Question
I'm searching for D7000 compatible tripod in local online market.
D7000 body doesn't have small whole near the screw as shown below (well it has but pretty far).
However, in the local market whatever I hit has some small element near the main screw.
So can somebody show the plate(s) which are compatible with nikon? What is the standard name for Nikon's plate and what is the standard on plates shown above?
Answer
That pin that you've circled will be a spring loaded pin that will retract. Some cameras may have a hole that pin will fit into to keep the camera from swiveling, but if the camera has no hole, the pin will retract and won't be in the way.
By the way, the pictured tripod looks pretty light. If you have a large lens on your D7000 that tripod will probably work, but doesn't look like a really sturdy tripod. You can read up on recommendations here
