  • what about the comfort and look, which one is better ?

  • i've had the D3100 for a year and i'm going on a safari trip soon...do you think it's worth me upgrading to the D7000?

  • @Kkpblue the d7000 will give a lot more versatility and speed if you need it.

  • what are the lenses suitable for D7000 for daily use and semi-advance use. Thanks a lot.

  • which one is good canon 7d or nikon d7000?

  • @hemchandran777 both are good, d7000 has slightly better image quality and canon has speed. If you shoot action or sports the canon may be best and if you shoot low light the d7000 may be better.

  • You can cchange autofocus The button is on manual/autofocus switch

  • what is the main difference between the nikkor 35mm f/1.8G compared to the 50mm f/1.4G?

  • @justinlow1990 the 35mm is only for dx cameras and the 50mm is a bit faster at f/1.4. If you own a dx camera the 35mm is just as good.

  • @justinlow1990 also there is a difference on what you can show on the frame. 35mm is taking more space around, and with 50 you have to stand back. I used 35mm and 50mm on my d7000. Can't say which one I like better:D

  • what fast lenses would you recommend for that is reasonable priced for a party outdoor low light type of shooting?

    thanks so much!!!

  • @justinlow1990 nikon 50mm f/1.4

  • You are wrong about all magnesium alloy body, it's in fact just a top plate. Also for those that say they wouldn't upgrade to this from their D90, you clearly haven't used both. This is sooooo much better than te D90 and better even than the D300. It's only downside is that it does tend to overexpose slightly but that's it. I have a fair few cameras, some notably more expensive than this but fir what this is priced at, you won't get better!!!

  • Great camera but as a D90 owner not worth upgrading to. For D80 absolutely!!

  • how do u get all the moey for these cams ?

  • @tman547 I dont own them, I rent them mostly

  • @QQQQcon what is the # of the attached lens?

  • hey man i got a question....which raw mode should i shoot my d7000 in? NEF raw or NEF raw +jpeg fine?

    thanks a lot!!!

  • @justinlow1990 I would shoot NEF raw + jpeg

  • i thought this camara has 1080p video

  • eee

  • You remind me of David Archuletta!

  • @harikays1992 Oh Yeah Huh? Hahahaha.

  • It does have a button to change the focus mode

  • would u recommend this camera for beginners?

  • @cerivera88 you could get this camera as a beginner, if money is not a factor then get the d7000.

  • I have both..my D300 is still my first camera to pickup..I shoot concerts in low light at 1250-1600.. The noise issue does not seem to be a problem to me..it still produces acceptable photographs.. Also with the battery grip and ight batteries the frame/sec rate is much faster..however , loving the D7000. I bought it as a 2 nd backup when I shoot and also to have another Lens at my fingertips. Usually70-200 on the D300 & either 35mm or 50mm 1.8's on the D7000. Battery grip is coming next..it is

  • it actually has an external dedicated button for AF mode selection

  • The thing that is bothering me the most is the decision between the D300S and the D7000. Connor, you've mentioned that you've owned the D300 which has the same AF system as the 300S. I'm upgrading from the D90 because of the AF upgrade more than for any other reason. I shoot landscapes so I'd like the 100 ISO on the D7000 as well. I've heard tons of conflicting opinions on whether the D7000's AF is as good as the D300's or not. In good light, there'd be little difference between my D90 and

  • @zirtico I would pick the d7000 any day except if I shot solely sports or action and in that case the d3s is probably what you want.

  • @zirtico I have had the D7000 since last november and I have also used the D200 & D300 the 200 was better built than the 300 and the 300 is more robust than the D7000 but for general use the D7000 is more than tough enough and feels very rugged, image wise I have stuck with the 7000 as IMO it has more latitude in the images which gives more control when post processing it also has the best low light ability by far and the af is quicker and more on the mark all round IMO the D7K is the best DX

  • Just noticed the combo you have there when doing this fantastic review! The 14-24mm & Nikon D7000. I'm hoping to buy the 14-24mm soon for the D7000, for awhile as I'm upgrading to FX later when spare funds allow me to purchase freely. Would you find 14-24mm on the D7000 wide? (not too ultra-/ultra-wide)

  • @xsimplyjosh I wouldnt get a 14-24mm for a dx camera, the tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 is a better choice just because it is so much lighter, takes filters and doesnt cost a fortune.

  • I just bought that camera. Am going through the mannual. When in mode "P" Progammed Auto. I cannot change the aperture settings. I know it's in the "flexiable program" is in effect because i can see the P*. Page 68 of the manual.

    Maybe you can help me. That would be great.

  • @prasadroh In Program mode P, the shutter speed AND the aperture will change simultaneously together. (i.e. decrease the length of shutter speed = increase in aperture size/decrease in f-stop number) and vice versa.

    If you want to have better control and change ONE setting like the aperture OR shutter only, you have to use A-priority (A) [or S-priority (S)] mode. Then you can adjust the aperture on the main dial (back of the body)

    Hope this helps :)

  • I have had the d90 for a few years now and just purchased the d7000 a couple of months ago. I totally agree with you. Simply the best camera I have ever owned. It is a semi professional camera dream. I do Weddings, Sports and Nature shoots, the d7000 does it all.

  • cool camera! i love it! And this camera is great for Time Lapse Photography too! you just need this device: tempusALL.bymac.org

    I got very professional time-lapse videos with camera! cool sunset videos!

  • Brill !! Thank u !

  • d90 weighs more than the d7000

  • @t045t2346 You are completely wrong. The D7000 is heavier mainly due to the magnesium alloy construction on the top & rear parts, the D90 lacks magnesium construction.

    Plus on a sidenote from the Nikon specs, D7000 = 780g body only w/ battery. D90 = 710g

  • Try to use more images with red rather than green for noise test...

  • So Handsome 55555

  • Great review, because of this, and several other reviews on the net, I have just bought a D7000, this will be my first Digital Camera. But many years ago before my kids came along I was an avid film photographer doing much paid freelance work for fishing, camping and 4x4 magazines. I am so glad to be back into it and your vids have helped a great deal. Cheers!

  • So far the only problems i see are the lack of histogram and limited bracketing for HDR. Do you think a promote system would help with adding bracketing from say 3 to 5 or 7steps? How could i deal with bracketing with the lack of a histogram? I did order the Nikon 35mm 1.8G lens and am on the fence about this camera? I do have the money and pretty sure i will order it.

  • Does anyone know what type of tripod he has? Thanks!!

  • Great review, thanks!

  • This or the canon 60d tough call... i found the d7000 just abit too cramped for me

  • It actually does have a focus type change button. It's actually integrated into the Auto/Manual focus switch on the front of the body.  You just have to press it and toggle the wheels

  • It actually does have a focus type change button. It's actually integrated into the Auto/Manual focus switch on the front of the body. You just have to press it and toggle the wheels

  • No offence but this guy looks like a young Arnold Schwarzenegger.

  • @sivabala1 Kinda reminds me of Ferris Bueller. LOL

  • Great review. Thanks for taking the time.

  • just sold my d90. would you recommend the d7000 or the d300s?

  • @lew87ys d7000

  • do you have a flickr?

  • @ThatSillyMosher yes i have links to my flickr and website on my main page.

  • Also another thing, the D300s shoots at 7fps without the battery grip and not 6fps like the D7000.

  • When you say the D7000 is just as robust as the D300s, this is not true. Only the top and bottom of the D7000 is magnesium alloy, where as the the whole of the D300s body is magnesium alloy.

  • @stubob19 you wont notice the difference, d7000 construction is plenty good for anyone, only those photographer who shoot in the rain with the camera unprotected would even notice a difference if any. The d300s might survive a longer drop but if you know how to take care of your camera that shouldnt happen.

  • On 2:00... its not true... yes u can :)

  • what lens is on the body?

  • @0SKBooth0 its a 14-24mm 2.8

  • I really like your reviews!

  • is this camera good enough for stock photography for a mid-long term with regards to its 16.2 Megapixel capability.

  • @nacah plenty good

  • Did you have high ISO noise reduction on or off?

  • @tuzisefu off

  • I appreciate the advice, i'm definitely gettin the Tokina 11-16 mm.

  • Hey what glass can you recommend for landscape and architecture?? And also do you know of a lens that can do it all? Thanks

  • @lazarra101 the tokina 11-16mm is a great architecture lens. The 28-300mm is a great lens that cover a huge range. Those lenses would go pretty well together.

  • @davec629 ..u hav a point there..hehe..i should hav thought of that..i call mine "saphira"..i dunno y..hehe..anyway..kudos nikon

  • i like this..only one thing..y do americans and other westeners prnounce it as NIEKON or NAYKON,,,whill it should be nee-kon..neeee-kon..we asians should know it..hehe..anyway..i love neekon!

  • @drewzenit I figure if he paid for it, he can call it anything he wants. I call mine "wonderful".

  • cool review! i like the program you use with the magnifying kens, may i know what program you use for you sample images?

  • @Voodoochill aperture

  • That is a very good review - appreciate this.

  • It's not actually full magnesium alloy body..

  • @evolutioner how u know?

  • @andrademeza

    because it's half magnesium alloy half plastic..

  • @evolutioner okay, but how do you know though..cause i wanted to know this and on dpreview(dot)com they have an extensive review and they said it was all magnesium alloy.

  • @andrademeza

    As usual, sites like dpreview always favour big brands like canon and nikon, oh well, they got paid anyways.

    they'd rather confuse the readers rather than giving full and accurate information.

    If u bother to google, or at least go to nikon's official website, it's actually stated in the features and specifications, the magnesium alloy portion is only the top and rear cover, it's not full body as claimed by you know who.

  • @evolutioner oh okay..thanks will do.

  • very articulate and well structures review, better than a lot of other ones on youtube

  • if the D7000 is a amature Camera then what is a Pro Camera?

  • @2point6x4 d700 or the d3 range

  • what lens is on that camera

  • finally got my nikon d7000.... your reviews make me finally decide to pick the d7000 over the canon eos 60d.. thanks! hopefully you'll do a lot more videos.

  • do u like that camera or ur old one ?

  • @pinoykillah18 I definitely prefer the d7000 to the old d300 that i owned but i dont actually own the camera. .

  • How many raw shots can this camera do in a row before it poops out?

  • I really don't get why you differentiate the D300 and d300s in image quality, they both are very close, both use the same Sony sensor (also used in alpha a700) . D7000 uses the new developed Sony sensor used in a580/a55/pentax k5/. What I wanted to say, you often used "better then the d300 and PROBABLY better then the d300s", well since d300=d300s basically - d7000 noise handling is better then both.

  • Hello fella, Firstly i would like to say i think you vids are great very informing.

    ok i need your help, I have a D90 and need to upgrade i would like to say im a semi pro but with a small budget. I would like a D700 But don't we all. lol. i have a few DX lenses so upgrading to FX will be expensive i mainly shoot Weddings and Portraiture, i use studio lights but for the weddings i use low light and as you know the D90 is a bit poor, What camera would you recommend for me D300s or D7000? Thanks.

  • @MikeFendtPhotography the d7000

  • Need your expert opinion Connor!? I am thinking of purchasing the 14-24mm for my D7000 would you recommend it? If not, which lense would you recommend that I get to do similar job? Thanks in advance for your kind advice....

  • @Europ4Jesus I wouldnt get the 14-24mm for a dx camera. The nikon 10-24mm or tokina 12-24mm or tokina 11-16mm is a much better choice.

  • d7000 and d90. which one best? for wedding, wildlife, portrait and outdoor photography?

  • @ZRulz18 the d7000

  • if you watch the U.S. comercials for nikon. which was made and approved by nikon,,they say nikon,,not neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekon­..

  • hello mate. thanks a lot for the video..quick question..what software is the best to use for editing pics? r there any free ones?

  • @A11550 lightroom 3 is good to start with

  • what is that 14-24mm fx doing on your dx?

  • hey Connor! Your videows are great!! What I like the most is that you are modest and don't disqualify others. Many people cannot afford the best equipment. Of course, stay objective because people want to hear the truth, as unbiased as possible. Stay that way and you will be very successfull. I bought the Blue Crane videos, and I think yours are better!! You should do instructional videos, especially for landscaping. Don't get discouraged by some negative comments. Some people are very jelaous

  • guys, what lens had been attached in his d7000?

  • Well done! Thank YOU!!!

  • @BIGredsArtWORLD19 D7000 and with the money I save buy A GRIP HANDLE.

  • @BIGredsArtWORLD19 they are completely different classes. d7000 is dx and d700 is fx. For most the d7000 is plenty good, especially if you are just getting into photography.

  • which is best ??? nikon d3100 or d7000 ??? please reply....thanks :D

  • @wereqhraein d7000 is the best right now but that is because it is a more expensive and advanced camera

  • @QQQQcon thanks dude!!! :) ...

  • I've had 3 Nikons: F2Afilm, D200 & D300 DSLRs, I just received my D7000 & it is the best, so far pictures are excellent, & features, 2 card slots, I feel it it[ is teh best

  • After unboxing,should you charge the battery before installing it into the camera or not?

  • @thermosinthesis I dont think it makes a difference.

  • @QQQQcon hi,

    thank you for your amaizing review. could you please tell me is lens 18-200 vrll good with this camera im thinking to buy it with d7000 body

    thank you in advance

  • i would buy Nikon d7000 it cost $1,199.95

  • hi, if you should compare Nikon D7000, D300s, Canon EOS 7D. Which one is the best?...Could you help me?

    thanks

    (sorry for the other message)

  • @denisdf I prefer the d7000, but that is just me, you can see reviews that i made comparing all of them

  • hi, if you should compare Nikon D700, D300s, Canon EOS 7D. Which one is the best?...Could you help me?

    thanks

  • Do you know the link to download for the hot pixel correction. Im not a video guy but I like to have my cam working to its full potential.

  • @ezrahumane I am not sure what it is. you can check out dpreview.com they might have the link. The d7000 I used didn't have that problem and I know others who don't have that problem. I wouldn't worry about it personally.

  • Hey, D7000 does have the option of changing the auto focus from full area/dynamic to single focal point on the outside body. If you look at the bottom left side of the camera you'll see the AF and M on the body. You can actually press that button and then move your aperture/shutter dial to mess with the settings. Great review by the way.

    I checked out your website. I think you have some amazing pictures worth purchasing. Keep up the great work buddy.

  • Is there a depth of field preview button?

  • @SirBassFass yes

  • What is your lens over there?

  • D7000 is the best camera, i had D90 i loved it i bought it twice and sold them all , now im saving for D7000

  • Nice review. 'Good for sports - especially children's sports.' Don't really understand why it's better for children's sports than adult sports.

  • what is better a D3100 or D90?

    and again... D7000 or D90? ... sorry im just new with all of this camera stuff i just bought a D3100

  • @jackeatelement well the d7000 is the best, but the d3100 is an awesome camera for the first time dlsr buyer. the d3100s a better choice than the d90 for first time users by far.

  • @jackeatelement

    Thank you very much (: i just don't understand like all the menu buttons and everything D: it's quiet confusing...

  • @abcJarrad. Why you Gould take it ?

  • i want to upgrade my first dslr the a200 to this camera ^^

  • are you going to buy this camera?

  • @willcitoman97 i think he did buy it

  • D7000 sry^^

  • @SuperBupi I would buy the d7000

  • D300s or d700

  • @SuperBupi d300s

  • What Cam you would take ?

  • omg who gives a shit how to say Nikon

  • Can you assign the func button to make use of focus are e.g 3darea matrix ect

  • @markhardacre1 Yes i believe you can.

  • no one wants 30 frames per second.

  • hi im planning on getting my first DSLR camera in march and i was planning on getting THe D90, is it really worth the wait and money for the D7000?!?!?!

  • @HuricaneBriii yes, the d7000 is like the do it all camera. If you dont need speed or good image quality at high iso though the d90 is fine. 

  • What lens did you use to display the camera with?

  • is it okay if I buy d7000 for a beginner?

  • @hanlei13 Sure

  • Hi, just wanna ask what kind of lens do you used in this video...?

  • You mentione something about the auto focus modes, that the camera doesn't have a button? I believe that button you are looking for us on the bottom part of the camera close the the lens. Tap it and it will change your focus points.

  • ur photos r super awesome its must have been hard takin em thumbs up for u

  • I believe its 1080p rather than 1080i.

  • For the ISO3200 shot, what setting of Noise Reduction did you have?

  • @LiquidTurbo none

  • it's pronounced "nikon" not "nyeeeeeeeekon"..

    americans.

  • @tomfewchuk I think it would be better to say it's pronounced 'neekon' and not 'naekon'. That might be easier for people to understand.

  • @Swackhammer1 .. what are you talking about.. i said americans say it like "nyekon", you should pronounce it the way it's spelt - "nikon" or if you want to get technical "nih-kon"

  • @tomfewchuk The problem here is that you're not specifying the pronunciation of the 'i' in Nikon. That's usually where the confusion is. Nikon is a Japanese company and the 'i' is pronounced like 'ee' in this case.

  • @tomfewchuk Chase Jarvis says it Nyeeeeeekon and he is a well known pro nikon photographer.. shut up you tool

  • @Recon9143 yea, you see it doesn't matter how pro you are, you can still say something wrong, especially if you're american in this case. i've listened to heaps of other nikon pros say it wrong too and it's just irritating

    go to wikipedia, type in "nikon" and click listen on the first line. it comes from japan, so it should be pronounced like it originally was - nikon

  • @tomfewchuk My question is WHO GIVES A FUCK? People with different accents pronounce things differently.

    Thanks for the video, it helped me make my mind and buy a d7000.

  • @tomfewchuk in almost every nikon video ive seen lately theres always some douche bag telling people how its pronounced and they always got some different way. SAY IT HOWEVER THE FUK YOU WANT AND DONT TRY TO CORRECT ANYONE ELSE. wether its nigh-kon, knee-kon, -Nikk-con

  • this helped me make my mind up about which of the 2 Nikon's (D300s) to go with. One of the better reviews I have seen so far.

  • The only thing you really need a Prime High End Lens!

    I am coming from a Rebel XT and I have the 50 mm f/1.4. I am learning how to use this Nikon D7000. I have not see anything yet that blow me away but a few images using the Kit lens.

    You need to invest in some good prime lens. That's it!

  • i wish i can have this camera it's a bomb..
