Low Light with the D7100

The D7100 keeps amazing me. Got to the lake late yesterday "Golden Hour +" LoL but had to try anyway. The sun was almost completely gone. The AF drilled the eye and fast. Well I shot this at a super low ISO but the noise at higher ISO settings are amazingly low. Even the 55-300 kit lense at 5.6 performed well in the dark. Only question I have is the crop. No.# 1 in the original, No.# 2 is with slight crop. Suggestions?

Oh, forgot to mention this was hand held as are most of my shots. That Nikon VR is truly amazing.

Sorry Blacktop, Forgot it was at 100, Most of the shots after that one were at 3200. Posted before I caught the error.

Here's a little better higher ISO Representation BlackTop. 1250 ISO on this one. I think its pretty clean.

Very nice capture.

Thanks. Appreciate that.

Thanks for showing the high ISO performance of D7100 (which I got very recently) ...

Nice picture that needs leveling.

yes...the picture is very nice....but a little bit lopsided. Easy to fix though.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll check that out.

Billy, nice shot. I think cropping the top was ok. I wouldn't have cropped the bottom because I felt that what the bird us standing on adds to the shot, and you've lost that. Just my view. Goos shot though

Wait till you put a prime on the 7100..you will see a tremendous difference. .
