720p is hardly crappy. The only reason the camera companies are putting video on their DSLRs is that newspapers/magazines/websites/etc are specifically asking their photographers to also be able to shoot video for the web. That's the way the industry is going and of course Nikon will follow industry trends. 720p is perfectly suited for the web.
Simply increasing MP isn't a clear cut win-win, or Nikon would have done it.
Isn't this basically the 60D? What would the 60D be compared to this if it came out??
This sounds sweet:
"Capture images exactly as you see them The Canon EOS 7D features an Intelligent Viewfinder that offers photographers 100 per cent frame coverage. With 1.0x magnification* - a first for EOS - photographers see a large bright image that helps to fully immerse them within the shot. A transmissive LCD incorporated in the viewfinder allows photographers to choose between various overlay features - such as AF points, the spot metering circle and composition grid – providing a range of tools that help when framing a shot. The EOS 7D is also the first EOS to introduce a Dual-Axis Electronic Level – in the viewfinder and on the LCD - that indicates both pitch and roll angles. This feature is particularly useful when shooting landscapes to ensure a level horizon, or when used in conjunction with a Tilt and Shift lens to level the camera."
SongBird looks pretty nice, but iTunes ROCKS on a Mac.
I guess I can understand people not liking iTunes on Windows (though I've never actually heard anyone complain about it in real life), but iTunes works perfectly for 90% of people out there.
"I'm in the market for a new laptop, and I want a 13-incher. I need something with a great keyboard for typing, as this will mostly be used for note taking in class. I am absolutely smitten with the XPS 13, but I'm afraid that with its age Dell is going to give it an update soon. Any advice for someone in my shoes?"
