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

The editors didn't like
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
LCD screen not articulated
Needs faster lens to get the best shots
NX2 software lacking in control
No histogram
Exposure indicator or aperture adjustment during live view mode
Some shooting controls are not laid out in an intuitive fashion
The Nikon D7000 is a powerhouse camera at a very reasonable price. Priced at about $1199 for the body and $1499 for the body and kit lens, It is by no means cheap, but it offers value for money. It includes a huge range of features that will make shoo...
Great quality across its sensitivity range, Viewfinder with 100% coverage and VGA screen, 6fps continuous shooting at all quality settings, Dual memory card slots, 1080p video with AF, manual control and mic input.
Continuous buffer limited in depth, Metering frequently over-exposed in bright conditions, Continuous movie AF indiscreet in use, Back-focusing error on our sample kit.
Like its predecessor, the Nikon D7000 raises the bar of what can be expected from a mid-range DSLR. There's no arguing with its impressive feature-set nor Nikon's canny ability to satisfy the demands of both new technology fanatics and traditional pho...

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
An excellent dSLR for experienced shooters or Nikon professionals looking for a relatively cheap option, the Nikon D7000 delivers on almost all counts, including the company's best shooting design to date.
Fantastic AF system, excellent picture quality, great battery life
A little expensive, screen could be higher resolution, kit lens doesn’t show camera’s full potential
The D7000 is an absolutely exceptional DSLR that, although categorised under Nikon's ‘consumer' bracket, offers a lot of pro-like specification. There's a lot out there to compete with, not least that Canon's 7D can be found for a few hundred pounds mo...
The Nikon D7000 is a successful crossbreed of the cheaper D90 and the more expensive D300s, borrowing features from each model and adding enough new highlights to surpass them both in many ways. Just like the Canon EOS 60D, the Nikon D7000 has been ca...
Abstract: The Nikon D7000 is Nikon's newest DSLR, aimed right between the and the crowd. Pending actual receipt of a shipping production sample for confirmation, this Nikon D7000 just replaced both the and with superior performance. The D700...
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...

Solid all-round performance and some surprisingly upmarket features at a competitive price make for a truly excellent mid-range DSLR...
