In the course of preparing our in-depth review of the 24MP Nikon D7100, we’re exploring the image quality ramifications of Nikon’s decision to forgo an optical low pass filter (OLPF). As part of this process, we shot the D7100 alongside the Nikon D5200, which also uses a 24MP APS-C sensor, but includes an OLPF. We have just added both studio and real world comparisons between the two DSLRs to our hands-on preview, along with our standard resolution page.

We’ve just published our 25-page, in-depth review of the Nikon D7100. Sitting atop Nikon’s APS-C DSLR lineup, the D7100 offers a 24MP CMOS sensor sans AA filter and a 51-point AF system that borrows heavily from the D4. In terms of ergonomics and handling the D7100 will feel familiar to D7000 users looking to upgrade, but it also inherits recent changes we’ve seen from Nikon in the D600 and D800 models. Is the D7100 a compelling option for enthusiasts tempted by the recent wave of affordable full frame DSLRs? Click the links below to find out.

Just Posted: We’ve had a chance to get our hands on the Nikon D7100 – the company’s latest mid-range DSLR. The D7100 looks a lot like the popular D7000 but has been completely overhauled internally. Central to its feature set is a 24MP CMOS sensor with no optical low-pass filter, promising high resolution captures. It also gains a 51-point autofocus system and 1.3x crop mode for both stills and video capture, amongst other upgrades.

Nikon has announced the D7100 – a 24MP mid-range, enthusiast-focused APS-C DSLR. The D7100 promises high resolution by making do without an optical low-pass filter in front of its 24MP CMOS sensor. It gains a more sophisticated 51-point autofocus system and a 7fps 1.3x cropped shooting mode that provides a 2x crop compared to a 35mm system. The D7100 has a recommended price of $1,599/£1,299/€1,399 with 18-105mm F3.5-5.6 VR lens.

Nikon posts sample images from new D7100

Nikon has just posted a small six-image sample gallery from the new D7100. The D7100 is a 24MP, APS-C DSLR that does not feature an optical low-pass filter on its sensor. Theoretically, this should increase detail resolution. As well as an unconventional sensor, the D7100 offers a 51-point AF system and a 1.3X crop mode in stills and video capture. The images that Nikon has posted were taken in .NEF Raw mode with the D7100 fitted with the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4G ED VR and AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR.

Although there are only six images in Nikon’s D7100 gallery, image quality seems very impressive. Interestingly though, the biggest question about the D7100’s image quality – whether the lack of OLPF makes its sensor more prone to moiré – remains unanswered. These samples do not contain the sort of high-frequency, inorganic detail that typically induce the problem. They certainly provide an encouraging look at the new camera’s potential though, and we’re looking forward to putting the D7100 through our usual gamut of studio and real-world testing as soon as possible. Until then, check out our hands-on preview.
