The new Nikon D7100 DSLR features a 24.1MP DX-format CMOS sensor and an EXPEED 3 image processor, which work together to produce high resolution still imagery and full HD 1080i/p video in multiple frame rates. Movie recording is also benefitted through the inclusion of both external microphone and headphone jacks as well as the ability to manual adjust exposure settings during recording. A notable improvement in image sharpness and resolution is afforded through the removal of the optical low-pass filter, and a 51-point autofocus system with 15 cross-type sensors ensures quick and precise focusing. The large 3.2″ 1,229k-dot LCD monitor allows live view monitoring and image review and the optical pentaprism viewfinder incorporates an OLED information display and provides 100% field coverage. The EXPEED 3 image processor also provides a wealth of speed throughout the camera system and enables a full-resolution continuous shooting rate of 6fps, a 1.3x DX crop continuous shooting rate of 7fps and an expandable maximum sensitivity to ISO 25600. The new Spot White Balance features permits selective control over custom white balance settings and built-in HDR automatically composites bracketed frames to produce a single image with an extended dynamic range. The D7100 is compatible with the WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter to enable wireless connectivity and the ability to instantly transfer imagery to iOS and Android mobile devices. Housing all of the imaging technology is a redesigned body that features magnesium alloy top and rear covers for increased durability and moisture- and weather-resistance. The D7100 is available as a body only or in a kit with the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5l.6G ED VR lens.
