Those who like to focus on quality and a nice big viewfinder wants, can not ignore the D7000, because I have looked at quite a few cameras in this price range and there were all seekers but much smaller. Live View is nice, but I would rather use the viewfinder directly. With 39 focus points and 100% image coverage you are just thrilled when you look through the viewfinder. The battery lasts pretty long through which you of course with less flash photos creates as without, but that is self-explanatory. It provides easy times to 500 photos without flash and that's a word. The battery is charged quickly with the quick charger. The results are just great in terms of sharpness and color, the lens, which is included in the kit here, made me quite surprised at the speed and quality. I would rather have a "cheaper" expected because cost-known good lenses at a price. In this kit you will not be disappointed and make a good catch.
It is already well served in any case to the lens and has a good coverage ideal for vacation photos. 18-105mm is my opinion, the weight and the total weight with the body still in the context of the "portable", which I now tend to Fotorucksack. Those who like to photograph, but this takes into account, because you will be rewarded with the beautiful photos and can also merrily going snap. With 2 memory card slots you will probably need longer to have full time (I currently have 2 times 16GB in it). The first compartment for photos and the 2nd partition for video. It can safely but also as a backup copy of the first map set, or you can save the images in RAW format, or as a JPEG and RAW together, or only as a JPEG. The 2nd partition can serve as a mirror and you can also copy from one compartment to another.
Conclusion: You will not regret the purchase because the camera does everything you expect from a DSLR. Stable housing, very good technique indoors and many many settings that you can hardly exploit. I have not regretted it yet not a day and may the D7000 only recommend everyone who sees it not just as a gimmick, but the photography is a passion. The 16 megapixels are more than sufficient, even if someone wants to make a picture of a wall poster. Beautiful and warm colors, as it is known by Nikon and the operation of the camera and the menu I find very well thought out and arranged, this is certainly a matter of taste as with all the other points.
