Digital Home Thoughts: Nikon D7000 Reviewed by Digital Photography Review

"When it was announced in September the D7000 took a lot of people by surprise. Although a D90 successor had been on the horizon for some time, what wasn't expected was how close in specification terms the new camera would turn out to be to the D300S. In some respects, in fact, the D7000 actually outguns its (supposedly) semi-pro cousin, and offers a compelling upgrade option to both D90 and D300S owners, whilst nominally sitting between the two in Nikon's current lineup."

Alright, here's the DPReview review of the Nikon D7000, and the verdict is well, good. Basically if you're looking for something more advanced but not professional grade, the D7000 is pretty much it. Stills are very good (though the noise does not look much better than my D300), and the video has a lot less rolling shutter issues than the D90. I just played with one at Nikon today and was quite impressed. However I don't agree with it as an upgrade for D300s owners!
