I'm ready to make the move up from a P&S to a DSLR and I'm close to buying the D7100. It looks like it has a lot of stuff I can grow into as I learn more about photography and move up from the auto mode (I really don't want to live in auto mode forever!). The only drawback to the D7100 for me is that it doesn't have an articulating viewfinder. I'll probably never use video so that isn't an issue but I thought the swiveling viewfinder would be really nice for difficult shots. Any thoughts on that? I really don't want to step down to the D5200 so I'm wondering if the articulating viewfinder is more of a gimmick, or something prone to breaking, than anything else and if I'm crazy to let it be a deal breaker.</p></blockquote><p></p>
