subject: Nikon D7000 Review: Features And Drawbacks [print this page] The Nikon D7000 is a digital camera which you can use for capturing professional looking photos and even stills. Its an easy to use camera that has various functions and elements that make the camera a highly handy to take great pictures.
This camera comes with an EXPEED processor, a 921K dot 3 inch LCD device and can easily capture movies in high definition. In addition to this, this 16.2 megapixel camera also has a rechargeable battery and an 18-105 mm VR lens.
This camera is the perfect camera for you if you are looking for a camera that has impressive image resolution for stills as the camera easily captures images in a maximum resolution of 4928p x 3264p. Moreover, the camera offers a maximum of 5.8X optical zoom and a .94X magnification optical lens that come with a pentaprism glass.
This camera also offers 100% view and frame coverage while the device is equipped with a 35mm equivalent lens focal length. Other features of the camera worth mentioning are its face detection offerings, camera burst mode, optical image stabilizing options and compatibility with a wide range of memory cards that can be used for storing files.
The camera also has text overlay options, an external flash mount, superior shutter speeds, a USB PC interface and an integrated movie mode. It also has an expandable ISO setting that can reach 6400 or higher. Its also possible to capture movies with accompanying audio and for storing movies and stills in various file formats.
The Nikon D7000 comes with an integrated and highly sensitive CMOS sensor, a mount for using a tripod, if necessary and image stabilization features that help reduce any camera shake related issues that arise if you take pictures by hand.
The cameras exterior is easy to grip, is black and its buttons and dials are easy to maneuver. Moreover, you can use the camera to take as many as 6 frames a second, and capture as many as 100 shots while using the continuous shooting mode of the device, so if you we recommend it because it has very intuitive features, its the perfect solution. The camera has many features that give you a chance to create perfect and creative videos and stills.
Moreover, the camera is enclosed by a solid and strong magnesium alloy casing that prolongs the use and longevity of the camera. To top it all, the cameras ultra-compact design makes it the portable camera suited for almost all occasions.
One of the downsides that I could mention is weight and the placement of the ISO button because it should have been placed near the aperture and shutter speed dials to have more confort during a session.
If you are going to use this camera in Auto Mode it would be a complete waste I personally recommend it for more experienced users to get the most advantage out of it.
