- YES. It is! Nikon's 13 year-old DSLR camera is still a fantastic camera to have. The D7000 replaces the D90/D300 DSLRs and it was a pretty big leap ahead of both of those cameras in terms of the tech. If you own a D7000, comment below and let me know what you like/loved about it!

I own a D7000 and besides the dual SD Card slots and features, remember that anyone can own state of the art equipment but the true value is in the eye of the photographer.
That's debatable
I’m still using my D7000, coupled with 3 lenses and the SB-700 speedlight. For me, as a purely amateur photographer, it’s a great combination. I see no reason to change my setup any time soon.
Agreed! Thanks for sharing!
But with new technologies like bluetooth wifi etc, its just not so convenient to edit/upload pictures using phones. Apart from these d7000 is really great.
@@jitendraakb I was thinking the same, as I am used to my FUJI where I can easily connect to wifi and transfer photos to my phone. but I buy the D7000 anyway yesterday and it is in transit now :D
@@MasterT2 thats great, I am still using d7000 but world is moving faster and as an artist we need to spend nore time in learning the craft rather than worrying about transferring the pics to laptop!!! and moreover, newer cameras are very compact and lightweight and somehow it matters in the long run as a traveller!!!
If it works - why not?
I recently picked up a D7000 with a 18-200mm lens from a garage sale for $180 lol. Although the body and lens looked brand new I still had this feeling that there must be something wrong with either of these or both. When I brought it home and checked it’s shutter count I was surprised as it was only 1,100 something and both camera and lens work flawlessly.
Great find 😂😂😂
Daaang! Awesome find and purchase! Thanks for sharing!
Hi, how do you find the shutter count?
@@motojavs
Go to your Nikon camera settings and make the image to Basic and file size small and take a picture of an object.
Go to google and search ‘Nikon Camera shutter count’. Upload the image and you will going to get the shutter count of your Nikon DSLR.
Have a D90 and just bought a D7000 with an 18-200 Nikon lens. Finding your reviews very helpful.
Thanks! You have 2 solid Nikon DSLRs right there!
I still have and love to use my D7000. I’m using this with my speedlight flash, prime, wide and telephoto lenses. I’m sure there are other newer bodies that are better, but with this one being so good, even after 11 years, I really haven’t felt the need to upgrade it.
This and your other old Nikon camera reviews was SO, SO HELPFUL in deciding whether or not to sell my old Nikon lenses for cheap... or... if it was worth just keeping them and buying a cheap new, old-but-newer Nikon as an extra backup to my other cameras.
Glad it was helpful!
After watching your video I decided to take the plunge and get into photography. I went out and bought a D7000 on your recommendation and I’m so glad I did. I absolutely love this camera. Starting this hobby with this camera has been amazing. I have so many options. I know for a fact that this camera will never hold me back. Thank you for making this video. It changed my life.
Great to hear! I'm glad this video helped you. The D7000 is still such an amazing camera to this day. Enjoy! And again, thanks for sharing!
Just wonder are u still using this Nikon D7000 now? I just started for photography and thinking of getting this due to my budget. So is this really still that good? Thanks.
Loved that camera. Never failed me once. Always delivered great images. Some of my favorite images, actually, as I’ve been looking through my archived photos. Put some good glass on it, go out, and show up all the pixel peepers and gear heads out there who are focusing on the wrong things. Ansel Adams work is good for one reason. He was a good photographer with impeccable technique.
To make ISO selection more convenient than back panel button go to custom setting menu d3 and select "show ISO/easy ISO". This is much better as it allows you to change ISO with command dial and shows ISO in viewfinder instead of shot count.
That's a really good tip, thanks! I've always found the standard ISO button location to be a complete PITA. That and the LiveView limitations are the only features of the D7000 that I really dislike, otherwise I rate it highly for IQ and usability.
I set my iso to the custom button on the front of the body and use the up/down arrow to adjust. Will look into your set up.
I Love its inbuilt editing function as well as converting raw image to normal file system
I bought this camera just under a year ago now after watching this video and I'm stunned by what it can produce. I mainly focus on nature and wildlife, so I pair it a lot with my 300mm f4 AF-C and it's amazing.
Heard amazing things about the 300 F/4 lens. I used it once on a weekend during a drag racing event and it was phenomenal. May have to get that lens someday! Thanks for sharing and glad this video helped!
@@BoostLeekdMedia The only downsides with the older ones are the weight and lack of image stabilization. It can get tough on longer days. But I know there are newer versions with image stabilization I want to try.
and the video is Great! Thanks for talking about this oldie, but goodie!
Bought my D7000 in 2014 I’ve just upgraded to a Sony A7RV yesterday with the 24-70mm f2.8 GM2 lens. Trying to get back to photography after flying drones for so many yrs. 🥰
Bought the first one in 2012 AND Bought another when it broke down in 2021.. :) Love it...
Whoa, almost made it to 10 years! Good to know and thanks for sharing!
The only camera I have found to be a better value than the D7000 is the D7200. It basically improved all the areas I felt the D7000 was somehow short and added missing features like Wifi (as an example) ... But still love the D7000 as it is really a powerfull camera, and has outstanding controls and picture quality when paired with good glass (example the 70-300 VR FX) ... It is a pitty the newer D7500 removed the second SD slot, this is something very cool on the D7XXX family.
Heard many great things about the D7200 as well. Thanks for sharing!
As most shooters don’t do video, this camera is awesome till today. Just pair it with the Build-like-a-Tank-Nikkor 17-55mm/2.8 and you have all you need, a pro-level cam. Not to mention nikkor d prime lenses. 35mm/f2, 50mm/1.4, 85mm/1.4, you name it. Just a w e s o m e results. Thanks for the video
You're welcome! 100% agree with you on those lenses.
Hi, did you imply that for filmmaking this camera is not suitable? I am paving my way to content creation and I am looking for the most economic camera which can yield the same video quality as this video itself, you'd be more than kind to give me some options on body and lens 🙏🏼
I've had mine since 2013, the battery grip, and the 85mm 1.8 D and 50mm 1.4D are always my go to backups.
Nice!! Love the 50 1.4D on my D7000 as well.
Nikon d7000 has everything that each of us needs, even for professional use. If you know how to use a Nikon d7000 with good old lenses, you can easily compete with photographers who use the latest cameras. If we don't suffer from the complexities of having better equipment, certainly each of us can be extremely satisfied with the Nikon D7000. I also have newer, slightly better cameras. But I still like to use the Nikon d7000 often. Everything else is business. Thanks for your honesty.
Thank you and appreciate sharing your experiences with the D7000! Totally agree with you about understanding how to use the D7000 with the old lenses as well.
After my Nikon D5000 and D90, I bought the Nikon D7000 in 2014 and been using it until 2018 and it works perfectly well... But then I kept in my cabinet for quite some time now and just tried to test it again few weeks ago. I noticed that the LCD depreciated, it has a vignette around it and I wonder why... After doing some YouTubing, it is a known issue and now I had my LCD replacement and ready to work again with my Nikon D7000 along side with my DJI MIni 2... :) Thanks for the Video....
Good to know! Thanks for sharing.
I had my D7000 for many years. So far, I can take the pictures I want (portrait, sunset, silky waterfall, etc.) with a bit of setup and assessories like the ND filters, flashes, softbox, etc. If you go with the simple point and shoot mode (P mode which is mainly use for family travel), I find that the photos tend to be a bit under exposed. I try to look for a new camera body with newer features but want to continue to use my existing glasses so not easy to find. Simply upgrade to D7500 (which is not a new model) doesn't seem worth it.
Very nice! And thank you for sharing your experiences with your D7000.
Thank you for your reviews ,. They helped my search very much. Just ordered a refurbished d7000 (body only) for $187 on ebay. I will definitely check the lenses vid next. You are AWESOME sir
Very nice! Enjoy it and I'm glad this video helped. :D
Yes, sir, absolutely did. The camera came in the mail yesterday and the lens came in today. I'm about to go field test have a great day man
I just started using the D5000 for food photography, do you suggest for me to upgrade to the D7000? Or am I fine with the D5000. I don't use it for video at all. Only Food shots and once in a while shots of family. Thanks
I think it's a good upgrade, especially since you can use the other Nikon screw-type lenses, like the Nikon 60mm F/2.8D Macro lens, which is the lens I use for food photography.
Will this camera be enough for Automotive photography(not motorsports). Like car events, street spots etc. Also what lenses do you recommend for the same?
I took this camera and the Sigma 10-20 to Hot Import Nights. It's more than enough for lowlight situations if you know what you're doing. I wasn't afraid to use ISO1600-3200.
i'm in a group and someone was selling theirs. plotting out some video and stuff and generally wanted to know if it was worth jumping out some cash for. thanks a mil. this helps.
Good evening from Vietnam. I found your topic here and see it so interesting and useful.
I have D7000 7 years ago, the first camera of my dream since a child. I love it so much with its soft, gentle and romantic photo especially in early dawn pictures.
Can I use D7000 for making videos?
Nice! Thanks for sharing. You can create videos with the D7000. I remember watching video clips from film makers using the D7000 for their short films. It's a very capable camera for film if you know what you're doing :) Filming is just the start, telling a story through your recording is the next step! Again, thanks for sharing!
I feel that the D7000 was the first Nikon DSLR to have the 'modern look' to its images. Meaning good in low light, JPEG images that are good enough to print and the handing and features are still relevant. I still have mine and it continues to perform perfectly (even with Z7 in my bag too). I still suggest it to this day but prices have not dropped as low as some meaning it is still popular. Thank you for the video.
You're welcome and thanks for sharing your experiences with the D7000. I agree with you about it being the first Nikon DSLR to have that 'look' to it's images. It's definitely 'different' compared to my D300s.
I like the D7000, but I don't know that I like the "modern look" of the images as much and prefer the handling of the D700/D300 bodies. It does do well in low light for most people's needs and is a whole lot of camera for the money. Makes me think that I should drag it out and see how it does with a 300mm f/4 while shooting some local birds :)
I had to work 2 jobs for this Baby. Till this day this Camera is a Beast.
Hello, like you video and I do like my D7000. Was looking to upgrade my lens to either Tamron 16-300 or Tamron 18-400, Which would you suggest?
I just got the 18-200 but I would love the 18-400. That extra reach is amazing!
great camera! been using mine alot with live bands etc. nice video!
Nice review sir. I still have my NIKON D7000 with the kit lens on it. May i ask what is the best lens i can use for my outdoor activity like camping, hiking, trekking specially in low light condition. I would really love to know and appreciate your respone.
Depending on your photography style, I really liked using the Tokina 11-16 F/2.8 for hiking and low light conditions. I know photographers love using a wide range of lenses but the 11-16 is small and light compared to the higher end lenses, which definitely helps with the hike. Personally, I like the wide angle lenses for hiking.
@@BoostLeekdMedia Lovely Sir! Thank you so much for the expert advice. I'll look up for that lens. Appreciate much.
I own an D7000 but would like to record sports (Wakeboarding, Snowboarding) in 4K video and also photo-burst. What camera would you suggest to upgrade to, that allows me to keep my 5 lenses that I bought for the D7000?
My first camera that comes to mind is the Nikon Z50. I have the Z50 and it's excellent for video recording. Check out my Nikon Z50 review on my channel :D
I bought my D7000 in 2011, it gives me so much fun during all this years, I just bought a Z6 ii a year ago, but my D7000 will be my second body yet
Nice! Glad to know you still have yours. It definitely makes for an awesome 2nd body. Thanks for sharing!
Another feature that impresses me is how quiet the shutter is and that’s without it in quiet mode. Still an excellent camera in 2022.
Agreed!
Still rocking my D7000 to this day. No problems since 2012, when i bought it. And in my opinion still one of the best cameras for nighttime pictures. The weather sealing rounds it up for it to still be my go-to Aurora camera when i'm in norway or iceland with -20° to -30° C during the night waiting for the green magic to happen
Ohh! Thanks for the information, especially about how well it handles the cold weather. That's some CRAZY weather conditions. Mad props to you for getting out there in that weather with the D7000!
Just right now my dad gave me his D7000 and despite not knowing anything about it I fell for it
It's an amazing camera. Have a good time with it!
I just bought a d7000 (well used) for $150 at my local camera shop. Didn’t realize my af p lens didn’t work with it. If you have a secret to getting it to work, please let me know!
For af-p lens You have to get d7100.
Thank you for this, I just found one while renovating my office at home. I have always wanted to get into photography, so I think I might now. Just a quick edit as I am just starting out I have no idea about the lens that where with it, on is a 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6g and the other is a 55-300mm 1:4.5-5.6g are they any good? if not what lens should I grab? as I would like to get into Landscape photography as I live on the beach in a not so bad part of Australia :)
the 18-55 isn't bad. the 55-300 is a better version of the 55-200 lens. For landscape, I think the 55-300 is a good start, especially since it's a telephoto zoom lens.
Bought mine in 2012.. used to for combat sports photography. Hasn't been shooting well as of late. Definitely upgrading soon but keeping it as my 2nd camera
Dang! You've had yours for a while. Thanks for sharing!
It's my go to wildlife camera paired with Sigma 100-400 giving 600mm reach... good enough for BIF with its 6fps! If I need reach I use my back up Nikon 1 v2, with the Sigma getting over 1000mm and very usable iQ. Anything else for pixel peepers! Thanks!
Nice!! Good to know what you're photographing as well! And thanks for sharing!
I have one but the lens mount broke. The rest is great.
D7000 is still my working horse. With top range 17-55 and 70/80-200 lenses it rocks. The only concern is the shutter life they say.
Nice!
Had my D7000 from new - so far I'm on 130k shots and counting - my go-to lens is the 16-85mm though I do have several others [ no 17-55mm though ]
Considering buying a D7200 or a D810 - I was tempted by a D4s till I put one in my hands , wow that thing's heavy !
I still have mine. I picked it up today and took a few shots only to be disappointed that it's developed a vignette somehow, on all lenses and focal lengths.
ah, not sure what that'd be. Hopefully it's an easy remedy.
Just purchased Nikon D7000 with 2200 clicks in mint condition for $235 to replace my D300. I'm really looking forward to using this camera.Thanks for the great information
in your video
Enjoy it! It's a nice one!
ISO isn't in bad placement you can long press it and change ISO level through the wheel.
vow very informative about D7000, I haven't used much my D7000, I started my baby steps about knowing, which was very encouraging. I have a question, my corners of the screen are having shades, how can I get of the option of my screen having shades instead of having crystal clear screen. Appreciate your guidance !!
What lens are you using? The 'shades', also known as 'Vigenette' is probably what you're getting. It could be from the lens you're using. What lens are you using? It could also be the hood lens as well.
I hope this helps!
A little bit late to the party, but would you consider this camera viable as an option to shoot a typing test (i.e., a video of a keyboard being typed on)? I am not quite sure if my hands being in motion might mess with the focus, though they would remain in a relatively similar position throughout the video)? Anyways, great video! Just what I needed as I inherited this camera a few weeks ago and am relatively new to photography.
You're never too late :) I would say it's a great option for getting video footage. You will just have to make sure the camera is focusing on your hands. It's an excellent camera to learn with. I wish I started out with the D7000 :)
Any other affordable ones you recommend more? For around the same price range?
The only camera I would suggest that's "close" enough to the D7000 is the Nikon D300s and the D90. The D300s and D90 are pretty close to each other in terms of photo quality since both share the same Image sensor. You should be able to find the D90 for a much cheaper price than the D7000 but the D90 is older than the D7000.
Loved the sensor, hated the AF. If only Nikon did a better job on the AF, it would have been a keeper
Canon 200d mark ii vs canon 80d vs Nikon d7000
Out of the three which is the best for photography???
I'm interested in ordering a D7000 from KEH (which is why I'm review hopping). As far as a lens to go with it, I'm leaning towards something vintage, older glass. Any suggestions in that realm? Thank you.
Great choice! Hard to suggest a lens since I'm not sure what kind of photography you're into. Me, personally, I love the 35 F/2 and the 50 F/1.2 ais lens. I know the 55mm F/1.2 ai lens is cheaper but any of the vintage F/1.2 or F/1.4 and even the F/1.8 lenses are superb, especially if they're still in great shape.
@@BoostLeekdMedia Normally, macro photography and portraits are what I gravitate towards the most. I get by without a macro lens as I found some magnifying glass that screws onto my existing lens as a filter does (and work vastly better than extension tubes). I want to do portraits as a side hustle, and I know older glass tends to give optimal results. I just don't know enough about older lens' to be confident in making a purchase. Thank you for responding, and for the advice. I really appreciate it!
I still use it and I think is still a great camera.
Awesome! Glad you're still using your D7000. Thanks for sharing.
I'm a beginner in photography and i would love to buy D7000. Is it hard to learn it?
It's an EXCELLENT camera to begin and start out with. I wish it was my first camera I started with. Enjoy it! You don't need the latest and greatest to be the greatest photographer :)
Found a cheap mini hdmi to hdmi cable from a nice photographer and now my D7000 is a webcam! Combined with the HD60 and firmware 1.03 patched for a cleaner HDMI view it is really incredible! Then I can use my Tokina 11-16mm with a variable ND filter and so far everything is great!
Very nice! Thanks for sharing!!
I owned it since it costs a arm and a leg, I just found it after I got back into photography. I updated the firmware and now all the pictures I take look blurry, is it possible whilst upgrading it deletes all information about lenses?
If you have Autofocus fine tune, it could have. But updating firmware should not blur the images though.
How do you do wifi transfer on the D7000? My "wireless transmitter" setting in the menu is greyed out....? HOW do we transfer photos with new MACs and equipment that dont have the cord plug in anymore? Thank you!
You may need to get a card reader that connects to the MAC. I've transferred my images that way versus connecting it through the the camera.
what if i want to take pictures of Formula One cars? Would the picture be blurry when the cars go by? I have a Nikon D7000
As long as your shutter speed is higher than 1/1000, you should be good. There are SEVERAL factors as to why you would be getting blurry images;
- the lens you're using
- your settings
- your autofocus mode
- how far you are from the F1 cars
- what aperture you're on
- what shutter speed you're on
just to name a few factors that could result in blurry images. I hope this helps. I think if you're new, I would put the camera in Shutter Mode and make sure you're above or between 1/800 - 1/4000...this really depends on the lens you're using as well.
I loved my D7000. Paired with a 85mm f/1.8 I was able to get amazing headshots and portraits. Eventually I bought a D750 and decided to sell the 7k while I could still get a good price.
Great to hear!
I love my D7000. Got it from FB marketplace for a great deal.
I really love the duel card slots, I can shoot pictures for someone else at an event and then give them the card.
Nice!! Thanks for sharing!
How much the price do you get for d7000 second hand?
Thank you for that information! I use the D7000 over my D7500, it's easier to use and it has 2 SD Card slots!
Glad it was helpful!
I am looking to try and be a sports photographer do you think this is a good camera to start??
Pair it with a good performing zoom lens and it's an excellent camera to start out with. AF performance is pretty good, especially for it's age.
Many thanks for the info you provided. I am paving my way to content creation and I am looking for the most economic camera which can yield the same video quality as this video itself, you'd be more than kind to give me some options on body and lens 🙏🏼
Thanks. It depends on your budget. Hard to tell you what camera is good but if you're looking for a reliable Nikon camera that does video very well, the Nikon mirrorless cameras are VERY good at video compared to the Nikon DSLRs.
My D7000 has been awesome. For 10 years it has produced excellent results. Agility, Astro, food…
Yes, D7000 is still a great camera. for me it has a sentimental value as this was my 2nd camera and that is where I learn about photography the most.
Can I ask, can you shoot a professional music video with it?
@@dizastavina maybe but the quality is not good...
If I may ask. As a beginner is this camera good for a start?
@@abasaana3985 yeah...especially now that the price is down...
I still have a Nikon d7000, has been left for ages but still works, flash needs cleaning and does not pop up, but my sb700 speed light is not working, I have tied cleaning where the batteries go and it did come on with new batteries but then died! Any ideas what to do? Also is this camera ok for street photography? I have a nifty 50 1.8 fixed lens, a 70-300 and a 11-16m
Dang, the SB700 is probably not getting power. Good news is that those are pretty affordable now. I just recently got the SB700 for $110 at my local camera shop. It functions as it should. I wouldn't put money into fixing it though. Best thing to do is buy another one if you can, if not, there's definitely something 'off' inside the flash.
The D7000 is EXCELLENT for street photography. I brought mine to Chicago and with the 18-200 and it was a VERY fun combo. I can see why people like using the 18-200. I have the 10-20 for my wide angle and I guess it just depends on your style of photography. But the D7000 is an excellent choice for street photography, day and night. :) Have fun with it and I hope this helps.
I will be using my d7000 until I die are it dies...
What do you suggest for a beginner in photography and video for 400 to 500 dollars used or new
If you're planning on doing more video, the Sony A6000 series cameras are actually pretty good! I wouldn't get the latest and greatest Sony mirrorless but if you can find a used Sony A6000 for under $500, that's a good deal.
My favourite lens for my D7000 has to be the 16-85mm which can be sourced for around £150 in very good condition - not that different from the much more expensive version , the 16-80mm f2.8 and has slightly more reach .
I'm really considering that 16-85 as well. Thanks for the feed back and sharing your experiences with the D7000!
I have a nikon d3200 and want to get a d7000 to familiarise myself with the extra settings. Prices are good at the moment, up to £200 used for the d7000 in the UK.
the D7000 is definitely a solid camera. It'd compliment the D3200 very well. Plus, with the D7000, you can use older Nikon D lenses too...which, I've been seeing them slowly drop in price as well.
Hi nice review. Just got mine and excited to play around.
Hope you enjoy it!
There is one of these models listed for $300 that comes with s Tamron 17-50mm F/2.8 and some other things. I used to be in photography back in high school almost 30 years ago. Would this be s good pick up for me to start again?
That's an excellent deal, especially if the D7000 is still in great shape and the Tamron 17-50 lens is still in great condition. It's definitely still a solid camera to start out with.
@@BoostLeekdMedia good to know. Thank you.
I had a D7000 for years, while it is technicaly a great modern DX camera, I was never happy with its color rendition, especially skin tones, no matter what I did in pp.
I finally sold it in 2018 and bought a D700 and afterwards a D3S im still in love with untill today. These two older generation FX bodies are awesome, the only thing I miss sometimes is the dynamic range the D7000 gave me.
Nice!! You've got some amazing full frame camera bodies right there. Thanks for sharing!
I sent my D7000 to Nikon for repair. Prior to that I bought the Nikon Z5 entry level Mirrorless. Since they repaired my D70, I have seldom used my Z5. I think this D7000 will be around for a while as one of the better mid grade cameras Nikon has produced.
Nice! The D7000 is pretty tough!
Do u also recommend the 17-55 f2.8 lens as a daily lens? Thanks.
100% would recommend. Especially if you're new to photography as you will learn a lot more with it versus a prime lens, like the 50mm 1.8 lens.
Greetings ! Thanks for the video ! I have one and the image quality went down - it has a tendency to go to high ISO and not focus well not even when taking photos. Do you have any idea why ? Thanks
There are a few factors; lighting conditions, the lens you are using, and having the ISO at AUTO-ISO. If you are trying to take photos in a VERY low light environment, it will have trouble with autofocus, and this goes for ANY camera as the camera will need a light source to focus onto the subject.
And when you are taking photos in VERY low light situations, the D7000 will raise the ISO to compensate for the low light environment.
Is this professional camara?
I would consider it a "professional" camera. Really up to the user to really get the best images from it as the camera can only do so much without the user ;)
I am still using my D7000 18-200 mm. Just serviced it and going excellent.
Very nice!
Can I buy this in 2022?
@@mkg1037 Yes, depends on price you are getting. The newer once have better features, but for my use D7000 is more than enough.
Lucky number 7. I have many of the Nikon range but I like my trio of D70,D700,D7000 - every base is covered between them - CCD, FX/DX, Remote control, lightweight, cheap etc. All will use the same lenses (apart from no metering on manual D70 and DX on FX). I've got a camera for every occasion, being arty, covering a show, portraits, getting wet - whatever.
Thanks for sharing! Totally agree with you about the 7's
Ive never had a full frame dslr, just bought the d7000 used for $150. I think it will be fine for that price.
The D7000 is crop sensor and the D700 is full frame. Either way, both are amazing!
I have a D3300 planning to selling it and getting a used D7000, do you think this is a good idea?
It depends what kind of photography you plan on doing. The D7000 can use more lens than the D3300 and I do like the controls on the D7000 versus the D3300.
Clarification about the live view changing setting.. I'm using the D7000 and you can change the settings for the live preview so you can see the changes to it not a problem at all
Just wondering how you did that with your D7000 because seeing the changes to my settings in manual mode would be excellent without guessing all the time when changing my shutter speed, ISO and aperture. Thanks!
I love my D7000 also have d200 D40 and D70 converted for IR. The 7000 rocks but only ok for video. The D200 is a heavy larger camera but it. Is very close to the 7000 in PIc Quality
100% agreed. It's crazy how good the D200 is. In daylight, it'd be hard to tell what camera you used. The D7000's lowlight performance is where it really gets the upperhand.
My best camera nikon D7000 with during ten years And I want to buy another i loved this is camera ✌💕✌
Great to hear! Thanks for sharing :)
I have d7000 with only 1 lens, afd 50 mm 1.8.. any recomendation lens?
Depends on your style of photography, so it's hard to recommend. If you want a wide lens, check out the Sigma 10-20. Did a review of it here: ruclips.net/video/-nIgo2r9xqw/видео.html
I still have mine ... but using it very seldom ...
What would you recommend more the Nikon d300 or d7000?
Oh! Both are insanely good cameras. I would still recommend the D7000 IF you can find one for under $120 or less. It really depends on your budget, but if you don't have a budget, the D7000 is what I'd recommend.
I went from a D5100 to D7000. I’m glad I did.
Heard a few photographers on this path as well. I definitely prefer the D7000 over the D5100.
Please I need your assistance on red square that appear on live stream, can you help me to remove it from it when am using OBS
Sorry, I have never tried the D7000 for live stream. Hopefully someone can help.
I have both the d3100 and d7000, which one is better for cinematography and photography?
I would say the D7000 but it really depends on how good you are with photography and cinematography.
@@BoostLeekdMedia thanks so much!!
I bought a D7000 new in 2013 after the price dropped after the D7100 was introduced and I still use it in 2024 with Nikon lenses from 1960's pre AI (converted to AI) , AI , AIS , screw drive AF and a 70-300 VR AFS , it has excellent image quality , I would not replace it with a D7500 (due to the lower build quality ) but a D7100 may be a good replacement if ever needed.
Nice! I really need to get my hands on the AI and AiS lenses. Thank you for sharing!
Would this be good for a youtuber or live streamer?
Not for live streaming but for RUclips videos, the D7000 will be okay, especially if it's your only camera.
@@BoostLeekdMedia I wouldn’t be able to hook it up to my PC easily and use it as a camera for streaming?
@@hazeysgarden You can but I think you will need to use 3rd party programs for that to work. I have never done it but it looks like others have done it. I don't know how effective the autofocus is during the live stream, so that's the only concern i would have if i did use the D7000 as a live streaming camera.
I've had mine now for 5 years. My second camera and I still love it!
its wierd, suddenly whenever i change the settings on my d7000, it does show the changes of the shutter speed and ISO live. this suddenly just started happening, it also wont let me change my aperture in live view
any ideas whats happening?
This camera is good for wildlife photography or not?what your suggestion.
I think it is. Especially if you need that extra reach, the D7000 can still produce some amazing images if you have a decent telephoto lens attached to it.
the D7000 is like a niche, vintage car that is not expensive, but still managed to put out decent, interesting looking photos. I love this camera, i would say that this machine really tested out the skills of the photographer. If you want something with more kicks, go 7200, maybe even 7500, but then you would realize that D7000 wouldn't be very far behind.
Totally agree! Thank you for sharing! Totally agree about that vintage car comparison :D
Hello I saw this one on sale for 400usd, it it worth it for this price or too much?
Depending on the condition it's in, it really depends. If it is just the camera body, I do not think it's worth $400 for just the camera body alone. If it comes with lenses and more accessories, maybe.
Raw files out of the D7000 are better than the D7100 and D7200 for pushing and pulling exposures too. When pushing exposure, in the shadow regions the D7000 does not show banding, the D7100 does (badly in shadows), and the D7200 will as well (just not as bad as the D71000). It has the best sensor for noise and banding control until you get into the D500/D7500 cameras.
Whoa, that is interesting. Thanks for sharing!
What is the advantage of reducing the AF points from 39 to 11?
Not sure. Only reason why I used it was for faster single-point focusing during some situations. Could be someone's personal preferences as well.
Can you please help me to use my d7000,i own this camera but i dont have any noledge to use it,can u ppss help me
Best advice is do you use it in auto mode. I know it is extremely overwhelming but take it DAY by DAY. Don't rush the process! I've been there before and the camera can be SUPER overwhelming but take it day by day and you'll get the hang of it. Bring the camera with you wherever you can take pictures and use it as much as you can. Get yourself really familiar with how the camera handles. I hope this helps.
You need to get a Sigma 17 50 2.8. Probably the best of its class. Even beat Nikon's version. The only one better is the brighter and more popular Sigma 18 to 35 1.8. A lot sharper, but no optical stabilizer and a lot more expensive even used.
I have the Tamron 17-50 but heard MANY great things about the SIgma version. I need to get my hands on that Sigma 17-50.
The Sigma 18-35 F/1.8 has been on my list to buy but I haven't seen any locally. A friend has the 18-35 1.8 on his Sony camera and the images/videos he gets from it are amazing.
Any camera is good if you put in a quality lens.
100,000% I try to tell folks this but it is very hard for the new photographers to understand since they most likely don't know their style of photography yet.
i have the D7500 and the only thing I wish it had are the double card slots! and since they are in the same line well I ger it why people do not sell them, I do not want to sell mine!
People are jumping into the mirrorless system. Unfortunately, while the mirrorless cameras do have some interesting tech, it's really up to the user to get the photos. I'm still waiting on a good deal for the D7500. Heard many great things about that camera.
I bought mine new in 2019 and have over 52k pics and is good, it should go to 150k (that is what nikon says) so will be keeping this one for a while
