Is the Nikon D7000 good for beginners in photography?
So I want to get into photography… All my life I've enjoyed taking photos and being creative with the camera as a hobby but now I want to go further and actually make something of it.
Would the Nikon D7000 be a good camera for a beginner in photography?
I currently have a cheap 'Fujifilm FinePix XP10 12.2 MP Digital Camera' but I'm a quality freak and pictures on this camera are quite fuzzy.
**Sorry if I'm using the wrong terms, lol this is new to me…
Added (1). I also want the Nikon for all the settings it has (which I'm yet to learn about)
Added (2). Hmm the Fujifilm has been on many adventures, stolen/recovered, crushed in a recliner, used deeper than 3m underwater, dropped countless times, not kept in a case etc possibly the reason it's fuzzy?
And don't worry, I would take great care of a Nikon.

First thing to figure out is why are the pictures fuzzy on your FinePix. I'm not too familiar with this camera, but just because something is cheap or point and shoot, it should not put out fuzzy pictures as a 12 MP camera. It could be either camera or user.

The D7000 is not quite a beginners, but more of an amateur enthusiast DSLR.
Yes, the D7000 has the potential to produce great images, but it's the user that really counts.
Here are some photos taken with the D7000:
May I ask, what made the Fujifilm produce "fuzzy" results?
I'd recommend you start with an entry level camera such as the d40, d5000, d3100, or d60
it's easier to learn so that when you are a serious amateur, you can move up to a better camera and know the basics of it
The d7000 is a great camera for someone not afraid to learn and planning on taking photography seriously.
