they go Canon, they must put up with the brick-like erganomics of canon's rebel series.
Nikon should seriously get real. I had a budget, and the only camera that fit my needs was an oudated one (D70). If they had half the brains I think they have they'd make a $500 body to suit photographers, not MWACs and soccer moms.
i wouldn't go that far. i am dissapointed they felt the need to satisfy the "all-in-one" market with a DSLR/Video. they should have been inovative and created a new product that combined decent AUTO photo taking with decent video quality. however, Nikon still caters to the true photographer. it's not like Nikon has skimped on photographic technology and quality to add the video and other gadgetty features.
