Nikon D7000

I have been using this Camera for almost a year. I can there for provide you with an insight in having used it longer than a quick trip around the block.
Without boring you to death with all the tech stuff i instead will summarise it.
I consider this Camera for use of an Enthusiast to inlude professional performance usage.
The Nikon D7000 Camera is a DX - APS-C size sensor Camera, meaning you have a smaller size sensor in comparison to a full size 35mm sensor or the Canon APS-H size sensor being slightly smaller to the full size 35mm.

I bought this camera second hand as a backup for my D700 and because it has video, which the D700 lacks. There are some improvements on the D700 that I have noted to date. The Live View lever and smoother operation when taking a picture in live view mode. Better screen for zoom focussing when doing macro. Smaller in size - better for travel or someone who wants lighter camera. It is 16 vs 12 megapixel, however this does not necessarily translate to better pictures. The full size sensor and larger pixels of the D700 result in much better light s...Read more

I have bought Nikon d7000 camera kit with 18-55 mm VR lens, There should be a separate warranty card one for camera itself and one for lens.

I have not got any of them? The one peace of paper what i found is full of Chinese or Japanese and only one statement is written on the whole peace f paper in English which says that this is only valid only in Japan.That''s it.

I have been waiting for this camera for almost a week. I have to leave country for good and i have been waiting for their response for almost 6 days. I left my recorded voice...Read more

I looked around for a long time before settling on the D7000 and I am very glad that I did.

It is quite easy to use and there are some great tutorials on YouTube that I use for learning how to use it better. I especially like setting it to a single focus point - it means that I can set the focus to almost anywhere I like rather than the camera deciding where it should be set to.

I brought from the grey market and don't regret this. If it ever needs to be repaired they use the same repairers as what Nikon would.

Next thing to get is th...Read more

The Nikon D7000 is brilliant in many ways, 39 point 3d tracking autofocus system, colour 3d matrix meter,ergonomic layout and handling, full HD video etc etc etc.
The 7000 is a great little fast handling and powerful imaging machine capable of amazing results in the right hands but what it is not is a beginners camera to learn on.To really appreciate and take advantage of the fully customizable features of this camera the photographer will need a good understanding of photography and SLR camera operation unless he/she wants to simply use the A...Read more

Until the D300s is updated, this remains the best Nikon APS-C camera on the market and rivals Canon's 60D. It only has a half magnesium frame so is not as rugged as the professional grade D700/D300s but is nevertheless weathersealed and better built than the D90.

A significant upgrade from the D90 with a more complex AF system, video recording ability and burst rate. High ISO noise is very well controlled with usable 5x7" prints to ISO 3200 (provided it is exposed well) and possibly ISO 6400 if you use Lightroom3 for some noise reduction. Ho...Read more

I work as both a graphic designer and photographer and had been looking for a high quality digital SLR for sometime. Most cameras that had the features I was looking for were way beyond my budget, so it was a pleasant surprise when I came across the Nikon D7000.

It is a well built camera that not only handles anything you throw at it, but also features a lot of manual and automatic settings that suit both professionally seasoned photographers and amateurs alike.

It is compatible with most Nikon mount lens, and provides the creative photog...Read more

This can be a point and shoot camera while set to auto, but the photographer wishing to expand their skills will find this a major leap forward. Lots to rave about, and very nicely built.
This camera should last awhile too from a technical point of view, with lots of Nikon lenses to choose from for those wishing to explore photography. Worth the extra outlay over other models perhaps, but only if you are willing to delve into photography as a subject and get the best out of this camera. Where it scores is through the amount of readily accessi...Read more

I am a student photographer and purchased the Nikon D7000 for my first Dslr camera. Although I have never used a digital slr before, I have found it very good. The controls are easy once you learn where they are, the battery life is ok, it cleans itself (the sensor) and numerous other awesome features. The only problems I've had have been the kit lenses. I have the 18-105mm and the 55-300mm. While the 18-105mm is ok, I would definitely recommend the 18-55mm instead for low light as it's much better. I've also had trouble focussing this lens due...Read more

Recently got this dslr for my partner and she loves it.

She still is a beginner but was definitely looking for a camera that would last her awhile, so something more than a beginners.

After reading many reviews and comparing many models, i narrowed it down to the D7000 and Canon 60D. After asking a friends who knows abit about it, he recommended the Nikon....and im glad we did, turns out my partner is a big Nikon fan...(phewww!)

Anyways, back to the review.
From what weve done so far(as beginners)...after a quick flick through the man...Read more

This is my second slr and I wanted something a notch up from entry level. I was tossing up between this and the Canon 60D. Both had very similar features and specs but after handling both units I chose the Nikon based on the quality of the magnesium alloy casing, it just feels more substantial. There are a few features that you commonly only see in professional level cameras such as 100% coverage through the few finder and weather proof casing and for first time slr users it has an impressive 39 auto focus points.

Image quality is really n...Read more
