Hello Mark & welcome.
I wonder if you've tried a two button reset on the D7000?
The should show if it's a setting.
Unfortunately, it looks to me like a sensor or processor fault.

I wrote about this lens being temperamental... Here are some examples:
One with a streetlight in the shot...
Shot in a slightly different direction, without moving...
For this one, I moved about 4 meters away from the streetlight to get rid of the light overspill...

OK then 20mm max allowed, but we try to use wider as possible.
I am looking with time for Nikkor AF-S 14-24mm f/2.8G IF-ED, I found one second hand for 600 Euro + shipping, and it's tempting me too much it's very fair price.
Only one defect, the rubber on the zoom ring is a little loose, but the lens is near mint. And it comes with original soft case and cups.
I see how to fix the prob adding another rubber more narrow on top of the other.
If it still doesn't sell, maybe next month it will be mine, it's a great lens and nice price.
Be aware that it is a temperamental lens to use. The big, protruding front element will find any stray light in the scene and use it to change your previsualized idea. If you shoot it stopped down, the DOF preview is your friend…
