The Nikon D7000

Some of the best digital cameras ever made are on the market right now; choosing the right one can be an overwhelming task, to say the least. Every aspect of the camera needs to be examined in order to find the perfect one for you. Here’s a detailed explanation of one the latest models released by Nikon, the D7000.

The Nikon D7000 is an advanced version of the esteemed D90 model. The D90 was one of the first SLR digital cameras that had video recording capacity and was the first of its kind to have a high resolution LCD screen of 3.0 inches. In terms of its external appearance, the Nikon D7000 is akin to the D90 model; its weight, size and a lot of the layout is similar. However the D7000 has adopted the weather proof construction of magnesium alloy that the D300S has.

It is not intended to replace the D90 though and so has numerous different features. The CMOS sensor of 16.2 megapixels is a new feature and is suggestive of a continuing rise for DLSR cameras in megapixel count. The standard 1.5x magnification is present with the APS-C sized sensor.

The Nikon D7000 boasts a useful 6 frames per second, great for those who enjoy snapping lots of photos continuously. When compared with other cameras offering in this respect, such as the Canon 60D’s 5.3 frames per second and Nikon D300′s 7 frames per second, the D7000 model is a good investment for those who want resolution and speed as well as all round high functioning. The best digital cameras need to perform well in all of these areas.

Coupled with the processing engine called Expeed 2, this model also has the newest hardware for lightening fast processing as well as the capacity to increase the already impressive ISO 100-6400 sensitivity to a remarkable Hi2 setting, comparable to ISO 25,600.

As well as its impressive capabilities in terms of still images, the Nikon D7000 offers High Definition video with 24 frames per second; this is a lot more than can be said for some of this model’s competitors.

At the rear of the D7000, the LCD display is 3 inches wide and 920k dot. The viewfinder above the LCD screen has a 100% field of viewing, so that you can capture precisely what you see in front of you. For storage on this model, there are two SD slots which can both be used at once if you wish, or they can be programmed to be used in overflow or video/stills format.

Other features include the RGB metering module of 2016 pixels as well as the new AF system of 39 points which has nine sensors, dubbed using the Multi CAM 4800Dx.

In relation to other digital cameras available at the moment, this is an impressive new model by Nikon. It has a lot of great new features combined with some of the old favourites.
