Great to have a REC709 color adjustment and ease of calibration built into this monitor. A good value that nicely matches other monitors in our multi-monitor video editing system.

This gaming headset doesn't miss a beat. Really good sound even compared to some of my studio headphones and the microphone is clear. That's about it - works well at a reasonable price.

If you remember these games, you'll want to play them again. So fun having access to the large catalog of games in the NES Classic. Parents and kids enjoy it equally well and there are finally a few games I can beat my 14-yo at!

I wanted a small and portable mouse to use with my laptop. Had tried a wired one and a different bluetooth model with no success (to be fair, each was at a minimum 7 years old...)
Put the battery in, went to bluetooth settings on my laptop, accepted the connection, and BOOM - it works. No need to power down - it wakes up quickly and works great for the basic mouse functions I was hoping to have like scroll, right and left click. Battery still going strong after three weeks of daily use.

Bought this for my 81 y/o mother to use for email, photo sharing and the occasional email. She loves it compared to the Widows desktop she had before. Easy and intuitive for her, less prone to malware, and really speedy given the price. A winner for users of any age.

All my lenses have this Hoya NXT (or the Plus version) on them. It's a small price to pay for peace of mind and protecting the front element of expensive lenses. Rugged, clear and easy to clean.

Got an little overzealous flying my DJI Mavic Air in sport mode and clipped a tree. Surprisingly, the drone still performed pretty well with about 1/4 of a blade sheared off. Was headed overseas for an assignment and these in-store replacements saved the day.

Sony XQD New G series offer max read 440MB/s and max write 400MB/s. This dramatically reduces transfer times even for large quantities of RAW images or data-intensive 4k video files.

Using in a Nikon D5 and it's really unbelievable how fast the camera and card combination writes files. Shooting extended sequences at 12 FPS is no problem - even with RAW files. With JPG, it seems there is unlimited shooting. Reliable and tough, as far as I can tell. Also have one in my Nikon Z6 and it has gone over a year with zero problems.

Large capacity and quick transfers. My operating system and entire photo archive get backed up this for off-site storage. Bought on sale for a great price, but it's hard to put a dollar amount on peace of mind.

A great 50mm for the Z series cameras. Much sharper, faster focusing and quieter than my Nikon 50/1.4 with the adapter.
I shoot in low light, wide open, quits a bit and sharpness is excellent and the mages really pop.

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Standard Lens: A perfect everyday lens for any photographer, the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G offers fast autofocusing combined with an integrated lens coating to deliver clear and crisp images. The wide-open aperture is ideal for low-light shooting and creating images with beautiful background blur.
 

Is this compatible with the D7000

Yes, it is compatible. The effective focal length of any lens placed on a DX sensor camera (like the D7000) is to multiply by 1.5x. So this lens will offer the same perspective as a 75mm lens on a full-frame camera. If you want a 50mm equivalent for your D7000, look at the Nikon 35mm 1.8G DX lens.

Work or play games with this CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme desktop computer. It has a 2TB SATA hard drive + 480GB SSD and provides plenty of space for media storage, and the 32GB of DDR4 SDRAM let you run multiple intensive programs without lagging. This CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme desktop computer has a GeForce RTX 2070 graphics and produces stunning visuals to bring game environments to life.
 

I did not see any specifics on the monitor outputs. Can this support multiple monitors and what is the configuration (HDMI/DVI)? Second question is about the USBs? What configuration of 3.1 and are these Superspeed+ (10GB)?

I have a dual 4K monitor setup working using one DisplayPort and one HDMI. I tried with two DisplayPorts and didn't have initial luck, but I'm new to the Windows/PC world so it could be a problem I have yet to solve. Both monitors are resolving at 4K and there seems to be no lag, so I'm calling it good for now.
