my sons general view was that overall its a spot on super sensitive camera and sensor and is possibly to finely tuned ,leading to operator induced errors ,a statement i fully go along with .

the only thing that is bothering me now is ,is it taking the fun out of the photography that i do .i think the answer is possibly yes .and then is it worth sticking with such a complex piece of machinery or just take a step back and enjoy what i do instead with another brand or model o.Oo.O
Problem is what would you go to if not a D7100 ?
Back to a D7000 or D300.
I guess you need DX for the extra reach for the birds.
If Nikon pull their finger out we should get information on the D400 this year!.


I'll bring you a low use D300 (<10000 actuations) with battery pack if you want to swap in September. ;-)
