Went out shooting the new camera for the first time today, and I can tell you this is a great camera. First with all those magapixels cropping is a breeze, this is cropped slightly for comp and is still a 21.3 million megapixel photo. The autofocus is much improved over the d7000, d5100 etc etc. I love the auto ISO function it allows me to choose max ISO and the lowest shutter speed I want and will keep the setting between those settings.And for us bird and wildlife shooters the 1.3x crop mode is amazing almost doubling the length of your lens with the 1.5 crop sensor in the camera still giving you a 16 million megapixel photo.Ok enough about the camera .This was shot in a medical centers parking lot in one of the many flowering fruit trees.

Great background, nice touch with the flowers on the branch, and one beautiful tiny bird! Razor sharp eye. So nicely done, Wade.
Your excitement about the new D7100 is catching and brings a smile to my face!

Wade, you sure make me wish I could invest in the d7100. I'm happy with my d7000 though.
Great photo Wade! The eye is so sharp and intense! I love the background, and the blooms set it off well.
