The positives of the D7000 vs. D90 after two months of use:1. I shoot mainly indoor sports primarily high school jazz and high-kick dance routines in low and lousy light typically. This camera is considerably better than the D90 in this area. Very sharp and bright images with little or no noise up to ISO 6400. I generally use a Nikon f/2.8 70-200mm VR lens which yields excellent results.2. 100% image as shown in viewfinder.3. New extra dial that lets you store two completely different sets of camera settings. This makes switching between two modes especially fast when needed.The negatives (only applies if you expect to shoot many shots quickly and in raw)1. One of the things even the expert reviewers are missing is that this camera at 16MP creates around a 20MB raw file. This isn't a problem for general use but when shooting rapid fire or shooting every second or so the buffer fills up before writing out to the card. You can take up to 10 shots at any speed you wish but once it is full you have to wait several seconds to open space to continue or take fewer shots which is what I do to not miss that all important moment. I never had this issue with the D90 - I could shoot as rapid as I wanted. Granted the image is much better/larger and in 14 or 12 bit raw but be aware of this limitation going in. When shooting JPEG, the buffer size increases considerably so if you normally shoot JPEG it might not be a problem.2. The dual card slot sounds great. There are several menu options to configure how you want the slots to behave; mirror so that as you take each photo the camera writes out to the other card at the same time. Sounds great for backup? It is great if you shoot slow or general stuff. However, shooting quick, fast shots, it slows the write process down even further to the point where it is not very useable. So I always opt for having the second card to act as overflow so when the first card fills up it automatically switches to the second card. This doesn't seem to slow it down. There are also several different configurations for the dual card slots. I would suggest downloading the user manual from Nikon prior to purchase to see if it will meet your needs.3. As you push the shutter release it is harder to determine when the shutter will close and slightly delayed on occasion compared to the D90 which was crisp and felt just right. Its not too bad once you get accustomed to it being more sensitive and know how to deal with it but at first you will notice a sharp contrast.4. I added a battery grip which makes the camera balance and grip much better especially with the larger lens for going into portrait position. Nice features on it and well positioned. However, its a trade off in that you have to take the grip off every time you want to charge the battery that remains in the camera. Only one battery is in this battery grip vs. the design made for the D90 which was two.In general I highly recommend this camera despite the comments above. The limitations above are something to be aware of for my shooting conditions. If these don't match how you plan to use the camera you will be delighted by it's performance over the D90. You will still be delighted in any case.I also have used the D700 and D3 and I would say this camera produces images comparable to the D700 in in some cases superior. It's not D3 or D3X class but the images are hard to distinguish until you get into really low light situations.No difference:The magnesium body vs plastic body. I didn't really notice the difference between the two cameras. They feel and look about the same and weigh very close.

I upgraded my body to this recently from my old Nikon D80. Paired with a Nikon 24-70mm 2.8f lens and a Sigma 70-200mm 2.8f lens, this thing is a BEAST compared to my D80.The biggest differences I see are:1) The focus speed and accuracy - with the 39 AF points it captures most of my shots with my kids running around2) Amazing usability at high ISO ranges - I mean I've had this cranked up to 2500 ISO and zero graininess on indoor pictures at my kids b-day parties with no blur at shutter speeds as low as 1/80.3) 6 shots per second - doesn't sound like much but taking shots of the kids running around, you get some great expressions you would otherwise miss4) Ability to shoot video. Obviously not the main reason I got this, but it's a nice feature to use once in a while5) dual memory card slots. Can you see never run out of room with 2 32 GB SD cards loaded? :-)If you have a D80 and you can still find one available for under $900 now that the D7100 has come out. Don't think, just buy.

I am pretty sure there are many people who will agree AND disagree when I say"A camera is and can be as good as its user."For the Nikon D7000, it is a very good piece of engineering for a relatively affordable price.The D7000 has everything a beginner or enthusiast can ask for.What I like about the camera:- Amazing viewfinder, a great set of levers, dials and buttons for amazingly quick control, without even looking at the larger LCD.- User defined modes U1 and U2, to quickly switch over to saved modes and settings for specific situations, are more flexible than in other cameras.- A large set of options in the menu to customize the camera as per user's requirements.- An excellent metering system and a very good AF system with 39 focus points and 3D tracking for shooting action (kids, pets..) and sports.- Probably the only camera to actually be able to exploit UHS-I SD card write speeds, and this one comes with DUAL SD card slots, I can even use my microSD card with the help of an adapter.- DX format gives more lens options, down side: cropped image of what you see on a Full Frame.- Excellent battery life.- Excellent in-camera RAW editing. Also comes with a few effect like the miniature, fish-eye, etc.What I would like to have/change:- A better frame rate for the price. Shoots at 6fps at the moment.- A better, bigger buffer size for shooting RAW and JPG at Large size. Shoots up to 10 RAW images before buffer is full.- A couple of more customizable (Fn) buttons, although this might be too much to ask for.- A few more manual mode options' usability during Live View.- A better user's manual.Some might complain the AF is slower than the pro-level 51 Point AF system developed by Nikon, but the speed also depends, I think, on the lens in use.I have bought only FX lenses so far, since they are reverse compatible with DX bodies. So I can use the same lenses, if I switch over to FX in the future. I'd recommend a 50mm or 35mm prime for amazing sharp low-light, low noise images.The Nikon D7000 can shoot the amazing Full HD videos to top it all off, I wish it did 60fps or more too.Overall image qaulity: Very goodBuild and Handling: Very goodValue for money: ExcellentFeatures: ExcellentLow light images: Very Good up to ISO 1200.Dynamic Range: Amazing at ISO 100.Having a great set of machinery will not necessarily produce world class photos, if as a photographer you don't take the time and pains for a good composition, and again while to edit the RAW images. I recommend you always shoot in RAW.Definitely a recommended buy, if you are truly passionate about your photography.

I have owned and shot with a D90 for about 2 years now. After reading some reviews on "other" sites I was a little hesitant.... but hopeful. After shooting with it for about 5 days now, all I can say is WOW. I have yet to try out all the features on the D7000, but using most of the same settings and scenarios that I had used on my D90, this camera is WAY beyond my expectations.Clean, Crisp shooting is a given using this camera (if you do your part). QUALITY pictures at higher ISO's is what I really was after, and it has delivered for me. I have an upcoming trip to Alaska to really put the test to it, I plan on updating my review after getting a more aquainted with everything it has to offer.I plan on using this camera to do some serious photography, from what I have seen so far, it can & will handle what I want.EDIT: After returning from Alaska, all I can say is I am REALLY impressed. From Crunching 6 Frame-per-second pictures of flying eagles, to snapping pictures of Surfacing whales in a fraction of a second from when I first saw them, it never failed me.I DO NOT take pictures with my camera set to "auto", newbies or others with not a lot of experience with a camera such as this, might struggle some. However, if you get a good guide and read it, this camera can open up a whole new world to your photography. I have read quite a few "focus error" posts on here, I had a couple too.... until I set it for how I was shooting, I have had ZERO problems since.If you do not know what you are doing with a digital SLR, this is not an easy camera to get great pictures with... good pictures sure. But if you are spending this much money, and willing to do a LITTLE homework.... why not take EXCEPTIONAL pictures??? This camera will do it.

I recently upgraded from a D3000 and it has been a world of difference between the two. The D3000 was a real noise master and any pictures take above ISO 800 in low-light even with a prime lens yielded bad results. Not to mention the absence of bracketing. There are a bucket load of features missing in the D3000 but this is about D7k right?The kit 18-105 is an all rounder but it has its limitation under extreme low light. I use this with my other two primes 35 1.8G and 50 1.8D and I'm greatly satisfied with the results.WB is always set on AUTO (except when I use strobes) and it succeeds most of the time detecting the right mode.AF is super fast and I found that using single point in low-light would be a good idea.Sharp images and great contrast.The extra dials are useful to quickly change Shutter speed/apertureTons of extra settings which I dearly missed in D3kAgreed one slightly discomforting thing is the added bulk and weight when compared to entry level models and mirror-less models, but for the quality of output I think these are rightly justified.

As a amateur photography enthusiast, the Nikon D7000 is my first DLSR camera. And i couldnt be less amazed by the power it gives into your hands - yet to subtle and can be used by newbies like me effortlessly.The menu options are simple to understand, and i found them quite intuitive and didn't have to read the manual to know what each does.The pictures come out really well, its 16 MP and amazing clarity - whether you shoot indoors or outdoors. The auto mode is a no brainer - i actually started off with the pre-set "scene" modes which are designed perfectly for different shooting conditions.There are lot of manual settings - a setting for practically everything you can think of. I am actually learning all of them as i use it more - but its a real treat for someone interested in photography. You soon find there is so much to learn, it surprises you everyday.You can take full HD video in amazing movie like clarity. Buy a 32 or 64 GB card if you plan to shoot more videos since video size can easily go up to 800 MB for a 5 min video on 1080 HD.Battery life is also improved from the previous models - i got around 800 shots + a few 5 min videos from a single battery charge.The only sore point i would say is - it is little heavy to carry around especially after you attach the lens. Need strong hands if you are outdoors and want to click pics as you travel.I highly recommend this equally to amateurs and professionals.

I like the D7000. I wish I could love it, but this review is for those interested in true hybrid shooting: switching on-the-fly between still image capture and digital filming. I've been trying to find the right camera to use in the field when I have to shoot both stills and short film clips. A "perfect" camera doesn't need add-ons to do that... the Nikon D7000 does need them. I'm not hating on the D7000 because Nikon's definitely going in the right direction (by adding things like a socket for an external mic - something that the D90 sorely lacked. It also adds manual adjustment for film recording (people like calling it "video" but iPhones take video ... I want to go beyond that YouTube mentality).The D7000 also sports that wonderful 5-6 fps still image capture. Not just a burst of 6 frames, but constant. In Jpeg mode, you can sit on the shutter and capture dozens of images. With the setting in Raw, you can only capture a handful of NEF files before the camera needs to come up for air to write; the image size is actually larger than the D3/D3S.Now for what I feel is the drawback on the hybrid build of these cameras: Each one that has a mirror for shooting images means that you cannot use the eyepiece to shoot clips. Which means that you have to use the rear LCD screen to frame and capture. Taking that camera from cradle shooting (where you cradle the camera in your hands holding it to your eye) will yield camera shake when you extend a two-pound camera away from your body to shoot. And forget about fine-focusing if you're farsighted.You also can't control sound like the camcorders like the ones with the XLR microphone jacks. Our boss plans to get an audio integrator, but they cost $399, and add bulk which goes against the desire to have an camera that doesn't attract attention.One can add a viewfinder for the LCD screen (like the Hoodman) which acts as a loupe, but if you're into shooting both stills and clips, your eye won't be able to access the prism viewfinder. In my own opinion, the need to add these accessories means that development of a great field-use hybrid still has a way to go. I think these cameras should eliminate the shutter mirror. It would allow you to keep the camera close to your face and quickly and seamlessly switch between clips and images. The hybrid camera is moving on a course where this should hopefully happen. I think Lumix now has some cameras that are mirror-free and use an LCD viewfinder. But their image quality is still lacking.Is it that photographers don't want to shoot using an LCD screen? Is there a problem with image jumping when a still is captured, where the image shows for a moment, or breaks away from the live action? I've noticed that with the Lumix cameras that I've shot with, and it makes it difficult to shoot something like football. Focusing isn't nearly as precise as using a prism viewfinder. Some people may be chomping at the bit thinking I'm hating you new-found gem. But I only want to focus on what others genuinely missed in their reviews. It's easy to talk about all that stuff that most write about. But I think this is an important aspect that needs to be explained, for those who want to use a similar camera as a standalone hybrid. We don't have the budget or desire to but external sound boxes, 8-inch monitors, and camera stabilizers. We just want to switch between video and stills without having to add extra gear or move the camera away from our eyes.

I am "sidegrading" to this camera from a D300s. Here are my thoughts after shooting both together for a couple of months.The worst thing about the D7000 are its more "beginner friendly" ergonomics. The mode wheel on the D7000 is too easy to turn accidentally. Everything besides A, S, M, U1 and U2 are a waste for me. This could have been the perfect camera if they only made the buttons exactly like a D300s. The live view switch is too easy to hit accidentally with your thumb, especially if you use the AF lock button a lot (like, if you use it to enable autofocus). Its also too easy to accidentally press the DOF Preview button next to the lens mount as your left hand wraps around the lens. I can't imagine why they moved that button from its spot on the higher end Nikons.The one true ergonomic advantage the D7000 has for me are its user modes. This is a HUGE advantage, as the more settings I have to change between shots, the more mistakes I make. I set one of the user modes to manual with auto ISO and mixing ambient shots in with flash shots becomes a total breeze. The smaller size and weight of the D7000 had seemed like it would be a big advantage but it just doesn't feel that great in my hands. I might try the grip to help this. The weight difference between the two is small enough that I don't notice it much and prefer the D300s feel.I had been worried that the buffer on the D7000 would run out too easily. I have never gotten into trouble with this and I shoot in 14 bit RAW. The stuff I shoot (typical Dad stuff, some portraits, some landscapes and long exposures), doesn't really require any burst shots, though.The image quality seems to be about a stop and a half better than a D300s after processing RAW files via Lightroom 3. I would pretty much never go above ISO 800 on the D300s. On the D7000, I will gladly go to 1600 and will use 3200 about often as 800 on the D300s. This is a big deal to me because it seams I can go without a flash about 50% more often.The autofocus and metering are a bit better on the D7000, but not enough for me to really care.Manual focus on the D7000 is easier, as it gives you arrows in the viewfinder telling you which way to turn the focus ring. D300s only gave you a dot for focus confirmation. Manual focus in Live View seems a bit easier on the D7000. I am not sure why, but it feels slicker. Maybe the screen is refreshing faster? The LCDs have identical resolution, so this could be in my head also.I love that the D7000 can use a cheap IR remote. The "remote mode" on the D7000 is still a bit of a mess, in that it disables your normal shutter button, but its worth not having to deal with fancy wireless shutter releases and their ridiculous screw-in cables.So in the end, I like the D7000 better. Image quality and user modes really cinched it for me.

I received the camera today and am already putting it back in the box to return to Amazon. I charged and inserted the battery but the device failed to power-on. More charging, still nothing. Gave it to my wife and brother to make sure I was not missing something important. Nothing. I will be shipping it all back in the morning and expect to receive a replacement. I will update this review if the replacement turns out to actually work.Update #1 - I had a very frustrating customer service experience with an individual who had an inadequate comprehension of English. I believe she was nice and had the best of intentions, but just couldn't understand my issue or the questions I was asking. I had to just end the call.Update #2 - After waiting 12 hours I was able to get in touch with someone based in the U.S. who was able to answer my questions and get a replacement camera shipped to me. This was a very positive experience. I wish all my encounters with customer service could be this good. UPS should be delivering the new camera on Monday.

Between their horrible customer service and their even shoddier product - I've concluded that my jump to Nikon was the biggest mistake I've ever made.I bought a D7000 slightly used (under 2k actuactions) off the FredMiranda forums after selling my Canon 40D and was extremely excited to get a new camera of the quality I had spent weeks researching. Low light performance was my #1 priorority and the d7k was the best in the price range.So finally, my camera arrives. Box looks brand new, body looks absolutely flawless and it was, in fact, under 2k actuactions. AWESOME!Within a few days, I noticed that it would give me random errors writing to either of the Sandisk EXTREME 16gb class 10 cards. The camera becomes unusable until you pull both cards and the battery. Not only that - but the image you were trying to shoot whenever you get the error - is gone. Doesn't exist. Great, as a concert photographer - you get 9 minutes to shoot images - and I'm spending a 3rd of that time now pulling my memory cards and powering down so my nearly brand new sub-par Nikon can continue to shoot.I lived through that until this weekend, when about every 10th image now gives me an error and requires the cards to be pulled/etc. I e-mailed Nikon right away with this problem when I started receiving it, and they told me to send it in and pay them to service it.Yes, you want me to pay you to fix a camera that has been defective since the day it was shipped from your factory? Not only that - you want me to be without a camera for 6 weeks while you diagnose/fix it. I've tried 3 different brands of class 10 SD cards and still get this error - along with lots of other people who made the mistake of buying this body.I plan on slamming this body on every site selling it that I can find. Amazon, B&H, whatever. Also, I will be slamming Nikon on every social media site I'm a part of AS WELL AS never recommending anything be bought from your company.Instead of buying a d7000 - I would recommend to everyone that is looking - buy a $5 paperweight and a 7D. I made the mistake of just buying a $1200 paperweight.

I own a Fuji x100, d300 and a d700, having bought the d7000 as a light backup and toy camera. I admit to having very high hopes for the low light capabilities of this camera and in most ways it lived up to the hype, taking very usable images at iso 3200 in near darkness.I used it for about 3 months off and on for some bar photography and 2 weddings as well as just fooling around with it. In low light it focused very quickly and I was very happy with everything except especially the improved flash metering (metering in general actually, you often have to baby sit the d700 meter in tricky light if you use it). Unfortunately when I looked at the images on my computer it seemed like most of them were WAY too soft for a fast prime. I calibrated all of my lenses on it and tried my damnest to fix the issue and upgraded to the most recent issue but it still SEVERELY backfocused in about every third shot or so, just enough to keep the subject from being sharp enough. I noticed it was worse with my G series pro lenses, my old 85 1.4d seemed to nail every time though.I could have sent it into get fixed but my biggest problem with the camera was the flexability of the raw files and dynamic range at high iso's. At 3200 if it didn't nail the exposure the photo was "difficult" to save and the resulting image would always lose way too much detail and smooth tonal gradation. I already knew i was spoiled by the d700 but the specs said it should have been better than it was.It is a very good camera, but I agree that the focusing issues with this camera and the i guess, "quality of the noise pattern in the raw files at high isos" prevent it from being an acceptable backup to my D700, the D300 is still just more convenient and excellent at low iso.Things I liked:-Handling-Metering-weight and size-felt very well built-video was cool but still not good enough-dual card slots THANK YOU NIKON.Things I didn't like:-no af-on button (which sort of drives me nuts due to personal habits)-Focusing-The noise pattern at high iso (1600-3200+ w/ no NR)resembles a pointilism impressionist painting instead of the more natural film grain look from the x100 and D700 I pretty much only shoot my x100 at between 2200 and 3200 without ever having a quality issue.

I had the Nikon d40 for awhile and heard about the D7000 rumor early 2010. I knew my next dslr would be the D90 or better. What I wanted was the dual scroll wheels and 1980x1080p video recording features and this totally delivered. Also a bump in megapixal and the new cmos sensor with better iso for low lighting would sweeten the deal. I carried over the Nikon 18-200vr, 50mm 1.8 and 35mm 1.8 from my old D40.Photos:I been shooting this camera since the first week of November 2010 and have taken about 4000 shots/some movie clips. At first I thought the image was a little soft. The poster on this d7000 forum told me how to fixed it in the menu and all is fine now. I am finally getting night shots, when I did night photo stroll with my friends the D40 was too slow and my iso skill back then wasn't great. Since I gotten this I played with almost every buttons and setting and actually shot aperture priority now, I been using the Nikon present for the D40.Movies mode:I am still learning this, getting things to focus on the fly. It does continuous autofocusing, but not as zippy as the Sony A33 I played with. Overall the movies I made are fun, but in no way anything you see on blu-ray 1980x1080p. I find that I do a better job of manual focus and it is much quieter. I plug an external microphone to this and it really is a benefit to filming with audio for less background noise.Positives:+Great photos, Sony newest CMOS is good for low lighting.+Camera Body motor, I have a 50mm 1.8 that I can finally use.+ISO looks very good, once I leave 1600, I can notice some different+more external buttons, entry level camera like the D40 uses the submenu too much.+Bigger body and sturdier magnesium alloy material, I like that in my hands with the rubber insert.+LCD screen is much improved, now I do know if a shot is good or bad.+Live view photography, I don't use it much but I like the option too.+Nikon Service, I called about the stuck pixel in Movie mode, they said wait for the firmware, and it got fixed.+Nikon ViexNX is good for quick adjustment.+1080p 24fps Movie mode with continuous auto-focus(like I said not as zippy as Sony, but much quieter) I made a few youtube videos now.Neutral:Battery is bigger and more expensive then before. I Since I record clip more it is hard to compare to the D40 which just took pictures. I get 350-400 shots before I recharge. Some people claim 1000 shots per charge, but that is not me. My 4000shot hashas 5-6 charges already.Negative:-GPS, if the Sony A55 with the same cmos as this can have one for cheaper, why not the D7000.-I was hoping it be around $1000. The Sony A33 and A55 are much cheaper, with the same cmos.Overall I like the pictures that I got from the D7000, and all the external layout. I can bracket shots with ease, for HDR editing photoshop of course. I don't have to go into the submenu to turn on the remote. I even used the continuous burst for once. The Nikon ViexNX is a good software for quick fix like for contrast and sharpening. It is no way a Lightroom or Photoshop replacement, nope. It can edit video too, but I just use the Window Media player on Win7. I added the SB-700 to this camera and the two work well together, ie the wireless flash. I have/carry this camera around me like a cellphone.

I've owned this camera for nearly 8 months which was my update from a D80. I did side-by-side test shots to compare the iso performance and the D7000 @ 6400 had less noise than D80 @ 1600.The ergonomics of this camera is what sets it apart from all other cameras. I currently have the D3s and sold my D7000. Based on my experience with the D3s, I prepared a list of features that i missed having on my D7000:1) No 1080p video. (D7000 has it)2) No in-camera distortion control. (D7000 has it in the shooting menu as well as the retouch menu)3) No ability to assign active D-lighting to any function button. (D7000 is able to do so)4) In order to do any retouching i need to go the the retouch menu, choose the retouch method first, and then search for the particular photo i need to retouch!! In my D7000 i used to hit the OK button on any photo i'm viewing while in play mode and directly choose the retouch method which makes much more sense and is much faster.5) Auto-focus is not faster than my D7000 using the same lenses! booo :(6) Quite mode is useless. (better on my D7000)7) NO custom settings mode. (D7000 had three!!)It's worth noting that metering & WB accuracy is no better on the D3s than the D7000.The reason i upgraded to the D3s is taking advantage of full frame in terms of superior iso performance. D3s also has more buttons and switches, and it shoots 9-11 fps.So here you have it, I think this camera is perfect.WAKEUP NOTE: Don't expect this camera to take better picture quality than other current models such as the D5100 or the older D90 or even Canon T2i or T3i. Picture quality is nearly identical for all the above! Whether it's 12MP or 18MP that doesn't matter.

I own several Nikon cameras. After looking around, investigating to get a replacement for my old Nikon D70 I decided to go with this D7000.The camera is very well built, I've a mid to large hand, but camera fit and feeling is just perfect. Not too light, not too heavy. Controls are very accessible, better than on my old D70 (not too mention much better than my D50).The fact that you can write on both memories at the same time is something i'm looking to since i almost lost all of my photos of a trip to Italy because of a failure in my Compact Flash memory.In many cases, the fact that the camera is so 'smart' is not so good. I ended up in manual program most of the times... I still don't know if scene recognition is not very accurate, or the pictures I like look like other kind of scene. But the camera itself is amazing.I congratulate myself for this purchase every single day I use this camera.

Family man with kids, D70 was getting limited usage (portrait use only) while the point-n-shoot (with HD video, Pana LX3) was getting more usage. D7000 came in as a great upgrade (the cost part was the most painful one, $1500 with lens) option and I pulled the trigger wheh Amazon had it in stock momentarily last week. Have played with it for a brief 3 days and here are some additional info some of you might be interested in.I debated the kit lens (18-105) vs what I already had from D70 (18-70). The 18-70 is slightly faster, the 18-105 starts at 3.5 max open apperture, and quicks turns to 4.5 at 35mm equivalent. So that was a little bit of an issue I thought. But teh longer zoom range (105mm, which is more like 157mm with 1.5x DX factor) did provide an upgrade option without much weight (18-200 would have been better but is heavier, slightly more $$). But the super silent motor on the lens made it worth the upgrade - as for video taking, the slient motor does play a very useful role. It is just as sharp for a kit lens as you can get. My 18-70 didn't have VR. This one does and I think that is another positive if video shooting is important particularly if you are walking and recording video. So I justified myself with buying the kit lens. I already have the 50mm 1.8 (75mm with DX), for those portrait sessions. Might buy the 35mm 1.8 as my standard lens somepoint in the future.So my lens list would be:1. 35mm/1.8 for most indoor people/kid photo/video.2. 50mm/1.8 for portrait sessions.3. 18-105 (or 18-200) would be for travel/outdoors.The video:With kids around, video shooting is very important. And D7000 delivered that with great results actually - to my surprise. Videos are bright, audio is clear even with the built-in microphone. The kit lens aperture (3.5 max) didn't impact the video quality to be any dark - with ambient light, the quality was great.Photos with kit lens (18-105):The indoor photos came our very very colorful and bright - despite what I had thought of. I realized that D7000 was moving to ISO3200 (my max level under Auto config in the menu) to compensate for the low light. I was worried that ISO3200 would render the picture quality low - grainy. But I must admit - my jaws dropped when I saw that even at ISO3200, the quality is GREAT (16MP do help here), for most print situations (letter size or slightly more). I think, this is really where the D7000 shines the most compared to other prosumre DSLRs of today. I went ahead and changed the AUTO ISO setting to max of 1600, and teh results are still great with the kit lens. With my 50mm or 35mm 1.8 lens, I will move ISO to at most 400, and I am sure I will be more than happy.I will add in more comments as I play with it more.Just one line on the memory cards I am using:I bought two 8GB transcend Class10 SD cards and configured 'duplication' of all photos. So the 2nd card is used by D7000 as a backup (automatic copy). This is a great feature. So far, no issues or delays recording video or photos to these cards. These Class10 cards are not as fast as the SanDisk 30MB/s cards, but I don't see issues in my situations. Combined, they were much cheaper than the SanDisk equivalents.with 8GB at full resolution and FINE JPEG setting, I think the total photos one can take are in the 700-800 range (sorry don't have details in front of me at this time). The default on D7000 was full resolution and 'NORMAL' JPEG, which was yielding higher total photo capacity (1,100 I think).cheersPN

This review is for the D7000 body and the 18-200mm VRII lens (sold separately), not the 18-105mm kit lens.This camera is incredible for it's ease of use, options, richness of renderings and portability. I took it out of the box, charged the battery and left on a 3 week holiday to Europe with the 18-200mm attached and 2 cards, one in each slot. No extra flash, no gadgets, no back-up battery, no manual and no back-up camera. I'm coming off a D60 which was an overall great camera.I probably took 1500 pictures in 3 weeks in every lighting situation and all kinds of weather including, yes, rain. I also used all modes and all scenery configurations. I did not shoot video and I rarely if ever used the flash. Excluding my mistakes, every single picture was sharp, rich and clear. Even at high noon, into the sun, the fast shutter gives you decent pictures.I'm just an amateur when it comes to photography but this camera, with this lens, is just unbelievable. I struggle with the idea that $2K got me this incomparable camera AND the 18-200 lens...how can you beat that?Everything in this camera can be adjusted to suit the user including the flash speed. The Scene modes are brilliant. The light modes are 100% accurate. The menus are incredibly detailed. You can sort pictures in files or by day or week or any other way you want. You can edit pictures on-screen, trim them, experiment with them and then save or delete them. You can shoot RAW or jpeg. You get live mode, a video cam, a real camera body, not plastic. You can use any lens ever built by Nikon. AF is awesome. You can shoot in the dark and in the rain.With regards to the battery, you get a cord and an adapter that plugs right into the wall socket...corded or cord-less...forget the cord and stick to the adapter. WRT battery life, I couldn't get over how long a charge lasts and yes, you can check the status of the battery as well as it's age via the menu. You can easily take 500 pictures on a charge, no problem at all.You also get a USB cable, video cables and Nikon software, the ViewNX2 for Windows or Mac....basic but decent.In short, this is a camera for someone who is interested in photography and wants to take better pictures. It can help an amateur like me achieve a higher level of capability.Buy this camera and just take pictures.

This is my first DSLR camera. I had a SLR in the film days and when the digital era came around I got stuck in the high end point and shoot cameras, and that is all I have had. My daughter took a photography class in high school and had been bugging me to get a DSLR. She would tell me that they take way better pictures and are faster. I started researching and landed on the Nikon D7000 with 18-200 lens. I ordered it up and when it arrived, my first reaction was, WOW...this is nice, high quality all the way. Then I saw the pictures that came out of it, double WOW!!! The pictures blow away any point and shoot I have ever owned, and talk about fast, my son diving midair for the football, press the shutter button....you got it, and a perfect shot at that! The high ISO on this camera is great, pictures up to 6400 look good. The HD video feature is nice. It would have been nice to have more frame rates to choose from in video, but the picture quality makes up for this minor shortfall. This camera is worth every penny.

Very disappointing to wait and get a defective product the very first day of use. Nikon D7000 with the release shutter which stays high after shooting.Body bought as new with all ready a scratch and a malfunction.It took much more time that expected to get the deliveryI have been using Amazon a lot in the past. It is the very first time that it is so bad.

I have this camera for about a month now and just last weekend (May 7th) I got a first chance to use it, unfortunately.I used it with Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 and Sigma 50-150mm F2.8 lenses on my flight tour over Chicago downtown.As an owner of Nikon D200 I can say that this body is lighter and smaller, which is good and bad.Good part - your bulk load would be not so heavy as with D200. Bad part - if you get used to holding D200 or similar body (D300) then D7000 would feel not so comfy (big) in your hands. Plus, if you have big hands (long fingers) it might not be a very comfortable. But it is something that you can get used to with time.Another, thing that would require getting used to is controls, focusing - D7000 has more focusing points but also it has a bit different setting than D200. If set it up as you like it at first then it should not be an issue, but if you would rely on basic auto focusing (default all 39 points) it might be frustrating because it might focus on something that you do not expect.Well, again - just matter of time to get know this camera and set it up for your self.In regards of quality / sharpness of the image - I got scattered result due to condition of shooting - I was in flying plane with some little turbulence. But when I was standing on air field most of my images were sharp. Just a side note - I shoot RAW (NEF) which would require post editing, including some sharpening.In addition to this part - it all depend on what glass you are using. This factor would contribute to sharpness and brightness of the images - greatly. And you have to remember that each lens has it own "sweet spot" - aperture that would produce sharp images - it is not always F16 or F22.Along with purchasing this camera I purchased 2 32Gb SD class 10 card (Transcend). Unfortunately for me - one card in Slot #1 failed when I was in the air. I tried to resurrect it but ended up removing it and moving card in slot # 2 into #1 slot. But it is not cameras fault. After this everything worked well.Another point that you would need to get used to is buffer size of this camera, especially if you are shooting RAW and with continuous shooting. As to my test in High Speed Continuous shooting camera can store up to 10 RAW images and then it shuts off to unload buffer which takes about 9-10 seconds and this is with class 10 cards.As oppose to D200 which can handle 21 sequential RAW images it might look not enough. But - it is for you to decide if you can live with such buffer.Menus - are similar to D200, so if you a proud owner of this camera then it should not be a problem for you to work with menus.I'm sure there are many other little things that can be found (good and bad) - but it would be just a matter of your own taste.Wish you good luck and have fun with this camera if you are buying it.

I am upgrading from a D5000 which I used for a couple of years and wanted a step up in terms of control, durability and low light shooting. Got this during the thanksgiving sale and this camera beat my expectations...It has a beautiful viewfinder and a big LCD screen. Even the photos you take in Auto mode in low light look great. The battery charge is never ending. Also the two SD card slots is a blessing for me because many times I leave the SD card in my computer and take camera with me. The second SD card saves me :) Overall this a very good SLR for both starters and professionals.

I own the Nikon D80 and was looking for an upgrade camera without breaking the bank. Researched the D7000 and was everything i was looking for and then some.i have owned the D7000 for approximately 3 weeks now. i have taken hundreds of photos since i received it. i went from the D80 10MP to 16MP. At first i thought i was not understanding my camera and these 39 Focus Points compared to the D80's eleven FP.i took some low light/ evening photos and the camera really captured well. i was not using a tripod and i put the focus problem on them being handheld pics. But still had the focus fuzzy issue. I even tried my D80 and it took grainier but crisper photos in comparison.i went camping last weekend with the family and couldn't wait to take some nature/ family photos. Nearly 95% of my photos are terrible and unusable, due to the Back Focus problem. On the camera review screen it is not an issue but once i got home and downloaded 250 pictures it is extremely noticeable focus problems. Group photos had all the front row people out of focus and the scenery 20 foot behind crystal clear.i thought it was user error (new camera/39 FP) But the more i shot and tried different lens, different settings no better.i even let a pro friend of mine try and and she said it is definitely a back focus issue.Conclusion:I LOVED the D7000 compared to my D80 in ergonomics, weight, and screen size.I cannot comment on the optics and picture quality because none of the photos i took came out correct.i am sending the camera back to AMAZON. i hope to repurchase another D7000 soon when they are back in stock. I will give it one more try before completely condemning the D7000.UPDATE 8-13-2012My D7K was stolen in April 2012. I purchased another one in June. It had a focus problem, i say this because i again sent NIKON some test pictures and they confirmed a problem and told me to send it in for repair. I had already returned the camera to Amazon who gave me a refund instead of shipping me a new camera. As of todays date, i have not purchased a new D7k becasue of the back focus issues.

Just sent my body to Nikon for repair after 11 months of use. I put about 20K on it during the past year, doing both video and professional photo work with it.The camera is a backup/DX body to my D700, which is far superior.The D7K is a big advancement from other DX bodies in the Nikon line. It is not particularly well suited for professional use, especially weddings, which I attempted.First, the autofocus is worse than the D300's. By worse, I mean it struggles greatly in low light. Not good for a wedding camera. Consistenly, all my shots of processionals with this camera on Continuous focus have been off. Its tracking abilities in low light are very poor.It's also noisy. Way noisier than the D700. Easily 3 stops. Above 400, it gets very noisy, very quickly.The images are also soft. Even at ISO 100, I am getting images that seem soft. Yes, I'm using a tripod and top-notch optics.Nikon's noise processing really takes a toll on sharpness. Their DX cameras have always had this issue, and the D7000 does little to improve upon it.Color is OK. With some work, you can get good skin tones.Exposure is generally good, but the LCD is very misleading. Use the histogram for your exposure decisions. The LCD is way too bright, even when it is dialed back to -3.The video is excellent. I feel the quality, when using great class like Zeiss, is on par with my Panasonic HMC150. Audio is horrible. Forget it. Buy a Zoom H4N for that. You will also need the Zacuto finder accessory if you plan to do video with this. If you don't use something like that, expect unsharp results. The LCD by itself is nearly useless for focusing.The two big minuses for video: the screen does not articulate. What's with this? Even the cheaper models do that, and of course, Canon.The other issue is no 1080 30p or 60p. You can't do slow motion at 24p.This is a stop-gap body for me. I'm waiting for a D700 with video, and then this will go to the auction. In the meantime, accepting its limitations, it can do a decent job on family photos and some landscape stuff. But compared to the D700, the images are just way softer.

Bought this camera 2 month back. Tried to use "Manual" mode for a couple of days, all the pictures looked rubbish. So thought I am a newbie again in this camera, so started using "Auto" and "Aperture" priority for almost a month. In that whole month, never took a single "wow" photo. All pictures are either "soft", as if it has been washed out or don't know where the focus is. Or when a group picture is taken, everything in the backend is super sharp, but not the people in front. Or if I take a very close up shot, with single focus definitely focused on persons eyes, all his/her hairs will be in super sharp.My gear includes Nikon 24-70mm, Nikon 28-300mm, Nikon 35mm 1.8 prime and a kit lens. To my surprise, kit lens is the only one which is working fine... aahh, yes it is. All my big lenses are junk in this case. Tried all kinds of settings, "Autofocus fine tune" in the camera, adjust "exposure compensation", "AP-S"/"AP-C", "focus lock" .. nope, nothing worked.Called Nikon last week, sent sample pictures, they asked me to send the camera back. I just packed this now, will be sending the box tomorrow, with the money from my own pocket. Will update once they analyzed my camera.Update Jan 28: They got the camera on thursday, got the update of the status online on Friday. As of now its in "Estimate Accepted" which means they verified all my warranty information, I don't need to pay anything. Next itCamera : Category - B1 Minor parts replaced Problem - Focus, BackFocusing, to GWOLens 24-70 : Category-Single price complete repair (******don't know what the heck is this) Problem - Focus, Backfocusing, Clean and CheckLens 35mm prime: Category B2 Major parts replaced Problem - Focus, Backfocus, Clean and CheckUpdate Jan 31: The camera status is 'in shop', which means they probably would be sending it today or tomorrow.

I bought this camera in Dec 2010 from Amazon. Right out of pack it has an "Err" message and camera simply would not take any pictures or videos.I should have returned the camera, a huge mistake I did not. Thought it's a minor config issue or a firmware issue, fiddled with the cards (format, etc), switch on & off, after a long try by random accident the error disappeared.Camera works fine for 2 months or so, same "Err" issue again. This time took it to a local Nikon authorized camera repair shop. They said the spring mount was out of spec, they fixed it. Camera works for few weeks, then Err issue resurfaces. Took to another Nikon authorized dealer, they could not repair it and sent it to Nikon Support.They put a bunch of new parts, shutter, aperture units, etc. I get the camera. It's my daughter's 5th birthday. I took a few pictures and video, but right when her friends are singing happy birthday and she looks so beautiful surrounded by her friends and family and ready to blow the candle.. bamb "Err" ghost resurfaces. It could not have happened at a worst time. As before nothing would fix it. Had to settle for some basic iPhone pictures and not to mention to deal with a very disappointed wife and kids, embarrassment in front of guests, etc.Called Nikon support this time to replace the damn camera as I can't trust with their repair, I doubt how well they test their fixes before they ship it to customer. Can't take the repeated down time & missed priceless opportunity to shoot pics on special occasions. Nikon support said they only repair for replacement I have to contact their corporate customer service. Which I did and was placed on a long hold twice, customer agent would simply say send it to us, we will decide what needs to be done. When asked to talk to the manager/supervisor, the guy just put me on a long hold and I never got connected to the manager.Pros: Good low light pictures & videos when it works. Rich feature sets.Con: Very Unreliable Terrible Nikon Support and Customer Service. They should be really named Customer NO support and Customer NO Service. Had to be without a camera on a cruise & daughter's 5th birthday.This is an ongoing fight, Nikon can probably replace this camera after a protracted fight, but they can never replace the priceless lost opportunity to shoot on special occasions or vacations.Now that I look around, there are several threads on this problem:forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1034&message=37334750nikonians.org/forums/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=329&topic_id=2802&mesg_id=2802&page=

Going from a D50 to this is like going from driving a Honda to an Audi. While the Honda is good and dependable, the Audi gets you there faster, easier and in a better mood. That's the D7000.Pros:two command wheelseasy and available controls; not a lot of menu divingGREAT in low light100% viewfinderU1 and U2 customizable user modesTwo SD card slotsCons:Can stand to use a little more max sync when using off-camera flash (the max for the D50 was 1/500, but that was a product of its mechanical shutter).

I like my D7000 which i bought recently. I am a Singaporean and used my nephew's address in Houston to purchase this. I didn't know that it does not come with international warranty. And even the registration of product and product downloads everything from US based websites. It would have been nice if I were given a freedom to register with local Nikon website to enjoy local events & news.Anyway I love my Nikon D7000. Hope it will give me fantastic results in my shootings....Cheers

I own this camera and a cannon rebel 7d. The cannon costs more, is less true to life, does not have as many focus points and cannot match this for quality. However, this camera sucks on ease of use. My wife can pick up my cannon and understand it. This I had to many times open up the giant manual in order to use it properly. I love Nikon, but this camera could use an overhaul on the user interface. Though, bang for you buck, this is a really great camera for those semi professional photographers. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great camera.

I love this Camera, I originally wanted the D800 but was not available for sooo long, so I decided to save some cash and buy the 7000. I am very pleased with my purchase. My pictures come out great, it's still a learning process for me, but so far it has exceeded my expectations. It handles well in low light situations. If the iso is not set high enough, it will pause for about 5 seconds trying to create the image, then it would end up being a fuzzy unusable image. It's great for diverse shooting. Portraits, landscapes, events, etc. You will love the magazine quality images this camera produces.

Good camera, came fast. Put it right to work when I got it. It was an upgrade from the D5000 and D3100 before that.I shoot videos and photos so I needed an upgrade without breaking the bank. This is only the beginning.Advise: if want to upgrade you CANNOT go wrong with this. If you decide to later upgrade again, the retail value is good as well. Go out get a decent lens and shoot.Go shoot!!! It's all about the visionary not-so-much the camera.

Focus is a joke. I have to manually focus the camera THROUGH live view to get exactly what I want. If I try to take pictures via the viewer, it would not match what I saw.I, at first, blamed it on the new lens I got (1.4 Sigma 30mm)- then it also wasn't doing well with my two other lenses (1.8 nikkor 35mm and 3.5 18-135mm). I then tested the 1.4 lens with my OLD D80 camera, it worked beautifully.After over a month of frustrations (and lost images), I gave up and returned the D7000.STAY away from that model.

First let me start by saying I not a professional photographer. I would consider myself an enthusiast that in the past few years have stepped up to DSLR's and Micro 4/3 cameras. I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of these D7000's and use it for an entire weekend a few weeks ago. My previous camera prior to the D7000 was a Panasonic Lumix GH1. I loved that camera especially the video capabilities but I sold it in anticipation of the new Panasonic Lumix GH2 being released. Then Panasonic started to delay the release and I desperately needed a camera so I decided to purchase the Nikon D7000 instead. I figured if I liked it I would simply keep it and pass on the Panasonic Lumix GH2.So here are my impressions after a full weekend shooting a birthday party and baptism.PROs- Feels great in your hand, atleast for me. My wife did not care for this beast of a camera.- Low Light Shooting was absolutely incredibly. I noticed this shooting inside a church. Best ever!- Picture quality was also excellent. I had many compliments on the photos after the weekend.- Has Autofocus motor for NON AF-S Lenses so if you have old Nikon lenses this is a plus.- 2 SD memory card slots. Kinda cool. Not sure how much I need it but I like the concept if I want to use 1 slot as backup.- Speed of the camera was ridiculously fast when taking pics thru the viewfinder! Incredible.- You can do a lot of in camera editing of photos which is really neat.- Bracketing feature is cool, especially if you're not a pro like me.All in all from a picture standpoint I don't think I could have been happier.Cons- Autofocus in Video was down right terrible! It's slow and sometimes never resolves and you get stuck with a blurry video. Nikon needs a lot of work here still. Plan on using Manual AF. Continuous Autofocus on this is more of marketing thing.- In liveview mode picture taking is impossible. So SLOW! Not big of a deal for me but my wife likes the liveview.- No articulating screen. Why not? All other cameras have an articulating screen, even entry level dslr's now.Summary:If you simply want a top notch camera and don't mind lugging around a decent size DSLR this is a great camera. If you want a nice camera, smaller footprint, but better video capabilities then go with the Panasonic Lumix GH1 or upcoming GH2.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0043VE27Y/ref=cm_cr_asin_lnkIf you choose the Panasonic you sacrifice on the low light performance but get superior video results and it's a much smaller camera and lenses.Ultimately I sold my D7000 because I could not get past the poor implementation of Continuous Autofocus for video. Some will say that is ridiculous but when my main objective of using this is taking pictures of my family which includes 2 little ones I prefer a properly working continuos autofocus feature over manual anyday. In addition I want 1 device to take my pics and videos and the Panasonic GH2 should fit the bill perfectly if Panasonic could ever start shipping them. My wife also prefers the size and weight of the Panasonic over the Nikon. If I have to wait any longer I may have to go look at a Canon T2i or 60D and start all over again!

The decision to get this camera (d7000) and a couple cheap lenses (Nikkor 18-55mm VR & the Nikkor 50mm 1.8) versus the cheaper body (d5100) and a higher end Nikkor lens was a tough one. I spent at least a month researching and reading about both models. Love the vari-angle LCD on the 5100, and i was almost married to that. A photographer friend of the family recommended the D7000 and i began to be more and more interested in it, the more i learned about it. The key differences in this camera really make it stand out as being more user friendly to an amateur photographer who is beyond the point & shoot level. I realized what frustrated me most in my Canon point & shoot was how difficult and clunky it was to toggle around the in-camera menu system to change my exposure settings when shooting in Manual mode. This camera makes adjusting your exposure a breeze. The picture quality is impressive, and although i have only shot the above mentioned 2 Nikkor lenses with it so far, i am eagerly awaiting the opportunity to purchase a lens with a better zoom range, and put it to the test. I am no expert or professional by any means; this is my first DSLR, and i can't express how glad i am that i went with this camera over it's cheaper counterpart. I went to some big box stores and played with each model, which took awhile, because they were hard to find. I would recommend picking it up and trying it in-store if you are unsure about which camera to purchase. I finally purchased the d7000 after finding the cheapest price i could get online, without sacrificing vendor reliability (there were some very shady looking sites selling this camera for about the price of the D5100). Battery life is great, picture quality is wonderful, and once you get accustomed to the menu system and get a feel for the button layout on the camera body, it's a joy to shoot with. The heft/ weight of the camera feels nice and solid in the hand (i just couldn't get over how light and small and plastic-y the d5100 felt). I didn't purchase this camera for video use, so i don't have much to say on that subject, although i was quite happy with what video i have shot so far, (just casual short clips while on vacation). Coming from pure point & shoot experience i was a bit intimidated, but warmed up quickly to the feel of the camera. It's sexy, no doubt about it! Highly recommend it!

I bought this camera as it had very high ratings and after about 2000 pictures I can say that it lives up to those ratings. If youplan to buy this camera I would advise the purchase of a good book on the Nikon D7000 to make up for its manual. This a complicated camera and books by Darrell Young and David Busch can speed up the initial setup. The camera is very good forusing older Nikon lenses even those that focus manually. I have used digital cameras for several years and this D7000 easilybeats anything I have used before.

My new camera after 7 years with Nikon D50. D7000 is nice replacement. I bought first one last month but had back focus issue. I tried to AF fine tune but did not work even with -20. Returned it. But the next one came out to be great. Image quality is awesome. I believe I have got another keeper.

After reading the reviews on Amazon and other places, and checking for problems I decided to get this DSLR. I have noticed no problems that have been described in a few forums. This is perfect for me, size and weight, with all of the features I need, and not having to carry aFX sized DSLR(or pay FX sized prices).

This is my second d7000, got it cheaper this time. compliments my prime lenses. This camera has been around for quite some time. you will never be disappointed on this camera's performance.You have to spend some time to learn all the features this camera has to offer. HDR is really good on this one.

Like the title says, I will be returning my D7000. I don't want to return for another in hopes of getting a "good one" out of the bunch. I read of the backfocus issue in the reviews, but since the positive reviews far outweighed the negative reviews and since I purchased this in June 2012 (well after initial releases would have sold out) I felt confident I would not experience the problem. Both my 50mm 1.8D, and 35mm 1.8G will not focus tack sharp despite maxing out the auto focus fine tuning to -20 (improved when making the adjustment, but not sharp). My 18-200 is the best so far, but also not tack sharp despite adjustment. I'm stopping there. Side by side comparisons with my D90 shows the problem is not with my lenses, as the D90 shots look great. This is a real downer as I was looking forward to the D7000 and its host of new/improved features (when compared to the D90). For anyone about to make the purchase I say do so with caution, and make sure you test thoroughly while you are still in your return period. Such a unacknowledged problem in a camera at this price point is simply inexcusable.

I recently ordered the D7000 as a replacement for my D80. Absolutely loving it. If you're looking for a good advanced amateur camera, it's worth considering.The control layout is convenient and makes it easy to get to all of the adjustments you want to make. If you're the kind of photographer who regularly assumes control of ISO, aperture, shutter speed, and uses various options like mirror lockup, and only occasionally will use a "scene mode," this is very convenient. If on the other hand you're the type who likes the camera to make most of the decisions and only occasionally wants to assume full control, you might prefer something like the D3100 or D5000. The photos will be nearly as good; what you're getting is convenience and some upgraded features on the D7000.Image quality is excellent, and the camera includes some new features, like the ability to autocorrect lens distortion. When matched with a modern Nikon lens, the D7000 receives information that allows it to automatically adjust pincushion and barrel distortion. It's convenient and works pretty well. If you're shooting RAW mode and plan to enter a contest, I'd say making your own adjustments in Photoshop is better. But if you're on a more casual shoot, it's a nice feature to switch on to save a lot of processing work later.Whatever camera you buy, make sure you purchase a good lens. I would recommend buying only the body, and then getting good glass. If you're on a limited budget, a $600 lens on a $600 camera is better than a $200 lens on a $1000 camera.The one downside of the D7000 is the video performance. It's a cute gimmick, but honestly, SLR's just aren't ideal for video, at least not with today's technology. I don't really care, as I don't use video much. It's nice to have in a pinch, but if you're big on video plan on getting a dedicated video camera or good point-and-shoot.

I have used a D700 before and also a D80 and D90. This is very close to the D700 in low light and although I shoot in RAW for editing later it is great to be able to simultaneously shoot JPEGs, processed for a little saturation and sharpening in-camera and fire them off in email or post to the Web with zero other processing. This camera is head and shoulders above the D80 and D90; especially for low-light. I can shoot ISO 6400 and have very useable images. With some noise reduction in camera or post-processing they are really great and it allows that much more flexibility in low-light.Another thing I love about this camera is it gets the exposure right nearly every time! It's impressive. I often flipped from aperture priority to manual on the D80 to get it right. I can't believe the camera is so much lighter than the D700 either. I really love this thing. My most frequent setting which works for what I do much of the time is to aperture priority with the Auto-ISO set to ISO 100, shutter speed 1/125 and Max ISO 6400.I like that there is a custom menu, My Menu, for easy access to options I use all the time. I like that I can assign the Fn button to Picture Control and switch between Vivid and Portrait in under a second.With such a capable camera and with the HDR craze these days I am a little surprised it only does 3 shots for bracketing but 3-5 shots is all you really need. If you want 5 you have to do those other 2 manually. That is why I gave it 4 stars in performance. Otherwise I just love this thing.The HD video works well but you will hear that autofocus going unless you have an external mic or turn off autofocus/use a manual focus lens. I bought this for stills but the video is still handy once you remember you have that capability.There are probably 5 more things I love about this camera but can't recall without it in my hands. Anyhow, if you are on the fence. Jump off and get it. It's true the camera does not make the photographer but this one sure helps. Since upgrading from the D80 people tell me how much they like my photos and I think some of it is attributable to the warmness of portraits shot in the low-light this thing can do. Unconsciously people are probably identifying how these quality photos differ from their pop-up flash facial blow out shots.

The only disturbing thing is the planned obsolescent of any consumer electronic device. The latest model isn't the latest six months down the road.

Read Ken Rockwell's online review. This is the best DX format Nikon ever. And its handling beats every other Nikon made, even the pro-lines. Its images compare well to the newest D600- he thinks better in some aspects. I am amazed at its performance. I am an amateur photographer and this camera has driven me to new heights of creativity. Love it. Looking for beautiful images every day now.

Excellent performing DX camera. This camera, while likely fine for a beginner, will be more helpful for a more advanced photographer who can grasp a lot of its features. It has multiple ways of tweaking options and camera functions. It has two user customizable modes that allow you to reliably reproduce your favorite camera setups with just the twist of a mode dial. There is a user customizable "My Menu" feature so you can find you most often used options, like for instance Auto-ISO (which adjusts the ISO so your shutter speed never falls below a preset that you have set).The D7000 is a revelation in High ISO performance compared to my D200; even with pixel peeping, well exposed ISO 3200 pictures take minimal chroma noise reduction to look extremely clean. I think this D7000 is at least 2 stops better than my D200 and at least 4 stops better than my Canon S95 point and shoot. Related to this, it has great dynamic range when shot in RAW.Autofocus and flash performance are excellent as far as I am concerned. It has a wireless flash commander mode, which is very useful for speedlight owners. The Nikon flash system is quite excellent and flexible, I find. Couple flashes with the excellent higher ISO performance, and you can really maximize what you are able to light with flash.The body itself seems well built, though there is a bit of flex in the hand grip portion.Minimal complaints, other than the grip flex and perhaps the metering blows highlights a little too readily.I definitely recommend it for Nikon DX users, certainly for those upgrading cameras that are more than a generation old, like my D200.

I am actually writing this review on 6/6/2012, It looks like i had deleted the original review and for what ever reason Amazon has set this up so that if you REPOST a review for the same item it posts it on the date you originally posted it on. Anyway.I love it my D7000! Nothing beats this camera for the price. I gave it 4 stars because unfortunately there is no "perfect" camera. The fact is that newer technology most of the time brings more bugs with it. 16MP is already high enough, personally i dont need anything higher than that, i don't even have it set to 16MP, i usually put it in 9MP or lower. I don't print LARGE prints, and i certainly don't get paid for it.Anyway, the reason why i have posted this info is to let everyone that owns a D7000 to try something that i read in an online forum. I just followed what they said, reset EACH menu settings WITHIN the menus in the camera and do a couple other simple things. I just did it myself right before i typed this info for you and i will test my camera within the next couple of days, starting today, and i will post the results of this simple procedure. By the way, this information was given by a Nikon Technician. Here is the short and simple procedure, Good luck everyone i hope it works and please post your comments to see the overall results. Here you go:Reset all and EACH of the menu system to default settings. Then turned off the camera. While off, press the two green buttons at the same time Holding them down, use another finger to turn the camera on. The camera will then blink after two seconds, then shut it back off while holding down the buttons(basically you never let go of the two green buttons).UPDATE AS OF 6/8/2012:After performing the above reset, I have ALSO calibrated all my lenses with AF Fine Tuning and it looks like it really worked!! I am very happy, i have been testing the camera for about two days so far, and focusing the same way i was before when getting the back focusing, and so far it looks VERY VERY GOOD. The camera seems to be focusing exactly where it should be compared to before, i am seeing a BIG diffence specially in low light. This is very good news! Bottom line: Even if you do all the above you still HAVE to know which AF setting AND metering mode you have to use depending on what scenario you are in. The camera DOES NOT do this automatically for you.

I am buy no means a profesional photographer so please keep this in mind when reading this brief reveiew. I have owned the D7000 for just about a year now and the best way I can some it up is simply; the more I use this camera the more I enjoy using it. It seems that every time I pick up the camera I learn somthing new that makes my photos come out better. My first DSLR was the D3000 with the kit lens, I was told the D3000 was a great starter camera and would take some time to out grow. Well simply put after about three months with the D3000 I was bored and was tired of the slow AF, very grainy photos at medium to high ISO, cumbersome menu etc....I think you get the point. When I first purschased the D7000, pulled it out of the box and tried to decipher the owners manual I was a little overwhelmed, However it made me take my time, read articles and get some dummy books for this camera. Over all it has really pushed me to be a better photographer. I have taken steller photos with the kit lens of scenery, night shots and protraits and have no complaints so far (the only reason I get a bad shot is due to operator error). D7000 is much easier to change WB, ISO, Shutter speed,F stop, Metering and other functions on the fly (NOT THE CASE WITH THE D3000). Not to mention the 6 FPS, which is fun to have at your disposal, man I love this camera! In conclusion:1.) After a year of using the D7000 I am still learning about the features and functions2.) Still enjoy using the camera as well as the photo's I take3.) Enjoy the Kit Lens just purchased the 50mm F/1.8 D lens and MAN took my photos to to a new level)If your wavering on whether or not to spend the money on this camera I PROMISE, you will not regret it. I regret being cheap and settling on the D3000 and wasting 400 bucks! Not to mention the D7000 is a well built camera with great weather sealing.... I hope this helps

This replaced my old D100 from Nikon. It is lighter, faster, and has more functions. The picture quality is amazing. Wish there was a beefier connector for the shutter release cable.
