I have had the D5200 for a year and half, thinking of moving up to the D7100. Is there a big learning curve coming from the D5200?

I didn't find it too hard. Once you get the hang of it you will be quicker changing your ISO, shutter speed, and aperture.

Not at all. I think that if you have used any recent Nikon for a year, you will have no problem stepping up to the D7100. It's very similar, menu wise and you will enjoy the user defined settings, the dual memory slots, etc. The biggest problem I had moving up from a D80 was the zoom in and zoom out buttons on the back were reversed, and I had to read up on all the new focusing modes and settings. It's a great camera.

I can't decide between the SD750 and the Cannon 1100..the 1100 is a better price and has image stabilization, but I love the look and feel of the 750 as well as the way the pictures look..have you used the 1100 at all? What made you go for this camera a year after it was released once u dropped it the first time? did you not want to upgrade?

This simply means that there's a slightly upgraded model of the D7000 which is D7100 :=)

I had the Nikon for 4 months now and I like it. It is pretty sharp, not too heavy and works great. The VR works well too, it makes a difference. Here is a link to some photos with a D7000 which has a similar sensor to the D5100. http://www.pixoto.com/ralhaj/recent hope this helps

I use a d3200. I think it should be comparable to d7100. I can use f4 and still get good focus depth. A nice thing with this lens is that it is about as sharp for all apertures. Many lenses drop in sharpness at wide apertures (even just under f8), but not so with this one. I wonderful lens, fantastic for portraits of those that behave more naturally when one keeps some distance (like my kids, and birds). I have not felt the need for VR.

Chih, I have a D7100 myself, and it did not work. My suggestion is to pay a little more and buy the Amazon Basics version. It costs a little more, but it worked perfectly.

I sold 2 years ago, after bought D2Xs, I was scaring to buy Nikon pro camera. Now I have D3s and D7100. D2Xs is worst I had

I would suggest getting the D610 instead at this point. All those folks that claimed that there Was no serious problem with the sensor on the D600 now have to explain why Nikon has a new model out in just one year. And it only has one area of improvement- the shutter. The shutter was the suspected culprit. Hmmm...

I do. I upgraded from the D90 and I don't regret it for a second. I didn't want to spend the money on a D800 but I wanted a full frame DSLR. The ISO is great on this camera and puts my D90 to shame.

In my opinion, D7100 will give you very nice pictures, and results. The problem is that you will need to star over with your lenses ... but after that, the marriage is complete !

J. Perez --There is a lot of fanboyism going on at the beginning of this thread... and it's passed off as fact to be worse.If you're looking at these two cameras consider your needs. You already have nice canon glass so you may be better served going with the 5d II. What do you shoot? If it's sports I would definitely say lean to the D700 or look at the 7d (or 1d III as you mentioned). I personally think the 5D II has the best IQ of the bunch, but that is an opinion.Really, the two cameras mentioned here are a different beast. It's like comparing mac laptops to windows desktops. First decide if you use your camera more for sports or portraits then decide if you want the canon or nikon. J.

I'm not sure how well on the D5200 but it works great on my d7100, d7000 and d300s.

As far as I have seen, no. I upgraded from the S5200 and use it quite a bit. The camera has all of the features I need for all sorts of photography. Take a look at some of the pics I posted in the customer images section, click on them for description.

I have both the D3200 and a D7100 I use it for both from time to time it works well with both of them.

it's a nikon and it works well. I get almost 500 pics on a charge with a d5200

You might have a lemon. I have the 520 and has no problem with it. Images are sharp and good. I don't have a 200mm+ lens so I haven't tried that. I have tried up to 150mm without any problem.

bumpSimilar situation, have d5100 but heading overseas and lookin for something more portable. Specifically wondering how much the 10.1 megapixel matters in 2012, ie are the internal sensors/processing still enough to offset the low MP count compared to other later models?
