Feeling a bit underwhelmed by the reviews on the D7100 compared to the D7000.

Like the D800E it seems the advantage of losing the lowpass filter can only be realised if you use prime or fast lenses. Apparently, and I suppose not surprisingly, you wont see a difference with the kit 18-105 lens.

Given that my main use for this camera would be casual holiday shooting, I have no intention of lugging my heavy expensive glass with it.

The other use for its extra DX 'reach' advantage, might be wildlife, eventing or motorsport ...but the buffer doesnt seem to be top drawer for these situations.

Think I will park any thoughts on upgrading to this body (much to the relief of my bank manager) until I can get my hands on one alongside my D7000 ... when I am back from my hols.
