\"D7100_18_105_fronttop.high\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The D7000 was such a popular model for underwater photography that I am sure the D7100 will get some attention from the community.<\/p>\n

Let me outline the major improvements:<\/p>\n

1) 3.2″ OLED screen ( looks like the biggest and brightest DSLR monitor yet )<\/p>\n

2) 24MP as opposed to 16MP on the previous model.<\/p>\n

3) 60 fps Video at 720p.<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Significantly\u00a0improved Auto Focus.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The rest stays the same and the camera looks just about the same. \u00a0Is is worth an upgrade ? \u00a0probably not. \u00a0But large monitor and 24MP for cropping are indeed very good features for underwater photography.<\/p>\n

While I do not yet have info from housing manufacturers , I can only guess Ikelite will be released first and very soon and Nauticam will follow. \u00a0I doubt any other manufacturer will make a housing for this model but I may be surprised.<\/p>\n
