Re: The "I just got my D7100" thread - first impressions, chatter, etc.
Okay it was a dark and stormy night - sleet and rain and even some snow. I had to shoot from up in the stands because I didn\'t want to get all wet so I was some distance from the field and much higher up than I usually like to be.
Anyway I wanted to see how the D7100 compared to my old D7000 under some bad high school lights, still shooting jpegs. Overall it looks like a a stop better than the D7000. I could pretty easily shoot at 6400 with the D7100 and get decent shutter speed while that was not possible with the D7000. Also the AF tracked really well in the poor lighting - way fewer misses from the D7100. Kind of noisy so maybe I should shoot raw and clean them up in PP? Never really done that in the past though.
All in all very happy with the D7100 for the kind of shooting I do.
