Great video! Thank you for getting straight to the point. I was getting annoyed watching other videos with a long intro, just to find out they never ended up covering the stuff I needed to know
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:18 📷 Jared Polin introduces the Nikon D7000 and discusses its weight and responsiveness. 00:36 🔍 This video aims to explain the functions of each button on the Nikon D7000 for beginners. 01:18 📷 The on/off switch is located on the top right, with a white dial that is flicked to the right for "on" and to the left for "off." 02:15 💾 The Nikon D7000 can use two SD cards, allowing you to store different types of files or use one as a backup. 03:30 📸 Attaching and removing lenses is demonstrated. Align the white dot on the lens with the white dot on the camera body and twist to secure. 04:11 🎯 The bullseye button ontop is used to select different metering modes, like spot meter, center-weighted meter, or 3D matrix meter. 05:06 ➕➖ The camera has an exposure compensation button for adjusting exposure settings. Hold it down and turn the dial to make adjustments. 06:02 🔄 There's a function button on the camera's front that can be customized for various functions, like metering or depth of field preview. 06:30 🔄 The green dot is used to reset the camera to its factory default settings. Hold it along with another green dot button to initiate the reset. 07:00 ⚡ The flash button pops up the built-in flash when pressed. It also controls various flash settings when held down. 07:57 📸 The bracketing button is used for HDR photography, allowing you to set different exposure values for multiple shots. 08:26 📷 The release button on the camera body allows you to detach the lens. 09:22 📷 The camera features a switch for changing focus modes between auto-focus (AF) and manual focus (MF). 09:50 📸 The diopter adjustment on the camera helps people with glasses fine-tune the viewfinder to match their vision. 10:47 📺 The camera has a 3-inch HD screen for image playback and video recording. 11:27 🔄 The info button displays camera settings on the screen, acting like a built-in user's manual. 12:10 📽️ The camera's hot shoe allows for attaching external flash or a microphone for better audio during video recording. 14:01 ⬆️⬇️ The multi-directional dial helps navigate menus and select focus points, with an OK button for confirming choices. 15:25 ⚖️ The camera's weight balance is adjustable for users with glasses, called diopter adjustment. 16:04 🔍 The zoom-in and zoom-out buttons are used to view images in different formats. 18:23 🤖 The camera has various shooting modes, including manual (M), aperture priority (A), shutter priority (S), program (P), auto (green mode), and more. 19:32 📝 There are user-defined modes (U1 and U2) that allow you to save and quickly access specific settings configurations. 20:52 📼 The camera has a video mode with live view functionality, controlled by a dedicated switch. 21:07 📷 A mirror-up (MUP) mode minimizes vibrations for long-exposure shots. 21:50 💡 The video concludes with an invitation to watch the next video on navigating the camera's menu settings.

One thing that was not mentioned which I regard important especially for those who do not know the D7000 (also D7100 and 7200) is that the lens used in this video is manual. For you to use such lens with full compatibility it has to be AI or AIs type. Another thing that is required for such lenses is to check the menu for the "Non-CPU lenses" feature. Then you choose the longest Focal Distance which in this case is 50mm and the widest Aperture which is f/1.8. Next, you set a number, so everytime you want to use this lens, you choose the number and the camera will display the correct settings. I have some analog Nikkor lenses I collected due to their great quality and lower price such as the Nikkor Series E 135mm f/2.8, Nikkor S 50mm f/1.4, Nikkor 55mm f/1.2 among others.
What about the manual movie settings? I've seen many people say that they should be off, because if you put the lens and the camera in manual (at the switch), this manual movie settings should be off
Hey can someone please recommend an ideal NIKON lens for my D7000? I've got no lens, and I'm not sure where to start. Should it be a CPU Nikon lens? Thanks in advance!
