[QUOTE="AC016, post: 157395, member: 9619"] Go with the D7100 if you can. If you compare the 7100 to the D600, the only real benefit you are getting with the 600, is slightly better image quality because of the full frame sensor. Other than that, the 7100 is a better camera spec wise: [URL="http://snapsort.com/compare/Nikon-D600-vs-Nikon-D7100"]Nikon D600 vs D7100 - Our Analysis[/URL] That better image quality will most likely not be noticeable with the naked eye. We are talking about a a very slight improvement in dynamic range and better color depth. Again, these are very negligible and i don't think it will be noticed by the naked eye. I think you have to have very specific reasons for going to full frame. As for the folks on DPReview who are saying they think the D7000 still performs better at those posted ISO numbers, they must be dreaming. The noise in the 7100 files will be lower than equal files from the 7000. Again, it may not be noticeable with the naked eye - you will most likely have to pixdel peep a bit. Both cameras are great. If you need to or want to save money, go with the 7000. If you want the best DX camera in Nikons line-up right now, go with the 7100. [/QUOTE]
