Nikon fans or the so called anti Canon group, we have something hot for you. Though news have been heating up that Nikon will soon be adding the P7000 to their Coolpix lineup and bring in D7000 which was tagged as the actual successor of D90, nobody had the remotest idea about the launch dates of these cameras.

Speculations were being made as expected but nothing was concrete until recently when Nikon Rumors pushed in the exact release dates of D7000 and P7000. The dates, 8th of September for P7000 are exact as per Nikon Rumors only and not officially announced by Nikon. No doubt why we didnt find even one good image of the D7000 around the internet.

The P7000 will boast a ten megapixel resolution sensor with RAW shooting features. Video shooting will be possible at�720p and the camera will have 28-200 mm equivalent zoom lens with a 3 inches LCD screen. Though least amount of information is available on the DSLR D7000 yet Nikon Rumors had suggested that the new DSLR will have 100% viewfinder coverage with dual memory card slots.

As the D7000 is being considered as the successor of D90 henceforth one should be rest assured that this DSLR camera will have functions that can give fight to any of Canons new entry level cameras. Though it would be very unprofessional of us wink, wink to compare Nikon to Canon in such a when, lets face it, it is hard to resist
