Nikon D7000 Body Only 16.2 megapixel digital SLR camera

Seize the moment

Getting great photos should not rely purely on luck. The right equipment is a huge part of getting the best-looking photos every time. Consider the Nikon D7000 the right equipment. Packed with features like 16.2-megapixel shooting, a 2016 RG CMOS sensor, and loads of shooting options, youâ€™ll be prepared no matter what conditions you find yourself facing. Plus, twin SD card slots mean youâ€™ll have plenty of memory to either keep on shooting, or save your photos by their file type for better organization later.

A setting for every style

Easy to use, even for a relative novice, the D7000 also provides a slew of customizable and manual options for those who want more freedom. Starting with the User 1 and User 2 settings right on the mode selector dial, you can determine which combination of settings you use most often and save them for easy access later. Looking to be a little more artistic or a little more precise? Set your shutter speed, your exposure, your ISO, your focus, and your flash to capture the image as you want it seen. And when you want to shoot without having to think about all those settings, rely comfortably on the extensive selection of auto modes to get a great picture every time. Going beyond the standard, the D7000 even includes pet portrait, autumn colors, and food modes.

The excellence that is EXPEED

The result of Nikon's relentless pursuit of excellence and years of know-how, EXPEED image processing system delivers stunning images while maximizing camera performance. This version of EXPEED works in tandem with the 16.2-megapixel CMOS sensor to produce finely detailed images that exhibit superb color reproduction and rich tonal gradation with minimal noise. Moreover, fast processing makes short work of power-hungry tasks like high-speed continuous shooting, Live View shooting, and Active D-Lighting, providing fast handling that many digital SLRs lack.

Fast motion in two forms

You've got two options for capturing images quickly. You can use the high speed continuous shooting to capture 6 frames per second for up to 100 shots. Even the most fleeting of movements will come alive in a series of still images. Your other alternative is to record to your camera in full 1080p HD video. Record up to 20 minutes of video, and transfer it to your TV or computer via HDMI. Use the built-in monoaural microphone, or external stereo microphone to record audio. And if full 1080p is a little more than you were looking for, choose from four other video settings to get just the right resolution.

I got my first DSLR about a bit over 3 years ago as a Nikon D60. The D60 was a big upgrade for me over my Nikon P5100. I was looking for a more advanced camera and after some research decided to buy the D7000. It took a while to get the money together to buy it, but it was defiantly worth the wait. Everything just seems to run smoother and faster than the D60. I have a non CPU lens and that works much better too. I would not recommend this camera to a beginner, because it has a lot of features that may prove confusing, but if you are looking to upgrade from an entry level DSLR this is worth a look.
