When considering a possible upgrade, it is often a balance of want and need, and there is also an element of horses for courses - e.g. no-one has to buy new, or to spend much, to be able to drive swiftly, safely, and in comfort along British roads.
Anything from today will be old technology tomorrow, and there will always be something better coming around the corner. So I was responding, while trying to keep feet firmly grounded, to issues you hinted at earlier - principally ISO performance and cost of upgrading.
If funds are available, a VR lens on a D7000 body would be worthy of serious consideration. The combination would give a great leap forward in image quality when needing to use high ISO, plus the ability capture more light anyway, by using slower shutter speeds hand-held, as the stabilisation minimises motion blur.
Cheers.
Philip
