For those looking for a Nikon fix but don't want to throw in a lot of cash for the higher models, the Nikon D7000 might be the perfect balance between price and performance.
With logically placed controls and a superior viewfinder system, the design seems to be really built around the idea of maximizing the 16.2 megapixel engine. Heck, it even has 24fps 1080p HD video capability. And to handle that, it has two SDXC-compatible memory card slots, which can be configured to work as backups, data overflow catchers, or even to have each card have different file formats for one photo. And while some would say that a 9-point autofocus system is enough, Nikon goes for gold with a 39-point mode?
Really, the only bad thing about the D7000 is that it does not have the full 1080/30p video mode. While the prices may vary, you
probably somewhere along P50,000 to give this DSLR the proper flash
and lens treatment, complete with camera bag and filters. And yes, we're not talking about light sensitivity and speed,
simply because this DSLR can handle that as a matter of course - just like many Nikon products, the D7000 is at the
very least reliable, and at its best, they are game-changers in the field.
