BEST DX DSLR camera out there, even beats the 600 and 610. Absolutely incredible, get one! I did.

This video backs up exactly what you’ve said, Ken!

[@cessealbeach]

I had the D7100 for about 2 months now, your presentation is just perfect Thanks

[@BandH]

That is a MeFoto model. We carry a full line of MeFoto photo tripods at B&H, with different sizes, etc., to suit your specific needs. Thanks for watching.

[@gendo1]

Larry as an owner of a d7000 I love this video of the advanced model. This unbiased no BS approach makes me a total fan. Thanks again for this great video!

[@brianminkc]

Its a big improvement. I had a D7000 and the images from the D7100 are VERY sharp. I was blown away by the quality of the stills on this camera. I also love the HDR and bracketing features on this over my D7000. I shoot a lot of HDR and this camera is going to give me awesome results. This truly is a professional grade camera... maybe not the best choice for extreme shooting in bad weather or rough or dusty locations... but other than that .... its a wonderful camera.

[@BandH]

Very welcome and thank you for watching.

[@BandH]

We have not had any D7100?s returned to us with any oil issues. This is in fact the first I've heard of the camera in relation to such an issue. There have been reports of this problem in the past on other Nikon models, but is no longer an issue at this point. If you do happen to receive a model with any type of defect, you are covered both by Nikon's warranty as well as B&H's 30 day return policy. - Yossi

+Anas P.S The main lens on the camera in this video is the Nikon AF-S DX 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II zoom. Others were also used for the review. Thanks for watching.

[@BandH]

Most welcome and thank you for watching.

[@jacstoner]

I just purchased the D7100 and am just starting to learn all the wonderful features. Have been using a D90 for the past couple of years and have been happy with it overall but just wanted to take the next step. (I am keeping the D90 as my back up, though!) This video was VERY helpful to me and I sincerely appreciate the quality of the presentation!

[@BandH]

The AF-assist will work in the P, A, S, and M modes with the camera. Depending on what focusing mode you use may be causing the problem. Make sure the camera is set to AF-S or AF-A focusing modes. In the owner?s manual, pages 322 illustrate the modes the feature can and cant be used in, and page 301 will indicate lenses that the AF-assist feature does not work with. If you still have problems, I?d recommend you contact Nikon directly for further support as you may have a defect. - Yossi

[@ROBERTKINGOFMAINE]

You did a great job on this review. It is obvious that you have put a lot of work into speaking to people. Your knowledge of this camera is outstanding. You did your homework!

[@Jeva89]

sold! thank you very much for this great review

[@BandH]

We look forward to your visit and greeting you personally.

[@BandH]

Sigma offers a nice 18-250mm lens that would cover all of your needs for landscapes, sports and general use. Tamron also offers a nice 18-270mm lens which would give you even a bit more reach on your further away subjects. - Yossi

[@TheMartine]

Great review. This was just that little extra I needed to decide to go for det D7100 :)

[@BandH]

Yes, it records 1080p HD video in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, MOV formats. It records audio in Linear PCM format and has an option to accept an external mic. - Yossi

[@BandH]

Larry Becker responds: For the review, I had Active-D off and the other two settings on for that test, but I just redid my test and I turned off all three features (Auto Distortion Control, Active-D, and High ISO NR) and I even set it to capture just large JPEGs (no RAW) and I got pretty much the same performance. Seven shots at the highest speed and then it dropped to about 2 and a half shots a second as the buffer cleared at that rate. I was using a 400x Class 10 SD card. Hope that helps.

[@BandH]

The camera does not have any built-in intervelometer or time-lapse features. You could opt for the Vello Shutterboss remote trigger options, which do have an intervelometer option. We feature the Vello Shutterboss under the "Accessories" tab on the product link for the camera on our site. - Yossi

[@hugoivarsson3523]

Just bought my first camera nikon d90 and ive already been thinking about this as the next upgrade although d90 is such a great camera for beginners who are aiming to be PROs later on :)

[@sanjunilugal]

your reviews make a grt difference :) thanks for the video ...

[@BandH]

Yes, the D5200 has an optical low pass filter. Most DSLR's have this. The omission of the OLPF?s in cameras such as the D7100 and D800e is a relatively new trend in sensor/camera design. A few companies are starting to offer models with some variation of this design concept. For now I wouldn't say it's a make or break type of feature, the cameras with the OLPF's are still plenty sharp. - Yossi

[@jmpianoboy]

Just had to get camera and I'm not disappointed :) Best Crop Sensor camera in the market right now.

[@lucain1960]

Desceraría que vídeo tan interesante como este se subieran en español, pensando también para los que no hablan el idioma ingles, pero si tienen el nivel adquisitivo para comprar estos equipos. Gracias.

[@fendrou]

Yes! NIKON D7100 does have an intervalometer. You can find it in the SHOOTING MENU. Interval timer shooting • Choose start time Now Start time [hh:mm] • Interval [hh:mm:ss] • Select no. of times*no. of shots [000] x [0] = 0001 • Start Off On

[@BandH]

Optical quality-wise, the Nikon D7100 is only slighty better than the Nikon D5100. The main differences between the two is the D7100 has better focusing with both more focusing points and more cross-type points to assist low- light or difficult focusing issues. For wedding photography, the 18-105mm lens would be more flexible for wedding photography as it has more framing options being a zoom lens. For a better option, the Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM Zoom Lens for Nikon would work.

[@BandH]

Both cameras have similar image quality, but the Nikon D7100 has been tested and stated as having slightly better image quality, especially in regards to low-light performance. However, the Sony Alpha SLT-A77 would be the faster camera and would be better for HD video needs.

[@VairalKE]

Great review.

[@sittingdull]

Amazingly through review. Thanks!

[@VBVTV]

I referenced your review on my video "Movie Making Cameras from $600 to $1,000 Part l in 2020". Thanks for your review!

[@anymanusa]

wow, what a great review! best i've seen yet, and I've seen a bunch!

[@patrickjn77]

Nice Review. I have this and the D7000 and they are both very stable cameras. I prefer them to some of the older full frame!

[@santixayyasith6584]

Thank you very much for your nice review. I just bought it and learn how to take the best photos and video also

[@xero925]

I was waiting for this review!!!! I am traveling to NY this winter to buy one from your store!!!

[@broer61]

on my d7100, I can do time-lapse photography, via the shooting menu. I have not used it yet, but in the manual, it is explained and I just made some test sequence, you specify the time between pihotographs, the number of frames to shoot, and the number of shots per interval.

[@gkprasath89]

Excellent review

[@Sigmattic1914]

Yes it does! The D7100 is the only Nikon Pro-sumer camera that doesn't if I'm not mistaken.

[@BandH]

The D7100 is a replacement for the D7000 camera, and is a better model camera. The D600 is basically a full-frame version of the D7100. The features between the two are very similar, the size of the sensor/format being the main difference. - Yossi

[@151aaaa]

So very happy am I with my D7000 thank you....:D

[@gingfuentes2351]

thanks for your video, i just want to know, what kind lens i would use for wide angle and landscape, sports, and indoor? what would you say about sigma?

[@hawg427]

I wonder why Nikon choose not to include the U1 & U@ settings on their D-800 & 800E cameras?

[@omarelwaily3116]

Perfect review

[@1ez86]

I had similar burst limitations on my D7000 but found that if I disable auto distortion control I can fire off nearly unlimited high speed bursts. I believe Active D-lighting and high iso noise reduction would limit your bursts as well. I would be interested in knowing if any of these settings were enabled on the D7100 in this video.

[@maiqui72]

Larry si so funn and easy to see your reviews and about info that u share exelent , Thank u larry :o)

[@BandH]

The D7100 would be a very good upgrade from the D5100. The D5200 is more of an update of the D5200 and not so much of a step up or out of the entry-level category. If you are looking for an upgrade, then go for the D7100. - Yossi

[@duanemcclun]

I mostly shoot wildlife, action, and photojournalism photos. I currently use 2 D3300 and 1 D300. I'm wondering if there's a reason the ISO goes to 6400 on the D7100 and 12,800 for the D3300. I should add that I recently bought a D7100 (2 weeks ago) and it's sitting in the box because I don't like the lock on the top left dial and to get to the pre-set scenes takes several steps to get to with the D7100 where it was quicker with the D3300. I wish I would have looked for A D300s instead of the D7100.

[@YoRocky89]

Great video. I just have 3 questions. 1. Is best to shoot RAW, or one of the other 2 options, like (RAW) + JPEG fine? 2. Which ISO settings work best from Auto to Hi 0.3? 3. Is it best to set the High ISO NR option as normal or high? Thank you.

[@TheBlackWings0]

thanks a lot :) very helpful review :D

[@appacana]

Nikon did it again!

[@hilfsil]

Does the D5200 have optical low pass filter in the sensor? Just wondering if it really makes that much difference when choosing a camera. Thanks

[@sighland]

Thanks for a wonderful, educated review in clear English.. cheers..

[@kiniuber]

will buy it soon :)

[@essellar]

In English-speaking North America (only), the accepted pronunciation is "Nigh-kon" (a "long" i); elsewhere it would have a "short" i sound. That pronunciation was established even before there was official distribution in NA by American servicemen and photojournalists bringing the earlier rangefinders back with them. Even Nikon uses the "Nigh-kon" pronunciation in their English North American promotional materials.

[@jcc2k6]

Hi great review, I recently bought this camera and I have a question, when I shoot in S and A mode the Af assist lamp doesn't light, but in automatic mode it does, it made difficult some times to focus in low light situations, please help me with that. Thank you very much, by the way Im looking forward to visit your super store in NYC. Juan

[@guyinsf]

I'm trying to upgrade from my old failing Nikon D80. Is the D7100 considered a step up in quality for Nikon? Thanks!

[@YoRocky89]

Great review. ;) My only nitpick about the camera is that there's no LCD cover, but otther than that, it's great. :)

[@tomjonsson4786]

What kind of lens is mounted on the camera in the video on the table? :)

[@inavarro807]

this is a great camera. i upgraded from a d3100 and i have to say big step up.

[@raechelmariephoto3499]

How did you like upgrading? I have a d3100 right now and I'm thinking about upgrading to this one as well, do you like it?

[@inavarro807]

+Raechels Vlogs I liked the d3100 very much. I went to a d7100 its a much better camera. Good luck

[@Harvestcreativemedia]

Can anyone help me to find a suitable lens for my Nikon camera? I use the camera mainly for video and looking for a wide angle lens which is good in low light with VR option and also which can cover wide area in focus. I already have a 18-105 lens. Thanks in advance.

[@Watchthekettle]

i have the nikon d5100 is the d7100 a good upgrade or the d5200

[@lynnemichelle7977]

So would you say that the Sony a77 is better that Nikon d7100 when it comes to low light and extreme low light photography? I shoot dancers and theatre, so I'm looking for something that will handle the light without a flash...

[@rajatdixit007]

Hello Thanks for the wonderful review :D If you were to compare this camera with the Pentax k5ii. Which one would be better? I consider myself to be a still photographer. I wont be using video that much. Thank you

[@ZulfiShaikhStudio]

Thanks

[@anasp.s8740]

Which lens have you used for the samples in this video?

[@denverjamesduran2750]

Does it have optical image stabilizer?

[@AlzidjaliSuleiman]

What is better for the crop frame (D7100) , 35mm or 50mm ?

[@MrKickme91]

This camera looks ideal for me. I am looking for an upgrade for my Nikon d60, which requires me to go into the menus to change settings because of no dedicated buttons for iso, image quality, ect. This camera appear to have this but is there a camera like this with a tilting LCD screen??

[@BandH]

I don?t know of a Nikon option off the top of my head. The Canon T5i would have dedicated buttons for ISO and various settings, along with a vari-angle LCD, though. *Christina* [e-mail]

[@alexturley377]

How to download this for future reference

[@oscarcamargo734]

It seems that the D7100 has problems with oil spot coming from the shutter. What is your experience and recommendations since many people try to clean them professionally and end up returning the camera because it is a repetitive problem (so they claim)

[@designs77]

wow good review lots of info !

[@WorldNews98]

During the rocord video, I can select the aperture and iso ??

[@KZHX]

Can you change the 'bracket' button to ISO function?

[@fuxing88]

I got my Nikon D7100 w/18-140mm per your suggestion (instead of 18-300m); shall i order either a 70-300mm or a 50-300mm for long range? Does VR make such a difference? Shall I order it with VR? Thanks for advising.

[@bikinibottomxxx]

hi guys!! can anyone help me?? I am torn between 70d and d7100, I just want a good image quality especially for portraits and food photography. So, which camera should I buy? thanks.

[@TheBlackWings0]

im really confused is it better than the d7000 and the d600 ?

[@emilioguzmanor]

I just bought one but only the body, and I don't know wich lens to buy. Any recommendations for something cheap and good quality? Prime lenses are the first option but I want a zoom

[@BandH]

+emilioguzmanor - Below are links to three recommended lenses for you to consider using with your D7100 camera body which are affordable and useful for normal day to day work. - Yossi bhpho.to/1qKgDtI bhpho.to/KfAS4j bhpho.to/1jFr3cO

[@PineapplesAndPandas]

Probably should upgrade from my D2x now...

[@xray111xxx]

Thank you for video presentation of the Nikon D7100. I know it is few years old, but that doesn't bother me too much. Much to like. 24.1 MP Sensor CMOS. Dual Control Dials, Magnesium alloy body, etc. It is very attractive, and since I waited for the D7200 to come I should be able to save some on the D7100. I am looking for most bang for the buck on the body, and want to concentrate mostly on the lenses. But I am torn losing the dual dial control dial setup going with say a D3300. Is the trade off worth going to a newer technology over the older D7100. Again my plan is modest investment on the body, but more on the lenses. I was even considering a D7000. Thank you for your assistance.

[@ryanjosephdaley6723]

I have the D7100. It's marvelous. I highly recommend it. Good luck!

[@VTREX2010]

Thank you. But I have another question. What do you think about the Nikon D5200?

[@ROBERTKINGOFMAINE]

I love the 1.3X mode in that I can effectively double my 300 2.8 to a 600 2.8!........and still have a very large file. I do not mind the limited buffer. It seems to me that that buffer is sufficient. I am never one to shoot more than 3-5 or 6 shot bursts......never. I rarely even do that. The buffer limitation is miniscule. I want this camera!

[@ProductKingReviews]

I'm torn between this camera (Nikon D7100) and the Cannon T5i. It will be my first DSLR camera. I don't care about the price difference. I really like the T5i touch screen but I really care about final image quality. Which would you recommend? And for the one you recommend can I learn the settings to take good pictures in about 5 days?

[@juanalvarado7794]

I got this today and this is my first DSLR and the menus are overwhelming lol I love the camera though 😃

[@bronevik03]

Отличная камера для фотолюбителя.

[@shipleyshipster]

@BHPhotoVideoProAudio In this video you say the Nikon D7100 can output video live via the HDMI cable to view and record on an external device. Does that mean it could be used as a webcam as well?

[@marvintalatala4608]

Hi Sir Larry, Im torn between D7100 and eos6D, any advice??

[@kelvincheu]

Can you explain what is "Auto distortion control"? Thanks

[@milosmilivojevicphoto]

I had problem with audio noise with external microphones. Can you help me to fix it. I tried with manual control but noise is still there.Can you tell me which kind of microfone to buy for interviews?

[@BandH]

For this, we would need a bit more information. If you send an email letting us know what external mic you have tried, what types of environments you are shooting in, and what if any external recorders you have used, we would be more than happy to help you trouble shoot and offer some suggestions. You can send an email to [e-mail] *Christina*

[@Delsol27]

Just bought Nikon D7100 camera. My question is I already-turn of the camera and I sill information on control panel?

[@BandH]

This is normal and how the camera is designed to function. - Yossi

[@kurtthomsen5348]

between nie D7100 and the 70D, wich camera has the best build quality?

[@BandH]

+Kurt Thomsen - Both are of a magnesium alloy body with seals to protect against dust and general weather/moisture. I would say they constructed in a similar level of durability. - Yossi

[@bmbpdk]

Hi. Will the built in flash be able to trigger a SB-700 speedlight?

[@BandH]

Yes, as the built-in flash inside the Nikon D7100 DSLR camera can be used as a Commander/Master flash for the Nikon i-TTL CLS system, it would be able to wirelessly trigger the Nikon SB-700 Speedlight Flash for both automatic exposure and manual exposure.

[@bmbpdk]

[@Raptor50aus]

Would I see much improvement in image quality with a D610 compared to the D7100? I usually takes pics of Birds outdoors in sunny conditions

[@BandH]

The D7100 is an excellent camera, and I don?t know how much difference you will notice in the quality of your images going from it to the D610 if you are shooting wildlife outdoors in sunny conditions. The smaller format sensor might actually be an advantage for this, as with the crop factor, your telephoto lenses appear more telephoto allowing for more reach, which can be key for taking photos of birds. Depending on your lenses, upgrading lenses could provide a larger difference in the quality of images you are getting. *Christina* [e-mail]

[@kimberlyevans6472]

I want to buy a camera. I don't know much about camera's but I'm thinking on buying one since I love to dress up and take pictures. What camera should I get that would be ideal for a beginner like me.

[@BandH]

If you are looking to purchase your first DSLR, you might look at the Nikon D3300. It?s one of Nikon's introductory DSLRs, and would be extremely user friendly. It would still have great image quality. Otherwise, the D5300 would be another great option. It would be a step above the D3300 in Nikon's line-up, but would still be one of their more user friendly introductory DSLRs. The D5300 will have a few more advanced features and a bit better image quality and low light performance. That being said, for a first DSLR, it would be hard to go wrong with either. *Christina* [e-mail] bhpho.to/1B6iKB5

I have been unable to get an answer about a problem I'm having with my Nikon D7100 not always saving pictures to the SD cards. I'm using Lexar SD XC 2 64 GB Professional 1000x 150MB/s cards

[@BandH]

I would recommend submitting your inquiry concerning your issue either to B&H Photo by e-mailing prophoto {at} bhphoto.com, or you may contact Nikon directly either by calling them with your issue at 1-800-NIKON-US (1-800-645-6687) 9AM-8PM EST, Monday to Friday, or by e-mail using the link on their website on the link included below. As no question is listed above, and I do not know the age of your memory card, the best I can recommend would be to either try re-formatting your memory card in your camera before your next usage, and if that does not work, you may need to replace your memory card. The Nikon D7100 was originally released in 2013, and if the camera (and memory card) was purchased soon after its release, it may be the age of the card or the number of save/delete/reformat cycles that have been cycled on the card. As stated, all of this is simply guessing as no question was listed, so I would recommend sending your inquiry to one of the aforementioned contact points to see if they may have more information. bit.ly/2pQPr7V
