Scene Recognition System utilizing 2,016-pixel RGB sensor and image sensor [NEW]

Scene Recognition System precisely reads the situation of the subject before shooting and delivers highly accurate auto control. It utilizes a newly developed 2,016-pixel RGB sensor to analyze brightness and color information of a scene and applies this to autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash control and auto white balance for accurate control. Also, the D7000 detects up to 35 human faces utilizing image sensor when using face-priority AF during Live View and movie recording, and playback zoom of people's faces of still images.

From NikonRumors: 
Taken at an unknown Best Buy store:
Again, don’t assume that you can walk into a Best Buy store today and buy one. They will be released for sale around October 17th or 18th, which are probably the embargo dates for all retailers. Some Best Buy stores may not have any, others may have only only 1-2 pieces.

Auto exposure control

The 2,016-pixel RGB sensor detects highlights within a frame precisely. It calculates optimal exposure to deliver more accurate auto exposure control and i-TTL flash control.

Active D-Lighting with refined image processing

Nikon's exclusive Active D-Lighting offers the ability to preserve details in the highlights and shadowy areas of images shot in high-contrast scenes such as those that are backlit. ADL levels are selectable from "Auto", "Extra high", "High", "Normal", "Low" and "Off". The D7000 employs a new image-processing system that produces less color phase shift even when the ADL level is increased. Furthermore, it realizes high-speed, real-time processing with high accuracy within image-processing pipelines. The D7000 also allows you to bracket for up to 3 frames.

Nikon D7000

Wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 6400

The ISO sensitivity range of the D7000 is wide, from ISO 100 to 6400 at normal setting, and it can be raised up to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent). Highly improved noise-reduction technology reduces spotted color noise while maintaining resolution. The D7000 lets you select a faster shutter speed and expands creative possibilities in lowlight situations and sports scenes without worrying about image-degrading noise.

New image-processing engine "EXPEED 2"

The D7000 employs the new image-processing engine "EXPEED 2". This achieves higher-performance noise reduction, improved color reproduction, high-speed image processing and enhanced movie-processing performance and efficient energy saving with a smaller engine chip than that of the D90. And there is no reduction in continuous shooting frame rate even when high ISO noise reduction or Active D-Lighting is activated.

AF system featuring 39 high-density focus points


The D7000 incorporates Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus sensor module. It detects and tracks the subject precisely with 39 focus points. Nine cross-type sensors cover the most frequently used center area to deliver higher subject-acquisition and focusing performance. There are selectable AF area modes according to the scene - single-point AF, dynamic-area AF (9 points, 21 points and 39 points), 3D-tracking and auto-area AF. You can also choose to shoot with 11 focus points. With Scene Recognition System that recognizes more detailed information utilizing finer-segment 2,016-pixel RGB sensor, the D7000 shows higher subject-tracking and subject-identification performance.

Auto white balance

The D7000's intelligent auto white balance algorithm renders white as truly white even when shot under a wide range of light sources, including mercury vapor light. The D7000 analyzes color and brightness information of the scene before shooting utilizing Scene Recognition System, and detects the light source highly accurately by referencing its massive collection of in-camera shooting data. The D7000 also carries another auto white balance mode that maintains warm lighting ambience when you shoot under incandescent light.

Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor

At the heart of the D7000 is a DX-format CMOS image sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels, optimally engineered to gather more quality light through sharp NIKKOR lenses. With 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable) operating within the sensor, the D7000 realizes stunning images that are richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format without sacrificing shooting speed or energy efficiency. Combine these with the agility of the DX format and its signature 1.5x focal length telephoto potential and you can begin to see where this kind of shooting power can take you.

Question time!

Today we bring you a question that has given us one of our followers. We hope that you respond to him.
"I am a happy owner of a Nikon D300 that I use in conjunction with a 18-200mmVR.Among the different types of photography I prefer the kind of "portrait".Assuming that I'm an amateur photographer and I shoot for sheer pleasure of it; which aim would you recommend for the genre portraits among the listed below(I hope the letters are correct)?
1) AF-S 50mm f/1.4 G;2) AF 85mm f / 1,8 D;3) AF-S VR 105mm f / 2.8
