The D7000 is a powerful and feature-packed DSLR which once again illustrates Nikon's canny ability to satisfy the desires of both gadget fanatics and traditional photographers. Unlike some rivals which appear to concentrate on the latest must-have technologies, Nikon never loses sight of what traditional photographers want. So along with 1080p movies, a microphone input, dual memory card slots and autofocusing while filming, the D7000 also features faster continuous shooting, greater viewfinder coverage, more sophisticated metering, and above average construction for its class. There's something for everyone here.
In theory this makes the D7000 one of the most powerful mid-range DSLRs on the market, and one which in some respects even treads on the toes of semi-pro models, including Nikon's own D300s. It is however important to note the D7000 is also one of the most expensive mid-range DSLRs around. Nikon's clearly applied its previous strategy for the D90 here, offering a step-up in features and performance for a slightly higher asking price.
