I am 100% satisfied with the upgrade from D5100 to D7100. At the moment, I consider this camera the best cropped camera in terms of "price-quality" ratio Its pros: I will compare with the younger camera - D5100, with which I switched to this model. In short, the impressions are the most positive. Liked: Bright large viewfinder with 100% frame coverage (versus 90% for the D5100) Two control wheels (versus one for the D5100) Much more comfortable ergonomics Three customizable additional buttons (versus one for the D5100) Additional monochrome display at the top of the case (not available on the D5100) Screwdriver - the camera works with non-autofocus lenses, of which there are a great many for Nikon (the D5100 does not have a screwdriver, so the owner of this camera will either have to use lenses with a built-in focus motor or focus manually) The ability to measure exposure on manual lenses in aperture priority shooting mode (A) (on the D5100 only in manual mode M with manual exposure, usually by trial and error) More flexible settings for all shooting parameters, the ability to configure almost everything using just the buttons, without going into the camera menu. Different cons: Too many megapixels. For a cropped camera, 16 megapixels would be enough. You look, and the "noise" would be less. Although it's not as noisy as some here complain. No more than the D5100, and the D5100 is doing very well with this.
