    The D7000 shoots full 1080p video at 24fps, has manual video controls and is a great option for people who want to use the Nikon system (including all those yummy manual Nikon lenses without having to use adapters). It also takes great photos.

    Just plug it in to a USB port on a Windows 10 computer and off you go. You can buy better ones such as Hero7 by Gopro. Personally I could not be bothered with the hassle of setting up a DSLR to do this job.

    The Nikon D7000 has an APS-C sized sensor which is smaller than 35mm film, so it's designed to work with "DX" lenses as well as full-frame "FX" lenses.

The D7000 is an excellent mid-range digital SLR from Nikon that has a full complement of advanced and automatic features, a new 16 megapixel CMOS sensor, good low-light performance, full 1080p HD video capabilities, and can autofocus in video and Live View modes.

When it was announced in September the D7000 took a lot of people by surprise. Although a D90 successor had been on the horizon for some time, what wasn't expected was how close in specification terms the new camera would turn out to be to the D300S. In some respects, in fact, the D7000 actually outguns its (supposedly) semi-pro cousin, and offers a compelling upgrade option to both D90 and D300S owners, whilst nominally sitting between the two in Nikon's current lineup. Although ergonomically, the D7000 is a very close match for the D90, its overall 'feel' is considerably more serious, thanks to a magnesium alloy body shell and slightly thicker rubber coating on the hand grip and rear of the camera. At 16.2Mp the D7000 offers the second highest resolution of any Nikon DSLR, behind only the 24Mp D3X. All of these pixels are packed onto a newly developed CMOS sensor, which is almost certainly the same or very similar to that in the Sony Alpha SLT-A55. As well as extra resolution, the new sensor also offers a higher 'standard' ISO span of 100-6400, expandable up to the equivalent of ISO 25,600.

Nikon D7000 Review - Point and Shoot Camera

When I started looking at the Nikon D7000, it was way back in December 2010. I purchased it for my birthday, knowing full well that it was a brand new camera and would be the perfect step up from the Nikon D40x, the lowest-end DSLR I could have purchased from Nikon’s current lineup. I was looking for the best point and shoot digital camera. As an amateur photographer who’d only started with DSLRs back in 2008, two years with one […]

A new pro-sumer-level Nikon DX-format DSLR body that offers durability and functionality for serious photographers.Nikon's widely anticipated D7000 slots into the company's range between the popular D90 and D300s models. A tempting upgrade for D90 owners, it features a 16.2-megapixel (effective) sensor, new EXPEED 2 image processor and expanded sensitivity range that reaches up to ISO 25,600. A new AF system uses 39 focus points, including 9 cross-type sensors in the centre, while a new 2016-pixel RGB metering sensor underpins the built-in Scene Recognition System.
