Nikon D7000. Quality of prints from shots taken in low light 

Analysis of prints and on-line 100% fragments. Prints from photos ISO 800 – ISO 25600, print sizes 10 x 15 cm – 40 x 60 cm. (4×6 – 16×24). Low light: f/2,8 1/20 – 1/30 sec. (photos courtesy of www.imaging-resource.com). Based on that analysis – tables of practical usability of Nikon D7000 in low light. The assessment results from discussion of six photographers, amateurs and professionals. Conclusion: very good camera but only marginally better than D90 as far as quality of low light photos are concerned.

• See also: my comparison of shots of D7000 and D90 with photos from fotopolis (small difference)
• See also: comparison of low light shots of D7000, D90, Canon 60D – cameralab (small difference)
• See also: comparison of sensors of D7000 and D90 on dxomark (small difference)
• See also: review of D7000 na fotopolis (in Polish, very positive assessment)
• See also: review of D7000 on dpreview (positive assessment but without enthusiasm)
• See also: review of D7000 on imaging-resource (enthusiastic)
• See also: review of D7000 by Thom Hogan (very positive assessment)

Sum up: Quality of low light, high ISO photos from D7000 is very high but only marginally better than from D90. D7000 is very good camera but dissapoints me in the most important aspect: the improvement of photo quality in really difficult light conditions. If you do not need 16 MB sensor, HD, front and back focus in-camera corrections I do not see any reason to change D90 for D7000. Personally, I have D80, I did not buy D90 waiting for even better next generation Nikon APS stuff. Now I regret. D90 is the excellent camera and its successor takes very similar photos. And all D7000 gadgetry aimed at luring me to buy it… I do not simply need them. (2011, January 21)
