As the successor to the well-regarded D7000 , the Nikon D7100 has a tough act to follow. It has to offer compelling reasons for current owners to upgrade, while maintaining the attributes that have made the D7000 such a popular enthusiast APS-C DSLR in the first place.
Pros:
- Outstanding low ISO performance in both JPEG and Raw files
- Very good default JPEG settings
- Excellent build quality and very good ergonomics and handling
- Effective auto white balance in a variety of lighting conditions
- Comprehensive camera customization options
- Auto ISO selection can be linked...
Cons:
- Small image buffer severely limits burst capacity in Raw-enabled modes
- Slow AF in live view and video modes (compared to mirrorless APS-C cameras
- No real-time aperture adjustment preview in live view
- Noticeably soft video output
- In video mode
- the 1.3x crop setting produces upsampled output

Nikon D7100 camera
Nikon's D7100 has some big shoes to fill. We've been using a Nikon D7000 since its launch in December 2010, and even now it's one of our go-to camera recommendations. The D7100 is an evolutionary upgrade of our long-standing favourite, but it's a big evolution - a brand new sensor and LCD screen, a...
Pros:
- Excellent resolution and high ISO performance
- Great autofocus
- white balance
- burst mode
- Excellent controls and LCD screen
Cons:

Review: Nikon D7100
The Nikon D7100 is an update to the D7000, topping Nikon's cropped-sensor DSLR range. From the outside, it's hard to distinguish from the D7000, but that's no bad thing – the D7000's controls are one of its strengths. The significant changes are inside.

Nikon D7100
There's a lot to love about the D7100: comprehensive 51-point autofocus - despite the occasional non-focus glitch - is great to use through the large, 100 per cent optical viewfinder and we're big fans of the new 1.3x crop mode too.
Pros:
- Good picture quality
- decent sharpness when on point
- often great autofocus system for all conditions
- 100 per cent viewfinder with focus feedback
- 1.3x crop mode (also works for raw capture)
- long-lasting battery life
- improved LCD screen brightness/quality over D7000
- plenty of quick-access...
Cons:
- Banding present in shadow areas (as per D5200)
- occasionally inaccurate autofocus
- focus wouldn't always confirm
- no touchscreen or vari-angle mount for LCD
- burst mode doesn't live up to its on-paper specification
- effects modes should be more expansive

So there are a few extra things we would have liked to have seen here. On balance, though, we think that the Nikon D7100 is a very nice camera that's enjoyable and rewarding to use.
