Questions & Answers

Sherie N : I need a wide angle lens that will fit both the nikon d3100 and the nikon d7000?GARY F : Tokina has some nice lenses for DX cameras and they wont break the bank. I own the 11-16 DX II and I love it.DWIGHT D : I have had good luck with Sigma 10-20 mm lens for Nikon. Will work on both cameras. Be sure you get with USA warranty. Lens cost around $400.
robert d : Is this camera new or refurbished?ROBERT G : This model is most likely new. That is, it hasn't been used and refurbished. BUT, it is OLD technology. It may be worth your while to get it as a bargain. Be aware that the 7100 has a number of features lacking in the 7000. 7100 has 24 megapixel files as compared to 16 on the 7000. The 7100 can do 5 bracketed shots --- 7000 only 3. 7100 has a 2x telephoto rather than 1.5 if you use 16 megapixel images. it shoots 7fps at that setting. I don't remember any other differences offhand.DWIGHT D : Looks like this new. This is a very good camera and it is still in production. A few upgrades are available on the D7100.ROBERT B : NewROSS B : Mine was a refurb. It has worked flawlessly, BTW I bought "body only" no lens. I have a bunch of Nikon lensesFRANK K : newNOEL W : I bought the camera new. Pre-ordered. Excellent camera.
Larry W : I AM A RETIRED PHOTOGRAPHER AND WOULD LIKE TO UPGRADE MY GEAR. I WANT TO COMPARE THE D7000 AND THE D3200 CAMERA AND WHICH THE LENS TO USE? I AM LOOKING AT THE 18-200. I AM STILL DOING SOME FAMILY WEDDINGS AND STUDIO PORTRAITS ETC. CAN YOU GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS?BRIAN O : Both are very capable cameras. I have the D7000, which I like because it places more control at your fingertips, while the D3200 is more menu driven. If you like shooting in manual mode, the front and rear command dials on the D7000. The D7000 is also backwards compatible with a tremendous number of Nikon lenses, which could be an advantage. The D3200 does not have the autofocus motor, so you'd need to use newer (AFS, G lenses) The D7000 also has excellent high ISO capabilities, which could be an advantage for you when you don't want to use flash. Dual SD card slots are also a nice perk. Pros for the 3200 would be it's compact size, and the higher megapixel sensor. It's not quite as good for low light candid stuff, but in controlled situations where you're shooting from a tripod (for landscapes/studio work) the resolution is a meaningful upgrade. This is the best Nikon DX body for landscapes. I don't have much to say on the 18-200. It is a compromise lens that covers a wide range. Great if you don't want to change lenses, but it's not going to outperform specialized lenses. You might consider getting an external flash with it, because with the lens fully extended you will probably get nasty shadows when using the built-in flash. The newer Nikon f/1.8 primes (28/35/50/85) would be a great pairing with either camera. The 50mm in particular would work well on a DX body for wedding stuff. Hope this helps. Really can't go wrong with either model.MICKIEL S : If you are doing weddings, I would defiantly choose the D7000 over the 3200, for one reason, it has two dials to allow you to switch setting much faster, plus has two preset settings. To some peoples amazement, I would take a D90 over the 3200 due to this reason (two dials), even though the sensor in the 3200 is the same as the 7000. For Studio portraits the 18-200 is great for a multi use lens if the subject is not just sitting on a chair (for a never changing quantity I would use a prime lens) - I do model shoots w/ an 18-200 and love it, great versatility. For weddings, the problem w/ 18-200 is the f5.6 at 200mm. This is where the low light sensor of the 7000/3200 will help. When doing weddings, I always take prime lenses (35mm and or 50mm) as well as my 18-200 and my 80-200 f2.8. For low light settings, the 3200 will out perform the 90.LEROY C : I was a commercial wedding photographer also for 4 years, many years ago while I was in college. I own the D7000 (since Dec 2010), and the Nikon 18-105 lens. My view on the camera and the lens is follows: The 18-105 is a good walk around lens, and for the money is an excellent lens in this price range. I assume you use CS5 or similar. The slight CS and distortion can be handled in that soft ware. Stopping down just one stop over minimum gives very sharp pictures. This lens is my pick for a vacation lens. It does do good on portraits I do carry a fast primary Nikon 35mm F1.8 lens for low light, night shots - it is not that expensive. The D7000 is slightly better than the D3200 in a number of respects. There are very few faults with this camera, and has enormous options in the menu. It has a slight tendency to over expose in beach scenes. Using the scenes menu offers excellent results, automatically setting the camera up for the situation. I do not take video with my D7000. In dim light with this lens, it does hesitate in focusing. My take on the 18-200: it is ok until you zoom past about 100MM or so. It gets a bit soft the the tele end, but not too bad. Now for weddings (I still take a few): This lens is too slow in a wedding reception to allow fast handling in low light, with accurate focusing. I recommend you pick a similar range lens with a constant F2.8 speed- yeah they cost more. Really an 18 to 70MM would suit one for weddings. I use a Sigma 18 to 50 MM F2.8 for weddings with good results. One really needs at least two lens. For wild life, I use the Nikon 70-300 - it is reasonably priced, and does a good job. Best of luck in your upgrade.FRANK K : I own a D7000, it is an okay camera, it gets dusty on the ccd and slowly, no hardly wears off, (I use the clean the ccd every time I turn it on feature) had to have it cleaned by Nikon, also it does not have a PC connection, you have to use a hot shoe for external flash. Nikon guy told me that it is not really a professional camera. I don't know anything about the D3200. On the 18 - 105, be careful about using the wide angle with people in a group, it makes the people on the outside ends look even wider. The 18 - 135 did the same thing (sold it) I have been using the camera for a year and will use it until I have enough money to upgrade. I hope this helps you with your decision.EDUARDO V : The D3200 is an entry level Dslr, the D7000 is the top of the line of the almost pro models. There is a big difference between the two. I strongly recomend the D7000 I think you will not be dissapointed. The 18-200 is the better lens, much better than the 18-105. I hope you will enjoy your D7000,CHRISTOPHER T : I upgraded to the d7000 from a D40 which I assume the d3200 is on that same level. The performance you get from the D7000 is so much better and you have so much more control over the output from the camera. I have the 18-105 kit lens which performs well in decent lighting conditions but does not give great blur or bikes you want often times in portraits. The 18-200 will perform much the same. Good at the ends of the zoom range and just ok in the middle. I would almost get a nicer lense for the 3200 and upgrade te body later. Either way I'm very happy with my camera. Just be ware of the rumors of the D600. Same price range just full frame!!!ANDREW F : Don't get the kit. I have 2-D300s and I love the D7000. I find the D7000 just as sharp and capable as the D300s. I use the D7000 mostly for underwater photography and the resolution and image quality is magnificent! I do not recommend the kit as I prefer higher end lenses and I found the 18-105 lacking. For an inexpensive lens, I really like the Sigma 17-70. This lens is ridiculously sharp, fast and it has macro capabilities. The 18-200 is great, I have one, but I prefer the handling of the 17-70. Hope this helps.MARGUERITE B : I think you would be better served to get a 2.8 fixed aperture, rather than a 3.5-5.6 lens, especially as you are doing weddings, which usually don't have the best lighting. So a 70-200, 2.8 lens is a much better purchase than the kit lens. I have no experience with the D3200, but do very much like the 7000, which shoots excellent video in addition to fine stills. Hope that helps a little bit!

Nikon D7000 body in 2024

Bought "heavily used grade" D7000 Nikon body and was surprised how nice camera is. 44,000 accuations, one small chip next to battery door (non issue), and one small button not working on front for focusing areas. Also a non-issue mostly. Nice cameras with a solid feel and long battery life. Recommend for sure.

Awesome DSLR

Awesome camera. Amazingly tough, built like a tank. Once I put my camera over a black leather coat in the sit of my car and forgot. Later I took the coat and did not see the camera. It flew away in a concrete surface. Nothing happend, even a scratch. The battery last forever. My battery is shown as new in the battery info menu and I have been used it since 2014. I like the images and colors it produces and have taken magnificent portrait of my kids. I only avoid to use high ISOs, in this case noise is noticeable.

Máquina robusta, ótima qualidade de fotos, com excelentes recursos

Pontos positivos: Entendendo dos recursos a máquina permite um uso praticamente profissional. Excelente para entusiastas que querem uma máquina com recursos, mas não necessariamente profissional. Durabilidade da bateria excelente. A existência de dois slots para discos é excelente (uso um para arquivos RAW e outro para jpeg). pontos fracos: Já quis fazer ampliações em que os 16megapixel não permitiram. Com 24 megapixel seria o ideal (embora para isso existe a 7100). Por conta do corpo de alumínio (que aumenta em muito sua robustez) ela é pesada para carrega-la em um dia inteiro em um passeio.

Terrific piece of kit

Bought a fairly lightly used D7000 from a local dealer about 6 months ago. Terrific piece of kit - very pleased with it. It took me a little while to get used to it and I still haven't mastered some features, but have been getting some good shots... at least, I think they're good. Noise at higher sensitivity settings (ISO 6400) is not particularly noticeable unless you go out of your way to look for it. I know this camera has been discontinued, but a decent used one is well worth the money.

Best Bang for your buck.

I picked up a lightly used D7000 earlier his year. I've been using Nikons for about 10 years and have owned the D40, D70, D200, and D3000, but this one is the best Nikon I've laid my hands on. It's incredibly fast and its ergonomics are exactly what you would expect from a Nikon. Granted I have not owned professional level Nikons to compare, but as a hobbyist, and at this price point, I doubt anyone could offer a better piece of equipment.

So far as of Aug. 2015 yr. This is my All time Favorite Nikon DSLR !

I have owned, several DSLR camera's, and just about all of them, have been NIKON's :o) The reason I stick with NIKON, is because, my experience, goes way way back, to 35mm, Nikon camera's, and I have stayed, with Nikon, because, once you get used to the way one camera works, there controls, stay pretty much, standard, for the most part, plus durable, and they just work, I have enjoyed all of the Nikkor Glass, len's too, once you build up a collection of Nikkor len's, its had to switch. The D7000, just works & is super tough !

Excellent camera!

I have used the D7000 for 10 months and it is incredible. The 39 AF points in 3D AF mode is incredible for tracking action. The 16 megapixel sensor is very sharp and captures every detail. The ISO range is good and I am able to use it confidently up to 4000 ISO. The video is average but for the quick little videos it works great! I love the D7000!

Great Features in a semi professional body! built tough!

I have had this camera for over 4 years now and it is still going strong. The body is built way better than the new D7200 or even the D7100. I find the 16.2 megapixel sensor is a bit better in low light for ISO performance but my new d7100 contains way more details in the shadows. This sensor is still excellent though and should not be considered no good just because it's been replaced 2 times. I have had this camera in tons of dust, it's been beat around and thrown around. (not misuse just in the line of duty) Also it has sat on a tripod in a waterfall for about 3 hours with water splashing onto it steadily! Great camera and the only reason I upgraded was for the 24mp sensor in the D7100. Which is outstanding BTW! This body still has a place in my bag and I use it for fast action work.

Absolutely Great!

I've owned Nikon products for most of my adult life. Started with a Nikkormat when I was a teenager. I've worked professionally and semi-professionally as a photographer. Nikon products have always been excellent in quality and value. I started with DSLR's with a D3000 DSLR then went to a D5000 DSLR with a battery grip. I just purchased the D7000, got it and the MB battery grip slapped on a Nikkor 18-70 mm zoom and shot my oldest daughter's track meet yesterday. The camera handled like a dream shooting with Aperture Priority. Photos were crisp, well saturated, and the continuous drive at 6fps worked flawlessly. Over 1,000 photos later, I imported them into Apple's Aperture software as well as Nikon's Capture. I cannot say enough good things about this camera. It responded much more quickly than the D5000, and the features on it make photography a whole lot of fun. I'm still on the learning curve, but will undoubtedly learn to love this camera more as time goes on. We're off to another track meet next week and I can't wait.

A Five Year Old Powerhouse

I've been shooting for almost a decade now, and I love the Nikon D7000. It's quick, has excellent image quality (with the right glass), and good durability. The fact it's still selling strongly after nearly five years is a testament to its quality. Add a much lower price tag, and you've found a deal that cannot be beat. Reviewers may complain the video quality isn't good enough or it doesn't have newest fads built in such as GPS, wireless capabilities, etc. Call me old school, but the point of a camera is to take photos. If you'd like better video quality, there are plenty of camcorders available. And yes, wireless, gps, and such is great, but then again you're paying a premium for it. What photography boils down too is having a solid, reliable camera that can grab the shot you want. This is wha you'll find in the Nikon D7000.

Nikon D7000 - Refubished by Nikon Canada - Excellent!

Purchased a Nikon D7000 from Nikon Canada 3 days ago and I could not be happier! The camera was in perfect body condition and the shutter count was 1300! If anyone is reading these reviews and have second thoughts about a refurbished model don't. Love the camera itself, works perfectly, great dual wheel scroll for aperture and shutter speed! A bit hard for beginners (like myself) but great for growing into!

Full Featured, Compact, High Value, DSLR

The Nikon D7000 is an excellent, well built, compact, and high value DSLR. Its size, when coupled with Nikon DX lenses, makes for manageable transportation yet brilliant photographic results. Below is a photo of a Golden Eagle taken at a shutter speed of 1/400 of a second, an aperture of f/5.6, an ISO of 1000, Auto White Balance, and Center Weighted Metering.

Returned D7000 to buy newer model

I bought the D7000 to replace my D90. I didn't find a substantial enough difference and returned the D7000. Took same shots of same places. Disappointing results. I will upgrade instead to the newer model. I bought a D3200 at the same time as an ever present camera pocket camera and I liked the quality of the images better than the D7000 -- although the D3200 lacks some powerful features I value and need.

An exceptional package for creativity

I've been a long time Nikon user through the "F" series and then digital starting with a D1. Nikon has done a masterful job of advancing the technology including relative ease of use. The addition of the "U1" and "U2" settings feature has been a Godsend in speeding use in the field. The reduction in size of the frame is impressive and very helpful in our being very much on the go. It is hard to see how this cane improved on but knowing Nikon they will find a way. But for the foreseeable future, I'm more than satisfied, I'm very enthused about this camera.

Solid Performance!

Great camera at all levels. It has taken a beatin' and keeps on ticking. I've taken thousands of pics over 2 years and have been very happy with the results. Much better camera than my old D90. Post processing in LR4 and have been happy with output other than noise above ISO 800. I have recently purchased the D7100 with the improvements that will make it the new DX top dog. Nikon fixed one of my issues with the D7000: the mode dial on the top left would get accidentally moved too frequently and I'd starting shooting not realizing that the mode was switched. The D7100 now stops those slips. Still going to keep my D7000 because everything including the battery are interchangeable between D7000 and D7100 and it has proven itself over and over again as being fairly rugged and reliable. Even managed to come off a horse with me with no ill affects.

Big 5+ for me

This is my first nikon, I've been using canon before this and I'm glad I chose this camera! It focuses amazing it's very versatile and the fact that it is weather sealing is great since I'm a really big out doors type of person! It performs great at low light situations just a little bit grainy after 3200 ISO but the image is still amazingly sharp! I recommend this camera for beginners and starting photographers !

Excellent camera.

I've been wanting to go DSLR for some time and just didn't want to make the investment. Took the advise of a friend who has several Nikon's. I've tried the Nikon BDC riflescopes and loved the clarity and good glass. This is truly an amazing camera. A bit much for the beginner but, I decided what the heck, no sense in upgrading later and just went for it. It has all of the features you need to auto point and shoot through the manual operation of zoom, manual aperture, shutter control and much, much, much more. Easy to use, easy to learn. Excellent arrangement of menu controls that are very intuitive.
