Nikon 7000

I have a friend who is going to buy this system for both stills and video and I am thinking of following his lead. Does anyone have any experience with this cam at all? Especially for the video end of it? Interested to know how well it focuses for WA shooting into the blue. Any rolling shutter issues and really any info you can supply.

I love this setup; used it in Dominica a few weeks ago and plan to purchase.

On the D7000, what is the video time relative to sd card size? Ie, 3 minutes of video will use how much card capacity??

This is one of my first videos from the Nikon D7000. I basically just turn on the liveview and pressed record. No white balance adjustment, no changing the settings for video just using the settings I had for shooting stills.

This 78 second clip used 186m. The longest clip I have done 8min 10sec and it used 1.12gig.

I used the Tokina 10-17mm and found this lens great as it always seems to have everything in focus. Just focus via viewfinder as you would shooting stills and turn on liveview.

Wow, full marks - Mark. Thanks for sharing.
