Actually, the D7000 is a tiny fraction larger than the D90. However, it's just 2mm, so in practice they can certainly be considered same size.



It's a matter of priorites what to choose, I guess. I personally prefer lens IS over in-body IS, but I'm more of a tele guy and really appreciate a stable viewfinder image.



I certainly would choose the D7000 over a 60D because of it's more pro-like feature set, especially AF. If I was shooting Canon today, the 7D would still be the camera I'd probably own.

The D7000 looks to be a very nice camera. Personally I would choose a 60D over a D7000, because of its ease of use (in my view better thought out user interface, both hardware and software, in most areas), the swivel LCD and Canon lens line up.

I prefer the 60D over the 7D, because of the reduced size. Personally I do not care much about more AF points, Canon and Nikon both are good in AF speed and tracking.

The point I do like about the D7000 over the 60D is the 100% view finder.



I think that all DSLRs introduced these days are rather impressive (D7000, 60D, K5 to be introduced yet, E5).
