Tech Friday: the new Nikon D7000 – First impressions

I just received my new D7000 at the hotel last night and I’m excited about taking it to the Virgin Islands next week to wring it out. I can say that my biggest concern was that since we jumped up to a 16.2 mega pixel sensor that the noise would not be as good. I made a few quick shots and they dispelled by fears, at first glance I would say it is wonderful at 1600 and very usable at 3200.

Overall the camera is easy to use, feels substantial without being too heavy. The files look great and the video is spectacular at 1080P. It even auto focuses in video mode, something no one else offers! Stay tuned next week, and I’ll share some real world images from both the D7000 and P7000.

Have a great weekend and stay tuned for more images and fun.

Thanks for the prayers, I’m feeling much better! You guys are the greatest……
