right actually found it in another review here http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/nikon-d7100/nikon-d7100A.HTM

but if you want a quick digest its at full resolution buffer is 8 shots in 14 bit RAW or 33 shots in J-PEG ,however if you switch to the crop mode this nearly doubles to a buffer of 14 shots RAW or 73 shots J-PEG .

my initial thoughts were to throw my arms up in dismay but thinking about it as a wildlife shooter the full resolution is ideal for feeder birds ,static slow moving grounded birds/mammals /macro etc . and the crop mode is ideal for birds in flight and distant fast moving mammals where you need that extra reach and larger bursts .the only drawback i can see is moving from one to the other and if it has U1 and U2 settings ( i think it has ) then its easy to switch quickly ,starting to sound desirable
