[QUOTE="alfaholic, post: 352607, member: 13066"] Thank you all. Yesterday I picked up my new D7100. I will open a new theme about it in the appropriate section, but I will share some of my observations from the first 24 hours of usage, so if anyone needs another opinion it will be here. The body it self does not look much different than D7000, buttons feel different, they wobble little bit and command dials are lighter, but nothing to serious. AF confirmation sound is different and it makes you feel like AF is much faster, very clever Nikon. :) That 1.3 crop mode is very nice, it can be turned on and off just by pressing the FN button, so it is convenient for someone who does not have big zoom, 15.4 megapixels is still good enough, actually I can not see any big difference if compared to 24 megapixels. Low light quality is somewhere equal to D7000, just I still need to adapt to this new sensor, but sometimes I have feeling that D7000 was better with noise and grain. I did not have problems with banding yet, but we will see in the future. I like to raise the shadows so very soon it will show how bad it is. OK button zoom to focus point when reviewing images is brilliant. Display is very good, bright and clear, much better than the one on D7000 which had some yellowish tint. I can not see that D7100 is initially sharper, but as for moire, it is the same as D7000 as far as I can see. I decided to upgrade because of 2 year warranty, and much better AF, and I got both. Last night under bad yellow light this camera did not hesitate even without assistant light, and each time the focus is on the right place, not 20 cm at the back, not 20 cm at front like D7000 was doing in almost 40% of the shots taken in the same conditions. I still need to play with it and learn to exploit all of it, but for now I can say that this camera is better in every aspect than D7000, but in a very small extent, so for me the AF speed and accuracy is worth the upgrade, while everything else is just a bonus. I will write more in the appropriate section for D7100. Thank you all... [/QUOTE]
