Is it possible on the D7000 to set it on timer but to take continuous shots and not just one?
continuous shots on timer with D7000

No. Based on what the manual states for "B" the remote or timer mode will fire the shutter one time as if one pushes the release button once and then releases it. For example, on "B" the shutter speed will be about 1/4 second.
A remote electronic release which will give the camera a held down release button signal might work.

Should be possible...it is on my D5000. Let me look it up and get back.

Page 214 in the manual. Menu -> custom settings. Then self timer delay, number of shots and time between shots.
I used this feature on my D5000 when my wife and I went out to take some pictures of us. Came in handy to get a number of shots to have the one where we were smiling or whatever the best.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Interval Shooting. Page 254 of the manual.
My best,

It is on page 214 on the current D7000 manual. However it is about shooting several images at from about 0.5 to 3 seconds between shots. Albeit, this is sort of continuous, but more just multiple exposures over an extended time frame.

Hi all,
I think I meant 154 (a pesky typo), and the actual text for instructions begins on 155.
My best,
Mike

Also this might help. This is part of page 157.
A Release Mode
Regardless of the release mode selected, the camera will take the specified number of shots
at each interval. In CH (continuous high speed) mode, photographs will be taken at a rate of
up to 6 shots per second. In S (single frame) and CL (continuous low-speed) modes,
photographs will be taken at the rate chosen for Custom Setting d6 (CL mode shooting
speed, 0217); in mode J, camera noise will be reduced.As i read it 1sec 6 shots 2sec 12 shot. I guess you can shoot till the buffer fills per interval and i guess you have to count how long it takes for the buffer to empty to start the next interval. I'll have to try this sometime.

I use it all the time when I need a birds eye view (put it up on my monopod) you can either do self timer at .5 sec, 1 sec, 2sec, or 5sec intervals for up to 9 frames. Additionally the intervolometer will run for as long as Ive let it...
Unfortunetally you have to set it in the menu but once set it works like a charm...
Glad to hear it worked for you parke1953, got any pics to show for it :D

Just set it up in my computer room to make it work. 8 frames per interval to fast a shutter and just got a black screen. But it does work good. Need to play with this more.
