Zoom with your feet doesn't work with wildlife in general, even backyard birds. Sometimes the 150 mm (300 35 equivalent) isn't enough long enough even in my backyard.
I'm a big fan of "zoom with your feet," but that really doesn't work when your subject is across that sheer drop, or there's a protective fence between you (think zoo). Just food for thought
Also, even with my 105mm macro lens, I still zoom with my feet.![]()
sorry to bring back this thread, but why did OP get a d60?

He got the D7000.
Actually, I ended up getting a free Nikon D60 from the camera shop I went to for work experience.
Does anyone have a 60D who uses it for Video and Still. I am looking for a camera which will do both equally well.
I love shooting in low lights, sport shooting and landscapes.
I'm looking for a new DSLR camera and I stumbled upon the Canon 60D and Nikon D7000. I love both of them! I have looked at many comparisons and tried them out at the shops but I can't decide (though I slightly like the Nikon more). Which one do you guys recommend? I love shooting in low lights, sport shooting and landscapes. I also wanted to know is there much of a difference in quality between the two LCDs (I forgot to check that when I was testing the cameras). I know the canon has 1 million screen dots and the nikon has 921,000 but is there really a difference?
I am getting ridiculous, I have been deciding between these two cameras for MONTHS now. I am pulling my hair out on picking one. I bought one and returned for the other and then returned it beacuse I always felt like I wanted the other one more. The 60d and d7000 are so even to me its crazy, help me out guys![]()
We have a winner. I have several friends who are into photography and we all bought our bodies around the same time. It's great being able to share flashes/lenses/etc. If I had to choose though, I'd go D7000; it has better low-light performance than the Canon....buy the camera brand that their friends own.
Then you're not adjusting the white balance correctly. Do you shoot RAW or jpg? If you're shooting RAW, the RAW converter is responsible for choosing the correct white balance, and the camera's preset mainly influence the small preview jpg that comes with the RAW image and perhaps the preset of the RAW converter. Getting the »right« look (i. e. the look you want) can be tricky if the image lacks a neutral grey target or you would like to add some warmth/cold, for instance. But that has nothing to do with the D7000 as it applies to all digital cameras.Yea i liked when i used the d7000, but something wasn't right, the indoor shots were really yellow even after the white balance was adjusted. Thats the only thing holding me back.
