Looking at a D7000, it can take pictures in RAW as a 14 bit file. Technical . . . over my head, I understand 14 bits is a more detailed and larger file, so I have been told . . . ? But how will it affect my computer and Elements v.7, I also have v.8.

I really dont want to much aggravation . . . as one gets older, one likes the old ways . . . :) However, I do have 'my moments' when I try to catch up:lol: hence looking at the D7000, it should keep me happy scratching my head for the rest of my togging days . . . :shrug: :naughty:

It shouldn't make any difference to your computer, it will probably slow down the frames per second on the camera (not sure with that model) and photoshop will see the image just the same, it's just the raw file holding more detail.

Thanks Wayne . . . Mmm, slower speed? I seem to remember some one saying, OK for landscapes and the like, but, for fast moving pics and shutter bursts, sport etc., perhaps not such a good idea . . . not into togging fast sport, or anything to energetic these days:shrug: However the option may be a good thing?

Looks like I have a steep learning curve ahead of me . . . if . . . I go for the D7000 . . . beginning to wonder if the D90 might be a better bet? Thing is, I (semi) retire soon, I dont want (wont be able to afford) to have another body change?

You don't HAVE to use 14 bits all the time. And even if you do I don't know how much even the latest PS Elements can do with 14 bits.
