 Features Explained
 

Image quality

Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor [NEW]

At the heart of the D7000 is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. With 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable) operating within the sensor, the D7000 realizes stunning images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format without sacrificing shooting speed or energy efficiency. Combine these with the agility of the 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.

 

New image-processing engine "EXPEED 2"

The D7000 employs the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2". This achieves higher-performance noise reduction, improved color reproduction, high-speed image processing and enhanced movie-processing performance and efficient energy saving with a smaller engine chip than that of the D90. And there is no reduction in continuous shooting frame rate even when high ISO noise reduction or Active D-Lighting is activated.

Wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 6400

The ISO sensitivity range of the D7000 is wide, from ISO 100 to 6400 at normal setting, and it can be raised up to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent). It delivers sharp images with minimized noise while maintaining resolution even at high ISO setting. The D7000 lets you select a faster shutter speed and expands creative possibilities in lowlight situations and sports scenes without worrying about image-degrading noise.

Speed/Accuracy

Scene Recognition System utilizing 2,016-pixel RGB sensor and image sensor [NEW]

Scene Recognition System precisely reads the situation of the subject before shooting and delivers highly accurate auto control. It utilizes a newly developed 2,016-pixel RGB sensor to analyze brightness and color information of a scene and applies this to autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash control and auto white balance for accurate control. Also, the D7000 detects up to 35 human faces utilizing image sensor when using face-priority AF during Live View and movie recording, and playback zoom of people's faces of still images.

AF system featuring 39 high-density focus points [NEW]

The D7000 incorporates Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus sensor module. It detects and tracks the subject precisely with 39 focus points. Nine cross-type sensors cover the most frequently used center area to deliver higher subject-acquisition and focusing performance. There are selectable AF area modes according to the scene - single-point AF, dynamic-area AF (9 points, 21 points and 39 points), 3D-tracking and auto-area AF. You can also choose to shoot with 11 focus points. With Scene Recognition System that recognizes more detailed information utilizing finer-segment 2,016-pixel RGB sensor, the D7000 shows higher subject-tracking and subject-identification performance.

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 39 points

Selectable AF-area modes

-Single-point AF mode

Ideal for stationary subjects. Camera focuses on the subject at a selected focus point only.

 
Single-point AF mode

-Dynamic-area AF mode

Suitable for capturing moving subjects. If the subject briefly leaves the selected focus point, the camera will focus based on information from surrounding points.

9 points: Suitable for when there is time to compose the photograph or for subjects that are moving predictably
21 points: Suitable for a randomly and unpredictably moving subject
39 points: Suitable for a fast-moving and predictably moving subject

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 21 points

-3D-tracking mode

Pursues your subject using all 39 focus points. Once focusing is achieved with a selected focus point, the focus point automatically changes to track the subject according to its movement while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

 
3D-tracking mode

-Auto-area AF mode

The D7000 detects the main subject using all 39 focus points and automatically focuses on it. With a G- or D-type AF NIKKOR lens, the D7000 can distinguish foreground and background using "subject identification" of Scene Recognition System and detects a person's position by recognizing human skin tone for improved subject acquisition.

 
Auto-area AF mode

Note: Only the selected focus point is shown on actual images. Also, if you select focus points in a peripheral area of an image when [9 points] or [21 points] is chosen, the number of focus points actually used may be less than 9 or 21.

Auto exposure control

The 2,016-pixel RGB sensor detects highlights within a frame precisely. It calculates optimal exposure to deliver more accurate auto exposure control and i-TTL flash control.

Auto white balance

The D7000's intelligent auto white balance algorithm renders white as truly white even when shot under a wide range of light sources, including mercury vapor light. The D7000 analyzes color and brightness information of the scene before shooting utilizing Scene Recognition System, and detects the light source highly accurately by referencing its massive collection of in-camera shooting data. The D7000 also carries another auto white balance mode that maintains warm lighting ambience when you shoot under incandescent light.

Feature Explained
 

Image quality

Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor [NEW]

At the heart of the D7000 is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. With 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable) operating within the sensor, the D7000 realizes stunning images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format without sacrificing shooting speed or energy efficiency. Combine these with the agility of the 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.

 

New image-processing engine "EXPEED 2"

The D7000 employs the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2". This achieves higher-performance noise reduction, improved color reproduction, high-speed image processing and enhanced movie-processing performance and efficient energy saving with a smaller engine chip than that of the D90. And there is no reduction in continuous shooting frame rate even when high ISO noise reduction or Active D-Lighting is activated.

 

Wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 6400

The ISO sensitivity range of the D7000 is wide, from ISO 100 to 6400 at normal setting, and it can be raised up to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent). It delivers sharp images with minimized noise while maintaining resolution even at high ISO setting. The D7000 lets you select a faster shutter speed and expands creative possibilities in lowlight situations and sports scenes without worrying about image-degrading noise.

Active D-Lighting with refined image processing

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 such as those that are backlit. ADL levels are selectable from "Auto", "Extra high", "High", "Normal", "Low" and "Off". The D7000 employs a new image-processing system that produces less color phase shift even when the ADL level is increased. Furthermore, it realizes high-speed, real-time processing with high accuracy within image-processing pipelines. The D7000 also allows you to bracket for up to 3 frames.

Speed/Accuracy

Scene Recognition System utilizing 2,016-pixel RGB sensor and image sensor [NEW]

Scene Recognition System precisely reads the situation of the subject before shooting and delivers highly accurate auto control. It utilizes a newly developed 2,016-pixel RGB sensor to analyze brightness and color information of a scene and applies this to autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash control and auto white balance for accurate control. Also, the D7000 detects up to 35 human faces utilizing image sensor when using face-priority AF during Live View and movie recording, and playback zoom of people's faces of still images.

AF system featuring 39 high-density focus points [NEW]

The D7000 incorporates Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus sensor module. It detects and tracks the subject precisely with 39 focus points. Nine cross-type sensors cover the most frequently used center area to deliver higher subject-acquisition and focusing performance. There are selectable AF area modes according to the scene - single-point AF, dynamic-area AF (9 points, 21 points and 39 points), 3D-tracking and auto-area AF. You can also choose to shoot with 11 focus points. With Scene Recognition System that recognizes more detailed information utilizing finer-segment 2,016-pixel RGB sensor, the D7000 shows higher subject-tracking and subject-identification performance.

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 39 points

Selectable AF-area modes

-Single-point AF mode

Ideal for stationary subjects. Camera focuses on the subject at a selected focus point only.

 
Single-point AF mode

-Dynamic-area AF mode

Suitable for capturing moving subjects. If the subject briefly leaves the selected focus point, the camera will focus based on information from surrounding points.

9 points: Suitable for when there is time to compose the photograph or for subjects that are moving predictably
21 points: Suitable for a randomly and unpredictably moving subject
39 points: Suitable for a fast-moving and predictably moving subject

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 21 points

-3D-tracking mode

Pursues your subject using all 39 focus points. Once focusing is achieved with a selected focus point, the focus point automatically changes to track the subject according to its movement while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

 
3D-tracking mode

-Auto-area AF mode

The D7000 detects the main subject using all 39 focus points and automatically focuses on it. With a G- or D-type AF NIKKOR lens, the D7000 can distinguish foreground and background using "subject identification" of Scene Recognition System and detects a person's position by recognizing human skin tone for improved subject acquisition.

 
Auto-area AF mode

Note: Only the selected focus point is shown on actual images. Also, if you select focus points in a peripheral area of an image when [9 points] or [21 points] is chosen, the number of focus points actually used may be less than 9 or 21.

Auto exposure control

The 2,016-pixel RGB sensor detects highlights within a frame precisely. It calculates optimal exposure to deliver more accurate auto exposure control and i-TTL flash control.

Auto white balance

The D7000's intelligent auto white balance algorithm renders white as truly white even when shot under a wide range of light sources, including mercury vapor light. The D7000 analyzes color and brightness information of the scene before shooting utilizing Scene Recognition System, and detects the light source highly accurately by referencing its massive collection of in-camera shooting data. The D7000 also carries another auto white balance mode that maintains warm lighting ambience when you shoot under incandescent light.

D-Movie

Full HD movie-recording function: D-Movie with enhanced operability and image quality

The D7000 offers high-image-quality full HD movie recording of 1,920 x 1,080/24p. You can shoot creative and beautiful movies taking advantage of shallow depth of field and a variety of interchangeable NIKKOR lenses. As with Live View, contrast-detect AF is possible. And if you set full-time-servo AF (AF-F) for AF servo mode and subject-tracking AF for AF-area mode, AF area tracks even a moving subject continuously and three-dimensionally.

  • More information about AF

External stereo microphone compatible

During movie shooting, the D7000 lets you record not only monaural sound with the built-in microphone, but also stereo recording using an optional external microphone. You can also select the sensitivity level for either the built-in or external microphone, choosing from auto, high, medium or low. Select low for scenes in louder environments, such as a concert hall; high for quieter environments, with more delicate sounds, such as a murmuring stream. An external microphone also allows you distance it from any sound generated by the camera such as lens movement during autofocus shooting, or VR operation when the VR function is activated.

 

In-camera movie editing functions

Easy in-camera movie editing is possible without a PC. You can delete unwanted parts by choosing the start or end point by frame, and save a selected frame as a JPEG image.

Feature Explained

Image quality

Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor [NEW]

At the heart of the D7000 is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. With 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable) operating within the sensor, the D7000 realizes stunning images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format without sacrificing shooting speed or energy efficiency. Combine these with the agility of the 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.

New image-processing engine "EXPEED 2"

The D7000 employs the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2". This achieves higher-performance noise reduction, improved color reproduction, high-speed image processing and enhanced movie-processing performance and efficient energy saving with a smaller engine chip than that of the D90. And there is no reduction in continuous shooting frame rate even when high ISO noise reduction or Active D-Lighting is activated.

 

Wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 6400

The ISO sensitivity range of the D7000 is wide, from ISO 100 to 6400 at normal setting, and it can be raised up to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent). It delivers sharp images with minimized noise while maintaining resolution even at high ISO setting. The D7000 lets you select a faster shutter speed and expands creative possibilities in lowlight situations and sports scenes without worrying about image-degrading noise.

Speed/Accuracy

Scene Recognition System utilizing 2,016-pixel RGB sensor and image sensor [NEW]

Scene Recognition System precisely reads the situation of the subject before shooting and delivers highly accurate auto control. It utilizes a newly developed 2,016-pixel RGB sensor to analyze brightness and color information of a scene and applies this to autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash control and auto white balance for accurate control. Also, the D7000 detects up to 35 human faces utilizing image sensor when using face-priority AF during Live View and movie recording, and playback zoom of people's faces of still images.

 

AF system featuring 39 high-density focus points [NEW]

The D7000 incorporates Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus sensor module. It detects and tracks the subject precisely with 39 focus points. Nine cross-type sensors cover the most frequently used center area to deliver higher subject-acquisition and focusing performance. There are selectable AF area modes according to the scene - single-point AF, dynamic-area AF (9 points, 21 points and 39 points), 3D-tracking and auto-area AF. You can also choose to shoot with 11 focus points. With Scene Recognition System that recognizes more detailed information utilizing finer-segment 2,016-pixel RGB sensor, the D7000 shows higher subject-tracking and subject-identification performance.

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 39 points

Selectable AF-area modes

-Single-point AF mode

Ideal for stationary subjects. Camera focuses on the subject at a selected focus point only.

 
Single-point AF mode
 

-Dynamic-area AF mode

Suitable for capturing moving subjects. If the subject briefly leaves the selected focus point, the camera will focus based on information from surrounding points.

9 points: Suitable for when there is time to compose the photograph or for subjects that are moving predictably
21 points: Suitable for a randomly and unpredictably moving subject
39 points: Suitable for a fast-moving and predictably moving subject

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 21 points

-3D-tracking mode

Pursues your subject using all 39 focus points. Once focusing is achieved with a selected focus point, the focus point automatically changes to track the subject according to its movement while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

 
3D-tracking mode

-Auto-area AF mode

The D7000 detects the main subject using all 39 focus points and automatically focuses on it. With a G- or D-type AF NIKKOR lens, the D7000 can distinguish foreground and background using "subject identification" of Scene Recognition System and detects a person's position by recognizing human skin tone for improved subject acquisition.

 
Auto-area AF mode

Note: Only the selected focus point is shown on actual images. Also, if you select focus points in a peripheral area of an image when [9 points] or [21 points] is chosen, the number of focus points actually used may be less than 9 or 21.

Auto exposure control

The 2,016-pixel RGB sensor detects highlights within a frame precisely. It calculates optimal exposure to deliver more accurate auto exposure control and i-TTL flash control.

Auto white balance

The D7000's intelligent auto white balance algorithm renders white as truly white even when shot under a wide range of light sources, including mercury vapor light. The D7000 analyzes color and brightness information of the scene before shooting utilizing Scene Recognition System, and detects the light source highly accurately by referencing its massive collection of in-camera shooting data. The D7000 also carries another auto white balance mode that maintains warm lighting ambience when you shoot under incandescent light.

Image quality

Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor [NEW]

At the heart of the D7000 is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. With 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable) operating within the sensor, the D7000 realizes stunning images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format without sacrificing shooting speed or energy efficiency. Combine these with the agility of the 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.

 

New image-processing engine "EXPEED 2"

The D7000 employs the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2". This achieves higher-performance noise reduction, improved color reproduction, high-speed image processing and enhanced movie-processing performance and efficient energy saving with a smaller engine chip than that of the D90. And there is no reduction in continuous shooting frame rate even when high ISO noise reduction or Active D-Lighting is activated.

Wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 6400

The ISO sensitivity range of the D7000 is wide, from ISO 100 to 6400 at normal setting, and it can be raised up to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent). It delivers sharp images with minimized noise while maintaining resolution even at high ISO setting. The D7000 lets you select a faster shutter speed and expands creative possibilities in lowlight situations and sports scenes without worrying about image-degrading noise.

Active D-Lighting with refined image processing

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 such as those that are backlit. ADL levels are selectable from "Auto", "Extra high", "High", "Normal", "Low" and "Off". The D7000 employs a new image-processing system that produces less color phase shift even when the ADL level is increased. Furthermore, it realizes high-speed, real-time processing with high accuracy within image-processing pipelines. The D7000 also allows you to bracket for up to 3 frames.

Speed/Accuracy

Scene Recognition System utilizing 2,016-pixel RGB sensor and image sensor [NEW]

Scene Recognition System precisely reads the situation of the subject before shooting and delivers highly accurate auto control. It utilizes a newly developed 2,016-pixel RGB sensor to analyze brightness and color information of a scene and applies this to autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash control and auto white balance for accurate control. Also, the D7000 detects up to 35 human faces utilizing image sensor when using face-priority AF during Live View and movie recording, and playback zoom of people's faces of still images.

 

AF system featuring 39 high-density focus points [NEW]

The D7000 incorporates Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus sensor module. It detects and tracks the subject precisely with 39 focus points. Nine cross-type sensors cover the most frequently used center area to deliver higher subject-acquisition and focusing performance. There are selectable AF area modes according to the scene - single-point AF, dynamic-area AF (9 points, 21 points and 39 points), 3D-tracking and auto-area AF. You can also choose to shoot with 11 focus points. With Scene Recognition System that recognizes more detailed information utilizing finer-segment 2,016-pixel RGB sensor, the D7000 shows higher subject-tracking and subject-identification performance.

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 39 points

Selectable AF-area modes

-Single-point AF mode

Ideal for stationary subjects. Camera focuses on the subject at a selected focus point only.

 
Single-point AF mode

-Dynamic-area AF mode

Suitable for capturing moving subjects. If the subject briefly leaves the selected focus point, the camera will focus based on information from surrounding points.

9 points: Suitable for when there is time to compose the photograph or for subjects that are moving predictably
21 points: Suitable for a randomly and unpredictably moving subject
39 points: Suitable for a fast-moving and predictably moving subject

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 21 points

-3D-tracking mode

Pursues your subject using all 39 focus points. Once focusing is achieved with a selected focus point, the focus point automatically changes to track the subject according to its movement while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

 
3D-tracking mode

-Auto-area AF mode

The D7000 detects the main subject using all 39 focus points and automatically focuses on it. With a G- or D-type AF NIKKOR lens, the D7000 can distinguish foreground and background using "subject identification" of Scene Recognition System and detects a person's position by recognizing human skin tone for improved subject acquisition.

 
Auto-area AF mode

Note: Only the selected focus point is shown on actual images. Also, if you select focus points in a peripheral area of an image when [9 points] or [21 points] is chosen, the number of focus points actually used may be less than 9 or 21.

Auto exposure control

The 2,016-pixel RGB sensor detects highlights within a frame precisely. It calculates optimal exposure to deliver more accurate auto exposure control and i-TTL flash control.

Auto white balance

The D7000's intelligent auto white balance algorithm renders white as truly white even when shot under a wide range of light sources, including mercury vapor light. The D7000 analyzes color and brightness information of the scene before shooting utilizing Scene Recognition System, and detects the light source highly accurately by referencing its massive collection of in-camera shooting data. The D7000 also carries another auto white balance mode that maintains warm lighting ambience when you shoot under incandescent light.

Keep warm lighting colors

Viewfinder employing glass pentaprism with approx. 100% frame coverage and approx. 0.94x* high-magnification

With approximately 100% frame coverage in the viewfinder, you see what the D7000's image sensor sees. The specially coated glass pentagonal prism offers not only a bright viewfinder image, but it also enables you to easily confirm a subject.

High-speed continuous shooting at approx. 6 fps, for up to approx. 100 shots captures the decisive moment

The D7000 incorporates newly developed shutter, aperture and mirror driving mechanisms. Combining with higher image-processing speed, high-speed continuous shooting at approx. 6 fps*, for up to approx. 100 shots** is achieved. Start-up time is only approx. 0.13 s*** and release time lag is approx. 0.052 s***. All this gives you stress-free, comfortable shooting, helping you to capture the decisive moment.

  • *Average frame rate with an EN-EL15 battery, continuous-servo AF, manual or shutter-priority auto exposure, a shutter speed of 1/250 s or faster, other settings at default values, and memory remaining in memory buffer.

Shutter unit tested 150,000 cycles

The D7000 has a shutter speed range of 1/8,000 to 30 s, with a top flash synchronization speed of 1/250 s. And just like with the D300S, the shutter unit is tested for 150,000 cycles tested in severe conditions to prove precision and durability.

Quiet shutter-release mode

You can reduce the sound of mirror-up and mirror-down during shooting by selecting "Q" on the release mode dial. This improved quiet shutter-release mode is a convenient function for scenes such as a school play or when shooting wildlife insects and sleeping child.

Lower energy consumption and newly developed Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL15 [NEW]

The D7000 achieves excellent low power consumption by adopting the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2" and newly developed driving mechanisms. The Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL15 (supplied) allows you to shoot up to approx. 1,050 shots* per charge.

  • *Based on CIPA Standards.

Mode dial with improved usability

You can set frequently used options, for example, Picture Control, exposure compensation, etc. on user setting modes "U1" and "U2" on the mode dial, coaxially located with the release mode dial. Nineteen options of scene modes, such as silhouette, high key and low key that are selectable by setting the mode dial to SCENE, enable you to shoot more easily.

Selectable scene modes:

Silhouette
High key
Low key

Easier-to-use Live View

The D7000 offers smooth switching from regular shooting to Live View shooting with the dedicated Live View switch. Large, easy-to-view 7.5 cm (3-in.) VGA wide-viewing-angle (170), approx. 921k-dot TFT LCD monitor with reinforced glass realizes comfortable Live View shooting. The D7000 also allows contrast-detect AF. By selecting AF-F (full-time-servo AF), the camera automatically tracks the subject continuously even if it moves during Live View shooting. There are selectable AF-area modes according to the subject; face-priority AF, wide-area AF, normal-area AF and subject-tracking AF.

Virtual Horizon

You can display Virtual Horizon that enables instant confirmation of your camera's position relative to horizontal level. During Live View, the virtual horizon is superimposed on the monitor image. Also, a virtual horizon indicator is displayed in the viewfinder to show horizontal inclination of the camera.

Suitable for a moving subject. AF is activated and tracks the subject continuously, immediately after Live View or movie recording starts without pressing the shutter-release button halfway.

Note: Manual focusing is also available during Live View or movie recording.

AF-area modes during Live View/movie recording

 
Face-priority AF
 
Suitable for focusing on a human face such as for a commemorative photo. Up to 35 faces can be detected. When multiple faces are detected, the camera will focus on the subject recognized to be the closest. Alternatively, you can also choose a different subject with the multi selector.
 
 
Wide-area AF
Suitable for hand-held shooting such as landscape. AF area can be moved to the desired position within a frame.
 
 
Normal-area AF
Suitable for tripod shooting with pin-point focus such as close up. AF area can be moved to the desired position within a frame.
 
 
Subject-tracking AF
Suitable for a moving subject. After focusing is achieved with the OK button, AF area tracks the subject's movement.

Extensive playback functions and information display

Variety of playback functions

The D7000 gives you a variety of playback display options that take advantage of the large 7.5 cm (3-in.) monitor. The number of images displayed at any one time can be selected from 1, 4, 9 and 72, and calendar display arranges images in chronological order. You can also display a histogram of a magnified area of an image and check the focus using playback zoom of face.

Nikon Integrated Dust Reduction System that includes Image Sensor Cleaning function

The D7000 employs Nikon's Integrated Dust Reduction System, which includes the Image Sensor Cleaning function that vibrates the optical low-pass filter with four different resonant frequencies to reduce dust. It prevents unwanted spots from appearing on your images. This function can be set to operate automatically when the camera is turned on or off, or to manual.

Image Sensor Cleaning

D-Movie

Full HD movie-recording function: D-Movie with enhanced operability and image quality

The D7000 offers high-image-quality full HD movie recording of 1,920 x 1,080/24p. You can shoot creative and beautiful movies taking advantage of shallow depth of field and a variety of interchangeable NIKKOR lenses. As with Live View, contrast-detect AF is possible. And if you set full-time-servo AF (AF-F) for AF servo mode and subject-tracking AF for AF-area mode, AF area tracks even a moving subject continuously and three-dimensionally.

  • More information about AF

External stereo microphone compatible

During movie shooting, the D7000 lets you record not only monaural sound with the built-in microphone, but also stereo recording using an optional external microphone. You can also select the sensitivity level for either the built-in or external microphone, choosing from auto, high, medium or low. Select low for scenes in louder environments, such as a concert hall; high for quieter environments, with more delicate sounds, such as a murmuring stream. An external microphone also allows you distance it from any sound generated by the camera such as lens movement during autofocus shooting, or VR operation when the VR function is activated.

In-camera movie editing functions

Easy in-camera movie editing is possible without a PC. You can delete unwanted parts by choosing the start or end point by frame, and save a selected frame as a JPEG image.

Feature Explained

Image quality

Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor [NEW]

At the heart of the D7000 is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. With 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable) operating within the sensor, the D7000 realizes stunning images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format without sacrificing shooting speed or energy efficiency. Combine these with the agility of the 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.

 

New image-processing engine "EXPEED 2"

The D7000 employs the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2". This achieves higher-performance noise reduction, improved color reproduction, high-speed image processing and enhanced movie-processing performance and efficient energy saving with a smaller engine chip than that of the D90. And there is no reduction in continuous shooting frame rate even when high ISO noise reduction or Active D-Lighting is activated.

 

Wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 6400

The ISO sensitivity range of the D7000 is wide, from ISO 100 to 6400 at normal setting, and it can be raised up to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent). It delivers sharp images with minimized noise while maintaining resolution even at high ISO setting. The D7000 lets you select a faster shutter speed and expands creative possibilities in lowlight situations and sports scenes without worrying about image-degrading noise.

Speed/Accuracy

Scene Recognition System utilizing 2,016-pixel RGB sensor and image sensor [NEW]

Scene Recognition System precisely reads the situation of the subject before shooting and delivers highly accurate auto control. It utilizes a newly developed 2,016-pixel RGB sensor to analyze brightness and color information of a scene and applies this to autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash control and auto white balance for accurate control. Also, the D7000 detects up to 35 human faces utilizing image sensor when using face-priority AF during Live View and movie recording, and playback zoom of people's faces of still images.

AF system featuring 39 high-density focus points [NEW]

The D7000 incorporates Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus sensor module. It detects and tracks the subject precisely with 39 focus points. Nine cross-type sensors cover the most frequently used center area to deliver higher subject-acquisition and focusing performance. There are selectable AF area modes according to the scene - single-point AF, dynamic-area AF (9 points, 21 points and 39 points), 3D-tracking and auto-area AF. You can also choose to shoot with 11 focus points. With Scene Recognition System that recognizes more detailed information utilizing finer-segment 2,016-pixel RGB sensor, the D7000 shows higher subject-tracking and subject-identification performance.

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 39 points

Selectable AF-area modes

-Single-point AF mode

Ideal for stationary subjects. Camera focuses on the subject at a selected focus point only.

 
Single-point AF mode

-Dynamic-area AF mode

Suitable for capturing moving subjects. If the subject briefly leaves the selected focus point, the camera will focus based on information from surrounding points.

9 points: Suitable for when there is time to compose the photograph or for subjects that are moving predictably
21 points: Suitable for a randomly and unpredictably moving subject
39 points: Suitable for a fast-moving and predictably moving subject

 
Dynamic-area AF mode: 21 points

-3D-tracking mode

Pursues your subject using all 39 focus points. Once focusing is achieved with a selected focus point, the focus point automatically changes to track the subject according to its movement while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

 
 
3D-tracking mode

-Auto-area AF mode

The D7000 detects the main subject using all 39 focus points and automatically focuses on it. With a G- or D-type AF NIKKOR lens, the D7000 can distinguish foreground and background using "subject identification" of Scene Recognition System and detects a person's position by recognizing human skin tone for improved subject acquisition.

 
Auto-area AF mode

Note: Only the selected focus point is shown on actual images. Also, if you select focus points in a peripheral area of an image when [9 points] or [21 points] is chosen, the number of focus points actually used may be less than 9 or 21.

Auto exposure control

The 2,016-pixel RGB sensor detects highlights within a frame precisely. It calculates optimal exposure to deliver more accurate auto exposure control and i-TTL flash control.

 

Auto white balance

The D7000's intelligent auto white balance algorithm renders white as truly white even when shot under a wide range of light sources, including mercury vapor light. The D7000 analyzes color and brightness information of the scene before shooting utilizing Scene Recognition System, and detects the light source highly accurately by referencing its massive collection of in-camera shooting data. The D7000 also carries another auto white balance mode that maintains warm lighting ambience when you shoot under incandescent light.

P7203
 
The Acer P7203 professional projector employs advanced technologies and convenient setup utilities to deliver clear, persuasive presentations in large business venues. Enterprising innovators like you will appreciate this projector's high resolution, brightness and contrast ratio for helping to drive your ventures toward greater success. What's more, the USB slideshow feature enables PC-less projection of photos using the built-in USB multimedia readers, for added convenience.
 
Precise display
Advanced Acer ColorBoost II+ uses powerful image processing and advanced lamp illumination technology to present vivid graphics and enhanced details. XGA resolution depicts sharp details even for fine print and allows you to select the level of display detail required for your particular usage scenario. 5000 ANSI lumens brightness and a 3200:1 contrast ratio project crystal clear, vibrant images from a long distance on a large screen. Plus, Acer ColorSafe guarantees consistent image quality despite prolonged use.
 
Empowering usability
The Empowering Key provides easy access to the useful suite of Acer Empowering Technology tools. Acer SmartFormat technology offers complete multi-format support for instant projection of wide-format content, without complicated resolution settings. The wall-color compensation feature means the projector can display colors accurately even when the image is projected on a colored wall. And, with Acer Instant Pack technology, you can safely unplug the power cord right after the P7203 is turned off -- you don't have to wait till it cools down, so you can pack up and go immediately.
 
Convenient setup and connectivity
The P7203 complies with the Crestron Network System for convenient projector control over LAN or Wi-Fi. You can also take advantage of the Remote Desktop feature to access content from any PC that's connected to the projector via LAN or Wi-Fi and has launched the Acer eProjection utility. In addition, dual-HDMI and DVI with HDCP support offer digital connectivity for high-definition viewing, while a mini USB port is available for connecting to displays via a USB cable.
 
Earth-caring functionality
Acer EcoProjection technology cuts standby power consumption to a single watt for environment-friendly energy management. Up to 2500 hours of lamp life saves lamp replacement costs and ensures long-term, dependable projector use; ECO mode extends lamp lifespan and reduces noise and power consumption. With the Auto-ECO feature, the projector automatically enters ECO mode if there is no signal input for 5 minutes, resulting in up to 20% further reduction of power consumption.
