Interesting review. What's intriguing to me is that one of my biggest disincentives for getting a Nikon D-7100 would be the 24-megapixel files. I've seen enough (and these reviewers seem to agree) samples to be convinced that going over 16 megapixels in APS-C, with or without anti-aliasing filter, buys you no more real resolution. I'd be interested in trying out the Nikon AF, though. The K-5 had problems dealing with atmospheric haze in the alps a couple of weeks ago. Perhaps the Nikon would have fared no better under these admittedly difficult conditions nut it would have been nice to find out. Then again, I was *really* grateful for the K-5's weather sealing many times during the trip (and made people with other cameras quite envious, I might add!) -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
