I have one. I think it is brilliant. A massive step up from the D80 I had before. The image quality is very high. Though I am not an expert and am willing to be told that the crisp, detailed photos I have taken are actually unusable.
The meter is wonderfully accurate, I like the colors it produces straight out of the camera and virtually everything can be tweaked and adjusted. It is more adjustable than I need it to be really. The screen at the back is the same as the D3 and it has a couple of modes, U1 and U2, that you can set to your own settings; I use one for B&W so I can switch to that made just by turning a dial.
The menus are quick and easy to use. I don't have high-spec lenses but it still focuses quickly. Silent mode does make it really really quiet too.
I don't want to get in to the full-frame versus non full-frame argument and it would be lovely to have full frame if only to avoid the magnification issue but the difference in price is too much for me. I have not found the smaller view finder to be a problem either.
The D7000 feels a lot more solid than the D80/D90 etc and I have used it in wet weather with no problems.
