The d7000 looks tasty, be interesting to see what the iso performance is like with it still being a cropped sensor and cramming 16 megapixels on there,

Canon seem to have managed to pull off this trick with the 7D and 550D - it's a slightly smaller sensor and has 18M pixels.

But do you need that many pixels anyway? Be honest

Mmmm I suppose not, do you really need 10? I only need 6 to print off in a3
Seriously though if you are selling to stock agencies, the higher resolution images will sell better than lower as it gives the buyer more scope as to what they can do with the image imo!
I could have done with 16 when I first started, loads of cropping pottential
