Today Nikon released a new middle-class digital SLR camera called D7000. The camera is targeted to replace the D90 is so popular for 2 years back is now sold a little more expensive with the body only price of 12 millions. The presence of Nikon D7000 is to be expected is the answer to Nikon over the Canon EOS 60D birth of both of which share the similarity of the specification, have the same price and both belong to the class of semi-professional cameras APS-C sensor. Nikon itself since the presence of D5000 seems to have consistent naming DSLRnya camera range with four-digit number that is safer for the anticipation of naming the camera until a few generations to come.

If the previous Nikon surprised the market by making the first D3100 using EXPEED processor 2, 1080 HD video and AF during video, D7000 now also carrying a similar feature. Nikon D7000 has been following the trend with the ability to record HD video format 1080p 24fps movie with continuous auto focus and flexibility to manually adjust the video settings. But Nikon D7000 mainstay not only in terms of video only, precisely as a semi-pro camera D7000 is more targeted to serious photographers who indulge a hobby of photography with a series of upscale features at a price that is still quite affordable.
Here are the basic features of the Nikon D7000:

Judging from the above specifications appears that almost every aspect there is a significant improvement compared to the D90, even resembles the features on the D300. So it seemed natural that D90 owners would ever be tempted to upgrade to this D7000. This camera body is at first glance is similar to the D90 to the difference of a special button for a live-view and the movie (just like the D3100). Nikon D7000 has the left button layout is the same as the D90 which is to access the MENU, WB, ISO, and Quality. However, the D7000 provided the play button to access the scene modes S, CL, CH as in the D300 (the play of this kind does not exist in the D90). D7000 on the mode dial is no longer given a few Scene modes such as Landscape, Macro, etc.. Instead, there is a choice of Scene Modes, two User Profile that can be stored (U1 and U2) to complete the modes P, A, S, M and AUTO
