The D7000 does have an odd "hot pixel" effect during video (not all D7000 examples). Nikon have responded immediately announcing a firmware fix? No other tech issues reported.
I was looking at a K5 for Xmas and the D7000 as a second Nikon body. I'm now on hold on the K5 until I see how pentax sort this.

Hit +40'C today just south of Perth. Off up to the Pilbara tomorrow as it's really warm up there.
The flies, the flies.
Looking forward to being back in the North East UK for Xmas/New Year.

Maybe not. Very easy for such ministries to do a reversal due to public/global outcry and put it down to a newspaper error.If you go back to the article in the Kuwaiti Times, they have added a retraction and an apology. Heads are probably gonna roll in their editorial department!
They took their time denying it?

In the audiophile community there is the well established theory of 'burning in' variuos compomants, the speakers and amps for example.
There is the famous 'musicality' debate about Linn Sondek turntables too of course
So I wouldn't be surprised if variuos dslr parts including the electronics bed in and get better
Looking forward to it

I believe that was more mechanics of the deck bedding in. As for the electronics, back then, capacitor technology was average and it was often the case that the larger PSU capacitors required time to settle and reach activity saturation. Similar to cycling NiCads today. Their chemistry had large tolerences. Bass improvement was a notable case as the capacity improved in the large PSU capacitors.In the audiophile community there is the well established theory of 'burning in' variuos compomants, the speakers and amps for example.

Today, it's a no brainer, technology is way ahead with cap chemistry etc.
Electronics today do not bed in. If that were the case, the performance spread would be unacceptable.

These were taken this morning at Shoalwater.
Very very bright light and high UV. Near to mid day. Why not shoot?
With the exception of "snakes", all at f/2.8, ISO 100, Polarised.
Sentinel gull
at rest
snakes in the grass (f/3.2)
and my favourite of the bunch:
grass bokeh
Not the best subject matter.
C&C welcome.

Things much worse are going on. I have been detained for having a camera in the wrong area. My wife and I have been tear gassed in public shops when the "security" forces were challenging youths in Manama.I agree. It's wholly retarded. And if it ever happens here we should protest and resist such nonsense.
The press is controlled so you don't realise what you may be walking into when you step off a plane. A lot of institutions look the other way.
You talk about Palestine as it's general knowledge.
This is not. link
The world is not a nice place whilst such things occur.
Not having freedom to use a camera in public is the least of some peoples problems.
