Finally we have a new DX camera. It is the D7000 replacement and is called the D7100. http://nikonrumors.com/2013/02/20/nikon-d7100-announcement.aspx/ http://chsvimg.nikon.com/lineup/dslr/d7100/pdf/d7100_8p.pdf

pretty good spec jk ,been reading it up for the last half hour including the dp review ,the only negative point at the moment is the price ,but that usually drops fairly quickly as we have seen .love the idea of the 1.3x crop mode .long overdue for us wildlife boys . plus the double lock on the command dial ,one of the most irritating features of the d7000 was the dial moving .suppose i had better start being nicer to the wife now christmas is coming LOL

It looks good, as blackfox said the 1.3 crop mode is useful. the only thing I haven't been able to find is the buffer capacity.

Buffer capacity seems to be missing from the Nikon brochure but it may be that they have skipped over it as it depends on the plethora of image sizes. Movie max time is 29mins 59 secs.

or really just left it out in fear of a bad reaction the buffer is the big decider for wildlife jk .the d7000 is sadly lacking and if the 7100 has the same buffer no matter what else it does it will not be up to the job .I.E i took a burst of approaching swan shots the other week with the d300s and got 21-2 shots 18 of these in focus the last 3 or 4 were to close to focus but it still took the shots .the d7000 would have run out of steam at 7 shots then possibly got a couple at the end ??. so if this is the end of the hundreds series of dx cameras nikon have well and truly shot themselves in the foot  in fact just had a look at the dp reviews forum and there giving it a buffer of 7 shots ,some pundits saying more in 1.3 crop mode .there giving it a real bad slating on there .i suppose its a wait and see job really

No cant find any info on the frame buffer for the D7100 but the D600 and D5200 have 24MP sensors so probably will have a similar buffering capacity (I guess). (D600 = RAW 22 frames, Large JPG 57 frames) (D5200 = RAW 8 frames, Large JPG 35 frames). So on that basis I'd say (D7100 = RAW 15 frames, Large JPG 45 frames) *** NOTICE THIS IS A GUESTIMATE!!!!

right actually found it in another review here http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/nikon-d7100/nikon-d7100A.HTM but if you want a quick digest its at full resolution buffer is 8 shots in 14 bit RAW or 33 shots in J-PEG ,however if you switch to the crop mode this nearly doubles to a buffer of 14 shots RAW or 73 shots J-PEG . my initial thoughts were to throw my arms up in dismay but thinking about it as a wildlife shooter the full resolution is ideal for feeder birds ,static slow moving grounded birds/mammals /macro etc . and the crop mode is ideal for birds in flight and distant fast moving mammals where you need that extra reach and larger bursts .the only drawback i can see is moving from one to the other and if it has U1 and U2 settings ( i think it has ) then its easy to switch quickly ,starting to sound desirable
