to go wherever your photography or cinematography takes you. Experience
stunning images with sharp resolution and smooth tonal gradation, thanks to
the 16-megapixel DX-format CMOS image sensor and a powerful EXPEED 2 image
processing engine. Take advantage of its wide ISO range of 100 to 6400
(expandable to 25,600) and its incredibly low levels of noise. Expect your
images tack-sharp and accurately exposed, thanks to the camera’s 39-point AF
and Scene Recognition System using a 2,016-pixel RGB matrix metering sensor.
And with an approx. 0.052-second release time lag and approx. 6 frames-per-
second shooting, you won’t miss a moment. You’ll see exactly what you’re
capturing with the approx. 100% frame coverage viewfinder, and for those who
want to shoot both stills and movies, the D7000’s D-Movie capabilities now
include Full HD 1080p capture with full-time autofocus and manual exposure.
All of this advanced imaging technology is kept safe beneath the magnesium
alloy covering the top and rear chassis of a compact body, whose sealing has
been severely tested against moisture and dust. The D7000 is ready to shoot
indoors and out, and at 150,000 cycles tested, the camera’s durable shutter
unit helps you keep shooting. Combine all this with the unmatched NIKKOR lens
lineup and Creative Lighting System and you have everything you need to
explore your imagination to its fullest. Where can creative freedom like this
take you? Find out, with the D7000. D7000 Highlights Stunning image details:
16.2 effective megapixels Whether you want to make large prints or crop
tightly in an image, the D7000 delivers the resolution you need. At its heart
is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally
engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. Coupled
with 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable), the D7000 produces stunning
images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX
format. The A/D conversion happens within the sensor, thereby maintaining
exceptional image integrity without sacrificing shooting speed or energy
efficiency. Combine these with the agile DX format and its signature 1.5x
focal length telephoto potential and you can begin to see where this kind of
shooting power can take you. Improved image quality and speed: EXPEED 2 image
processing engine Sometimes you want to capture the subtle tones of a sunset.
Other times you want to freeze the action. The D7000 delivers both, thanks to
the newest generation of image processing engine, EXPEED 2, which performs
multiple tasks with more speed and power. Expect smoother tonal gradations,
even in difficult shadows and highlights, for a greater sense of depth in your
images. Shoot continuously at 6 frames per second so you can capture the
action you’ve been missing. Focusing performance such as face recognition in
Live View mode is also further improved, letting you concentrate on your
composition. Standard ISO 100 to 6400, expandable to ISO 25600 equivalent With
improved pixel quality of the image sensor comes a wider ISO range from the
DX-format — ISO 100 to 6400 has now become standard with the D7000, enabling
you to handle a wider range of lighting situations: from the bright and sunny
outdoors to low-lit evenings and interiors. Nikon’s renowned noise reduction
technology has been upgraded even further. Throughout the range, the D7000
delivers sharp images with minimized color noise. And thanks to the higher
processing speed, even when High ISO noise reduction is activated, you can
keep shooting continuously without stress. Quality high-ISO performance can
also enhance a lot for movie shooting, allowing you to capture the mood of a
scene using only available light. Capture Full HD 1080p D-Movie with full-time
autofocus and manual exposure The D7000 welcomes in a new era of movie
capture: Full HD 1080p and movie editing functions for exceptional cinematic
reproduction and quality. In addition to smooth-moving images, the camera can
compensate for distortion and other image-degrading problems. Besides auto
exposure mode, the D7000 offers manual exposure mode, which locks in the
exposure value when shooting scenes with varying contrast levels, such as when
panning from a bright window to a dark interior. Aside from a built-in
monaural microphone, the D7000 incorporates an external microphone jack for
high-quality stereo sound recording options. Improved quality in highlight and
shadow: Active D-Lighting Nikon’s exclusive Active D-Lighting offers the
ability to preserve details in the highlights and shadowy areas of images shot
in high-contrast scenes. Whether you’re dealing with bright skies and a dark
foreground or deep shadows where you can’t use a flash, the EXPEED 2 image
processing engine renders those scenes with smoother tones — even at its
highest settings. Simply select Auto in Active D-Lighting mode and the camera
can adjust to the scene’s contrast levels or bracket them into three frames of
varying strength levels. Even when Active D-Lighting is activated, you can
still maintain the continuous shooting rate. Now even more precise: The Scene
Recognition System The D7000 incorporates a built-in exposure-metering sensor
with a far larger pixel count than any other D-SLR camera before it. The
2,016-pixel RGB sensor reads the scene’s brightness and colors more
accurately, and then applies this reading to optimize not only exposure, but
also autofocus, white balance and i-TTL flash calculations — all in mere
milliseconds prior to the actual exposure. With more pixels, the D7000 can
recognize even smaller subjects — both moving and stationary. The newly
improved Scene Recognition System delivers better photographs in every way.
Wide-area coverage, powerful 39-point AF The D7000’s strategically positioned
39 AF points cover a significantly wide area of the frame, giving you flexible
compositional possibilities. The nine AF points in the center utilize powerful
cross-type sensors — especially useful when you need tack-sharp focus such as
with portraits and macro work. And unlike other manufacturers’ systems, the
D7000’s nine cross-type sensors work with all AF NIKKOR lenses f/5.6 or
faster. The D7000 offers a variety of AF area modes, including dynamic-area AF
using 9, 21, 39 points. Switch between the three, depending on the
predictability of your subjects’ movement, and the selected AF point and
surrounding points will track your intended subject automatically. There is
also 3D tracking, which continuously follows moving subjects within the 39 AF
points, indicating the activated AF point in the viewfinder. Utilizing Nikon’s
Scene Recognition System, Auto-area AF properly judges the main subject within
39 AF points and focuses on it. Therefore, no matter what the situation or
composition calls for, the D7000’s autofocus system will be ready to meet your
focus needs. 39-point AF & 2,016-pixel RGB sensor Stay focused on what matters
most. Sophisticated AE with highlight analysis After the incredibly accurate
2016-pixel RGB sensor reads a scene’s lighting information such as brightness
and colors, the D7000 cross-references what it sees with imaging data from
30,000 real-world shooting situations. This way, the renowned 3D Color Matrix
Metering II delivers exposure results that are faithful to how you see light
and shadow interplay, even in difficult lighting situations. This intelligent
metering technique also delivers exceptionally accurate i-TTL flash exposures,
and it all happens within milliseconds for both speed and precision. Informed
auto white balance (AWB) Based on its massive collection of shooting data
compiled from various light sources, the D7000’s intelligent AWB algorithm
renders white as truly white — even when shot under a wide range of light
sources, including the difficult mercury vapor lighting. The D7000 also
carries another AWB mode that maintains incandescent warmth in your images.
Contrast AF for live view and D-Movie Live View and D-Movie users can rejoice,
because with the D7000, face-priority AF is now faster and more powerful than
ever. Up to 35 people can be. For moving subjects such as pets, subject-
tracking AF keeps them in focus. Normal-area AF is recommended for pinpoint
focus and wide-area AF for handheld shooting. All are effective both for Live
View shooting and movie recording. 6 Frames Per Second Shooting up to 100
Images Say farewell to missed opportunities. The D7000 incorporates a new
driving mechanism to conduct its remarkably fast and precise mirror movements,
giving you an approx. 0.052 second release time lag and an approx. 0.13 second
start-up time. What’s more, you can continuously shoot at approx. 6 frames per
second at both 14-bit and 12-bit A/D conversion for RAW shooting. Rugged and
protected: compact magnesium alloy body and sealing against dust and moisture
With a top and rear cover of durable magnesium alloy, the D7000 is ready for
the outdoors. Nikon engineers paid meticulous attention to where exterior
parts join by employing durable sealing against moisture and dust. The compact
body has also undergone severe environmental tests to prove its rugged
reliability. Approx. 100% frame coverage viewfinder With approximately 100%
frame coverage in the viewfinder, what you see is what you exactly capture.
The specially coated glass pentagonal prism and precision-crafted finder
screen offer not only a bright viewfinder image, but also enable you to easily
confirm when a subject is in focus. Precision and durability: 150,000 cycles
tested shutter unit The D7000 has a shutter speed range of 1/8000 to 30
seconds, with a top flash synchronization speed of 1/250 second. And just like
with professional models, the shutter unit is tested for 150,000 cycles in
severe conditions, proving precision and durability. Intuitive operation:
strategically located dials, buttons and switches Each and every control on
the D7000 has been strategically placed for streamlined operation. The
exposure mode dial and release mode dial are stacked on the same axis for
easier access. Two new user settings can be assigned to the exposure mode
dial. The release mode dial now offers a quiet shutter release mode for near-
silent operation and one-touch Live View and movie recording are now possible,
thanks to a newly designed switch and button structure. 921k-dots, 170-degree
viewing angle, 3-inch LCD monitor The D7000 features an expansive 3-inch VGA
LCD monitor with reinforced glass. Its approx. 921k-dot resolution assures
clear, detailed display of images, which proves invaluable when confirming
focus or assessing image sharpness. The wide 170° viewing angle and bright
display make it easy to review images or confirm menu settings when shooting
outdoors. Electronic Virtual Horizon Especially useful for landscape shooting,
the virtual horizon indicated in the LCD lets you know when the camera is
level. The virtual horizon can also be displayed during Live View shooting.
Twin SD card slots (cards not included) Two memory card slots offer a number
of advantages: sequential recording; recording the same images simultaneously
on two cards; recording RAW and JPEG separately onto two different cards; and
duplicating images from one card to another. It’s also possible to designate a
specific card with more memory for use at the time of movie recording.
Intelligent power management After carefully scrutinizing every aspect of the
camera’s circuitry, Nikon engineers have designed the D7000 for maximum
performance with minimized power usage. With the newly designed Rechargeable
Li-ion Battery EN-EL15, 1,050 frames can be taken on a single charge. With
EN-EL15, based on CIPA standards. Nikon Creative Lighting System The D7000 has
a built-in pop-up flash that covers a 16mm lens perspective without
vignetting. The flash is fully compatible with the Nikon Creative Lighting
System (CLS) and delivers well-balanced flash exposures thanks to the
innovative i-TTL flash control. The built-in flash also offers Commander mode
to trigger remote flash units when using Advanced Wireless Lighting. The dual
advantages for i-TTL technology and wireless capability make sophisticated
remote flash control simple and inspiring. One simple remote flash from the
side using the SB-900, SB-700 or SB-600 creates more texture, dimension and
mood in ways that available light cannot. For more sophisticated creative
effects, the small and intelligent SB-700 has been designed to make the
control of remote multiple flashes even easier. Picture Control: Portrait You
can transform the look of an image simply by selecting from the camera’s
Picture Control menu. Choose from the following settings: Standard, Neutral,
Vivid, Monochrome, Landscape, and Portrait. You can even adjust parameters
such as sharpness and saturation and then save them as Custom Picture
Controls. Optional Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-D11 The dedicated battery pack
MB-D11 ensures longer battery power. You can expect more than 2,010 shots.
The MB-D11 is equipped with a shutter release button, command dials and a
multi-selector useful for vertical composition shooting. It also provides
better camera balance when a long telephoto lens is used. With two EN-EL15
