[QUOTE="Nathan Lanni, post: 333698, member: 14629"] [b]Re: 610 vs 7100[/b] It's funny, but I've been thinking about going the other direction. I currently have a d7100 and want to transition to full frame. Hope I don't repeat what other have said, but here's my take. I'm a bit concerned about 3 things with the d610: slower flash synch (200 vs 250), slower max shutter speed (4000 vs 8000) and the autofocus system. Like, you I do landscapes/architecture so I'm hoping they won't have much of an impact. On the other hand the Image Quality and low light capability of the d610 are better than the d7100. People say ISO 1600 is the max with the d7100 but I find my starts to crap out at 800. So the d610 would be a step up for me. Going from a dx to fx, it my understanding the d600/d610 39 focus points are fairly close together in the center of the screen, whereas the d7100 51 points cover more of the screen.

The other really big issue for me is just about any lens IQ is much better on Nikon's FX cameras. [U]This is what I mean:[/U] DXO rating for the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28mm f/1.8G fitted to a d7100 is 21. THAT SAME LENS fitted to a d610 is rating at 32 by DXO. I'm sure there's plenty of people here more intelligent than me who can explain or debunk why that's so, but I figure my IQ would jump dramatically by going full frame - for several reasons.
