[QUOTE="AC016, post: 79803, member: 9619"] [url=http://nikonrumors.com/2012/09/24/nikon-d5100-next-to-be-discontinued.aspx/]Nikon D5100 next to be discontinued? | Nikon Rumors[/url] Our beloved D5100 may be getting discontinued. What is Nikon going to add to this beautiful little DSLR? If they want to keep up with Canon, they are going to have to put a 24mp sensor in there - a le 3200. However, as we all know, MP is really not the most important feature of a camera. Therefore, what could Nikon package into the next model that will really get people to pay attention to it? Here are a few ideas: Touch screen, more MP, more manual controls, a Nikon battery grip as an accessory, a better viewfinder - something closer to 100%, and maybe a built in focus motor. Again, i really don't think the MP are that important. The d5100 already shares the same sensor and processor as the D7K and both cameras take stunnig pictures. The only problem is, is that if Nikon upgrades it to much, then it is running into the D7K.... so perhaps the D7K will get an upgrade??? Hmmmmmmmmmmm...... who said DX was dead?? [/QUOTE]
