Nikon Inc. has today announced its new D7000 digital SLR, an update for 2008's D90 model.
The Nikon D7000 offers numerous changes throughout its weather-sealed, magnesium alloy body. The heart of the D7000 is a newly developed, DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixel resolution, coupled to Nikon's latest-generation EXPEED 2 image processor. The pairing allows the D7000 digital camera to provide ISO-equivalent sensitivities from 100 to 6,400, expandable as high as ISO 25,600 equivalent at full resolution.
The D7000 also sports a newly developed 39-point autofocus system with nine cross-type points at the center of the frame, and a new 2,016 pixel RGB metering sensor. The Nikon D7000 further improves upon the D90's feature set with an uprated H.264 / MPEG-4 AVC Full HD (1,920 x 1080 pixel) high definition movie mode with external stereo microphone connectivity, and an updated viewfinder that now provides 100% coverage.
Power for the Nikon D7000 is supplied by a newly specified EN-EL15 lithium ion battery pack, and the D7000 is also compatible with an optional MB-D11 portrait / battery grip. Images in Raw and JPEG formats, and movies in .MOV containers, are stored on dual Secure Digital card slots compatible with the latest SDHC and SDXC types.
The Nikon D7000 ships from mid-October 2010, priced at around US$1,200 body only. A kit version will also be available, including the D7000 body along with an optically stabilized AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR kit lens, for a total list price of around US$1,500.
