Nikon D7100 Review And Specifications

By Christopher Goldman


Announced last February 2013, the D7100 Nikon has already gained a lot of positive reviews from customers and continues to impress enthusiasts. This new flagship device from the Japanese manufacturer comes with a lot of improvements such as the auto-focus, a new weather sealing protection, video features, and so much more.

Here is the review of the newest and best-selling D7100 from Nikon:

Sensor/Processor - These are the two departments where this camera got new improvements. It features a 24.1 megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor and coupled with the EXPEED 3 processor for high quality images and fast and accurate response. It also comes with high ISO low light performance of 100 - 400, and up to 25600 expanded.

Auto-focus and High-Speed Shooting - For those who have experience with the D300, you will be happy to know that this latest Nikon camera also uses 51 focus points. It also features a 2016 pixel RGB Sensor for a more accurate result. This camera can take up to 6 frames per second.

LCD Screen - It does not have the articulating screen that we all love, instead it features a 3.2" 1.2m-dot LCD display which is fixed. If you are not very particular in this department, or if you would even prefer your camera this way, then there is no problem. But it is clearer and provides useful info.

Videos - Compared to its predecessor, its video capture features are very impressive. You can record at multiple formats such as 1080p full high definition now at 30p and 25p and 720p HD at up to 60p. And using the 1.3X crop mode, you can increase its capabilities of recording up to 50i or 60i.

Design and Accessories - The material used is not all magnesium alloy but the critical areas are which is kind of not a big deal. It is lighter and smaller and those with smaller hands will be comfortable with it. It has the same Nikon EN-EL Lithium-Ion battery with MH-25 recharger. Also, it has 2 micro-SD card slots which can be very important.

Another very interesting addition is the "I" button which is located at the lower left. It is a very useful short cut to adjust settings even on live view.

Final Words - The D7100 Nikon is known for its sharp and detailed images and responsiveness. Its predecessor, the D7000, was very successful and with the improvements that this camera have, we can easily say that it will make a lot of enthusiasts and professionals alike very happy.
