Love the camera, especially the burst mode feature

Have done lots of research between the Canon 60D or the Canon 7D and also the Nikon D7000. The pic quality from the Nikon D7000 is slightly better than the 7D from various comparisons but decided the burst mode (8 fps) from the 7D is what I ultimately use the camera for (kids' sports). The Nikon D7000 has only 6 fps, comparable to the Canon 60D, but the 7D has 8 fps. I don't do any landscape photos in RAW format and rarely do low light so the higher ISO settings really didn't matter to me.
Settings are different from my old XTi so it's taken a little adjustments. More camera features so I guess there are more settings, etc. Settings not as intuitive at first but get easier as you're more familiar with them.
What's great about it: Burst mode and low light capability
What's not so great: Need really good lens to get the best out of the camera.
