Key Advantages

The Nikon D7100's high-resolution 24.1-megapixel sensor delivers sharp, detailed images without the softening effect of an optical low-pass filter. Its 51-point autofocus system with 15 cross-type points ensures superior focusing accuracy and speed in various shooting scenarios. The EXPEED 3 processor enables fast burst shooting, appealing to action and sports photographers. Robust build quality with environmental sealing increases durability for outdoor use. Dual SD card slots provide versatile storage management and backup options. Full HD video recording with manual controls enhances creative flexibility for videographers.

Limitations

The absence of built-in Wi-Fi connectivity limits wireless image transfer and remote control capabilities, requiring external accessories. While the sensor resolution is high, the D7100 lacks a touchscreen interface, which is common in more modern cameras for ease of use. Video recording is capped at Full HD, lacking 4K support seen in newer models. Battery life, while decent, may be insufficient for extended shooting without backups. The camera's size and weight are larger than entry-level DSLRs, which might impact portability. Some users may find the menu system complex compared to more streamlined interfaces on competitor products.
