generation like D800, D4 etc.Please dont underestimate the power of
D7000.Currently for cropped body this is best and is a true beast.D7000
is a professional camera too if you are a professional photographer.I
exchanged D7000 for D90 because of its champion response for low
light.Also with D90 i found it very difficult to get correctly exposed
image with F1.4 lenses as the minimum shutter speed of D90 is 1/4000s and i had to step down to 1.8 or even higher unless i use ND filter
Victor Camcorder Vc-11.but i think its missing in here.(snapsort)
i want to know difference with all of their features.(including light sensitivity and frames per second)PLEASE REPLY!!!!!
Well, so does the D7000.
its that true?
At least the D90 has been around long enough to have any bugs worked out. (And I haven't heard of any, actually.)
Can anyone confirm/refute these ugly rumors I've heard about the D7000?
One significant feature is sensor cleaning which they both have. The 7000 also records movies for longer with focusing. On the 90 it's small snapshot movies but won't replace a camcorder. So the 7000 is the more polished and more complete product, but the 90 is very good and at the moment the price is the big decider.
I was faced with the same decision a month ago: D90 or D7000?
Because it was my first DSLR, I ended up buying a D90 for $680 CAD. The D7000 was nearly twice as much at $1250 CAD. Although the performance of the D7000 is superb, I was on a tight budget and wanted the best bang for my buck. The way I treated this dilemma, I compared to it buying a first car (start cheaper so you can better appreciate the more expensive ones in the future). Ultimately, this choice is up to you and will depend on how much you can spend for new technology.
As for the prime lens, I would agree that it’s a great first lens. If I can also suggest the Nikon 35mm f/1.8, which is ~30% sharper than the 50mm f/1.8, but almost twice the cost. I got it for around $190 US, no warranty. (+$60 would have gotten me warranty but the lens is cheap enough to replace).
- D7000 has startup time of 0.13s, compared to 0.15s on the D90 (so both startup very fast :)
- D7000's shutter lag is 50ms, down from 65ms on the D90 (to put this in comparison, the flagship D3s has shutter lag of 40ms)
The D7000 looks like an impressive upgrade over the D90. Some differences not captured by Snapsort above include:
- 39 AF points with 9 cross-type (vs the D90's 11 AF points and 1 cross-type)
- Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus module (vs the D90's Multi-CAM 1000), its hard to say what this means, but given the numbering I this points to faster and more accurate focusing, possibly even better than the D300s/D700/D3s lineup featuring Multi-CAM DX3500 and FX3500?
- Magnesium alloy body (vs polycabonate)
- Upgraded matrix metering system (2,016 pixels vs 420 pixels)
Given the 2 f-stop increase in boost ISO (up to 25,600 from 6,400) and 1 f-stop increase in max ISO (up to 6,400 from 3,200), hopefully we'll see significant low light image quality improvements. Currently the D3s is about 2 f-stops ahead of the D90 (image quality on the D3s as ~3200 ISO is as good as on the D90 at ~800 ISO). I hope we might see the D7000 about halfway inbetween, shooting the same quality at 1600 ISO that the D90 does at 800 ISO.
Is it the price difference reason for the margin or D7000 still needs to be further rated?
