just had another update from my friend who has the d7100 ,saying when it nails the shot its amazing ,BUT he is not getting as many keepers as he was with the d7000 ,starting to wonder if its him or the autofocus .
as i said before this is a guy who knows the model range well and who's pictures first swayed me to the d7000
In some ways that doesnt surprise me. All things being equal its a known fact that when you increase the pixel density it requires an improvement in technique to maximise that detail.
For me the D1X 6mp to D2X 12mp change resulted in a lot less keepers. Changing to the D3 12mp re-established the previous keeper rate...and some!
I feel there there is always a relearning curve that we need to follow when increasing pixels.
For me the D7000 is acceptable or rather I have probably learnt to use its higher pixel density. But its the responsiveness that is a step down from the pro bodies that concerns me.
