\"More than 20% better image quality\"
\"Distinguishes more than 2.5x more colors\"
\"Has 2.1 f-stops more dynamic range\"
By the way, I\'ve read that the Nikon inherits the same sensor from the D7000, while the Canon inherits the same (or almost the same) sensor as the 7D. While I\'ve read that the D7000 has better low-light performance, the only measurement that really sparks my interest is the dynamic range.
Those numbers only have relevance if you understand Dxomark\'s testing methodology and they matter to you. I think Dxomark\'s DR testing methodology is solid, and would be tempted to believe them. Having shot with the D7000 and 7D, the D7000 is undoubtedly a much higher IQ camera.
hat said, do I need 2.5x more colors than the 7D? No. I didn\'t even notice them. I\'m sure someone will be able to appreciated the extra color depth much as I was able to appreciate the much cleaner low-iso (and high-iso) D7000 files.
