About this model
The Nikon D7000 is a serious enthusiast DSLR built for photographers who want more control than an entry-level body offers. Its 16.2-megapixel DX-format (APS-C) sensor delivers clean, detailed images with good low-light performance, while the 39-point autofocus system and 6 frames-per-second continuous shooting handle fast action and sports. The bright pentaprism viewfinder gives a large, clear view, and twin command dials put key settings at your fingertips. This kit includes the AF-S DX 18-105mm VR lens, a versatile everyday zoom with Vibration Reduction for sharper handheld shots. Ideal for enthusiasts stepping up from a basic DSLR or anyone wanting a tough, capable camera with access to Nikon's huge F-mount lens range.
