We had always wanted a Nikon D7000 16.2MP DX-Format CMOS Digital SLR with 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S DX VR ED Nikkor Lens
,but since we had never  owned a DSLR camera before, it was way too much money to spend on a camera. We had also heard of a lot of people buying DSLR cameras, and then not really using them to get their monies worth out of them. So, we decided to get a camera we could afford, and make sure we used it enough to make an upgrade worth it later. So, we randomly kept our eyes open for a Nikon D7000 16.2MP DX-Format CMOS Digital SLR with 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S DX VR ED Nikkor Lens
so if there was a good enough deal we could jump on it.
