Wait another month and see what's out. Minolta and Sony came out with
cameras in that same price range. They really sound impressive. Nikon's been
quiet lately, I can't wait to see what they replace the 5700 and D100 with.
The 5700 has been out for over a year. The way digital cameras are improving
I think that may be a little old. The 5700 does have some flaws and I'm
hoping Nikon will address them.
