The editors didn't like
Average lowlight performance
Average continuous shooting speed
No aperture adjustment in Live Mode
No zebra patterns
Slight tendency to overexpose photos
Buffer fills very quickly when shooting 14-bit RAW images
Which limits high speed shooting
Almost flush OVF eyepiece and awkward placement of AE-L/AF-L button can result in photographers hitting their thumb again...
Frequent and severe overexposure
AWB not perfect under artificial light
Bizarre Auto ISO
Indistinct ISO button
Very poor liveview
Aperture locked in video mode
NoiseReduction forced at ISO 800
Lens correction slow down camera
Level difficult to se
While the image quality is quite good
It's not significantly better than that of the D7100's cheaper sibling
The D5200. And the lack of aperture control in movie mode gets a facepalm
Limited burst shooting in Raw mode. On the heavy side. Some image noise at ISO 3200 and above. Lacks built-in GPS. No PC Sync socket

Noise at high ISOs

Slower focusing performance when all of the points are selected (auto)
No aperture control in video mode
Focusing points don't go to edges
Poor placement of video button
Movie capture still cumbersome
Beware of noise in 1.3x mode
Lack of OLPF makes little difference to image quality
Poor continuous RAW shooting
Poor Full-time-servo AF in Live view
Need accessories for Wi-Fi and GPS.
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

Despite the rise of complex mirrorless cameras such as Panasonic's Lumix GH3, the Nikon D7100 remains a great bang for your buck. While larger than the GH3, it feels just right in the hand and manages the weight of big lenses nicely. We spent quite a bit ...

While it's still a great prosumer dSLR, the D7100 may only be worth the extra cash if you need a faster Nikon right now.

The Nikon D7100 is a worthy successor to the D7000 and a sufficiently capable camera to fill the vacancy at the top end of Nikon's DX range for all but the pro sports photographers or studio strobists out there. Perhaps understandably, a lot of the at...
The new Nikon D7100 builds on the considerable success of the 2 1/2 year old D7000 camera principally by significantly increasing the image resolution whilst maintaining outstanding quality for a DX sensor, implementing the same cutting-edge 51-point aut...
Superb LCD screen, responsive, excellent specifications, accurate AWB system, intuitive metering system, high degree of customisation offered
Processing times, locking buttons make dials fiddly, image noise, AF could be faster with kit lens, some aliasing artefacts
The Nikon D7100 is perhaps one of the most complete enthusiast DSLRs we've seen to date, with an abundance of functionality packed into a reasonably compact body. It's certainly a more significant improvement than certain other recently updated DSLRs, ...
