Good choice. I was eyeing the D90 but more or less fixed on getting the D7000.

What is the amount for the +2 years warranty by itself?

Bro sunn,

It is very tough choice to choose between the D300s and D7000. To make matter worst one dealer offered me RM4600.00 for the D300s with the same kit (Nikkor 18-105mm VR Lens). The guy at Camera Planet offered it @RM4500.00 with one year Nikon warranty and +RM100 for a 2 years Camera Planet warranty.

If you are comparing the D90 with the D7000 then the decision would be much easier except for price. I chose the D7000 for two things over the D300s, the Expeed 2 operating system and Full 1080HD movies. Hope my decision is right. May I know what factor/s make you select the D7000?

Bro SB, I need to finish reading the 15mm thick manual 1st to decide if I qualified for the job...
