Nikon Integrated Dust Reduction System that includes Image Sensor Cleaning function

The D7000 employs Nikon's Integrated Dust Reduction System, which includes the Image Sensor Cleaning function that vibrates the optical low-pass filter with four different resonant frequencies to reduce dust. It prevents unwanted spots from appearing on your images. This function can be set to operate automatically when the camera is turned on or off, or to manual.

Face-priority AF

Suitable for focusing on a human face such as for a commemorative photo. Up to 35 faces can be detected. When multiple faces are detected, the camera will focus on the subject recognized to be the closest. Alternatively, you can also choose a different subject with the multi selector.

In-camera movie editing functions

Easy in-camera movie editing is possible without a PC. You can delete unwanted parts by choosing the start or end point by frame, and save a selected frame as a JPEG image.

Full HD movie-recording function: D-Movie with enhanced operability and image quality

The D7000 offers high-image-quality full HD movie recording of 1,920 x 1,080/24p. You can shoot creative and beautiful movies taking advantage of shallow depth of field and a variety of interchangeable NIKKOR lenses. As with Live View, contrast-detect AF is possible. And if you set full-time-servo AF (AF-F) for AF servo mode and subject-tracking AF for AF-area mode, AF area tracks even a moving subject continuously and three-dimensionally.

Picture Control System for customizing colors and tones to your preferences

Nikon's Picture Control System allows you to customize sharpness, saturation and other parameters to match your preferences. Picture Control can be adjusted and saved, and also shared with other cameras compatible with Picture Control System.

Retouch menu

This enables easy in-camera image editing after shooting. The D7000 creates an edited image, while leaving your original shot intact.
