That being said, early reviews of the D7000 have it challenging the much respected, semi-pro grade Nikon D300S. This new Nikon DSLR features full HD video (1920 x 1080 at 24 fps), a 3" LCD screen with 921,000 pixels, and 6 fps continuous shooting."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1296062320.usr1.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>Curious about what the guts of a DSLR look like?

Neat. Shows a Sony IMX071 sensor. Sony still supplying Nikon with most of their sensors, it seems.
