24.1 MP DX DSLR Kit

The Nikon D7100 body pairs a 24.1 megapixel CMOS sensor with the EXPEED 3 processor and no optical low-pass filter. A 3.2 inch 1,229k-dot LCD and pentaprism viewfinder with 100 percent coverage support precise composition. The included NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR lens covers wide to telephoto ranges.

Who This Suits and Who It Does Not

Enthusiasts needing high resolution and a versatile zoom for everyday shooting will find this kit capable. Buyers who want more reach beyond 105mm or a faster constant aperture should look at other lenses. Videographers requiring 4K recording or advanced focus peaking will need a different system.

Sensor Resolution and Filter Design

The 24.1 megapixel DX-format CMOS sensor omits an optical low-pass filter to maximise detail capture. This specification determines the level of fine detail available for large prints or heavy cropping.

Questions about this item

Will the 24.1 MP CMOS sensor need cleaning beyond the built-in image sensor cleaning system?

The camera includes an automatic image sensor cleaning function that activates at startup and shutdown; for stubborn dust a manual clean with a blower or swab may be needed later.

What limits continuous shooting at 6.0 fps for long bursts?

The buffer fills after roughly 51 RAW frames or 100 JPEGs, so sustained bursts slow once the buffer is full and the card write speed takes over.

How hot or noisy does the body get when recording 1080p video for extended periods?

The magnesium-alloy body dissipates heat well; the sensor runs warm but not hot, and the only audible sound is the quiet VR lens motor during focus adjustments.
