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
Good detail capture
Easy to use
Good features
Great new AF system (with right lens)
Excellent image quality (including at high ISOs)
Excellent quality 1080p video mode
Plenty of professional-level features
Excellent performance for its class
Great viewfinder
Control locations and operations streamlined over previous Nikon dSLRs
Double SDXC-compatible card slots

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
Abstract: To change AF area mode you hold the button within the AF/MF switch and use the front command dial, whereas using the dial at the rear will control the AF mode itself. The 2016-pixel metering system...
Line in for a mic, Toggle switch for video, Two SD card slots
Average amounts of detail in video, Manual zoom, No 50i mode, and no 25p Full HD, No headphone jack
With a 18-105 mm lens on board, the D7000 is a real treat to use. But unfortunately, the video it produces just can't compete with the likes of the Panasonic GH2. It's a real shame as it's a great camera otherwise ......
Dual SD/SDHC/SDXC card slots; Great low-light/high-ISO performance; Very good image and video quality; Autofocus in video and Live View modes
Function and bracket buttons difficult to access; Full-time autofocus in video mode needs work; New Nikon users will face a learning curve
If you're ready to get serious about your photography, the Nikon D7000 is well equipped to help you transition to the next level. It has a sophisticated feature set, top-notch performance, and highly pleasing image quality. Expect a challenging learning c...
The D7000 is an outstanding release by Nikon. This camera is a real treat for the enthusiast photographer but can work equally well as a back up body for professionals. You do have to master its features to get the best out of it though – refining th...
Great build quality, 100% viewfinder, Excellent control of electronic noise up to 3200 ISO, Burst mode reaches 6 fps and autofocus is fast, Stabilised kit lens a real allrounder, Wireless control over external flash
Video mode not quite up there and autofocus could still be faster, Normal quality JPEGs lack a bit of oomph, Fixed LCD screen, No headphone output to listen back to sound, Capture NX2 software sold separately but the best way to enjoy RAW photos
Nikon's D7000 is a real achievement and the quality of the images it produces will win over any photographer, as will the build quality of the camera itself and its high-end features. Filmmakers, on the other hand, might still be left wanting more....
This device is not just about taking pictures however; there's a degree of creativity involved at the review stage. We get the usual comprehensive array of in-camera retouching options here, plus the now de rigeur smattering of digital effects filters for...
The Nikon D7000 combines good usability and handling with excellent image quality in addition to a versatile ISO range. If you’re looking to buy a digital SLR but want a camera that’s more versatile than the current crop of entry-level offerings, we t...
