Good detail and dynamic range (even better in RAW), Exceptionally low shadow noise in RAW files, Arguably the best high ISO performance of any current APS-C DSLR, Good build quality and handling, Maximum ISO of 25,600 st full resolution, 1080p HD video mode with basic editing built-in, Efficient Active D-Lighting, Comprehensive customization options, Large, bright viewfinder with 100% coverage,
Tendency to overexpose in bright sunshine/high contrast situations, ISO button is poorly positioned, and cannot be assigned to any other control point, Ditto white balance: poorly positioned, cannot be re-assigned, Exposure mode dial slightly loose, and easily knocked, Shooting mode dial can be awkward to manipulate, AF can be hesitant in poor light, Auto ISO function is confusing and poorly i
Generally camera manufacturers tend to follow a well-defined update path and it's usually pretty clear which model is meant to be replaced by a new one. With the announcement of the D7000 Nikon has - to a degree - broken with this pattern. The new cam...
Wait until the price of the D7000 drops is the best advice we can currently tell you. At the moment is the similarly priced D300s still a big improvement if you intend to use it mainly as a DSLR. The D7000 only gains slight advantage if you shoot a l...

Like: The image quality is what we have come to expect, brilliant even up in the high ISO range. In some ways we regard this as a better camera than our more expensive D300. The Active DLighting really does help preserve the detail in shadows and highligh
Dislike: The D7000 only has a three exposure auto bracket which is mean compared with the nine exposure set of the D300. Presumably this is a firmware function that could be easily and cheaply changed
Excellent performance for its class; great viewfinder; control locations and operations streamlined over previous Nikon dSLRs; double SDXC-compatible card slots
No 1080/30p video
The D7000 offers an excellent shooting experience with a professional feel and features for not too much money at all....
Excellent image quality (including at high ISOs), excellent quality 1080p video mode, plenty of professional-level features
No histogram, exposure indicator or aperture adjustment during live view mode, some shooting controls are not laid out in an intuitive fashion
