Nikon's new D7000
14/06/11 12:20
The newest Nikon entry, the D7000.
User selected settings help you switch from HDRi settings
to sports photography settings by simply moving
from user setting U1 to U2.
Program all your settings into each user defined
setting once and forget it.
There are EXIF settings and Auto Exposure
for forty year old lens.
14 bit color storage introduce subtle nuances.
16.9 Megapixel sensor is a strong plus.
It has a shutter quieter than
a Leica in quiet mode. LOL
Some writers claim that the D7000
is only one step below Nikon’s flagship D3x
DX0 has tested it and confirms the above.
There are some who say the D7000 is slow to focus,
only if you use the LCD screen,
If you use the viewfinder it outrageously fast and accurate

Bubble Spirit level
| Crystal clear housing slips on a camera shoe mount or lays flat on its side. The use of a bubble level aligns the camera with the subject matter, eliminating "tilted" photographs. Landscape, horizontal, or portrait, vertical, formatted pictures benefit from the use of the Flashpoint Bubble Level. QTVR panoramic photography requires the digital camera to be absolutely level with the horizon. Without a bubble level, this becomes just a guess and can cause much more computer correction work later. Eliminate tilted portraits. Reduce the amount of time computer correcting each tilted portrait with the addition of the Flashpoint Bubble Level to your arsenal of important photo gear. |
