d7100 is far better, but its also more money, if you are just starting out 5300 is great, lots of features like toy camera mode, painting mode , it also has wifi and gps built in, my wife is just starting out so I opted for this instead of the more advanced 7100,also d7100 was named most stolen camera in the world!

The reason i ask is D7100 is a 23.5 mm sensor and this lens is made for a 36mm sensor or a full frame sensor.. May be you should look at some DX sensors .. If you are inclined on this lens then i would suggest to save up a little more and get the D600 or D800... its definitely worth it and you will enjoy it a lot...just my suggestion.. :)

We think you'll find the website snapsort.com helpful, it is a great way to compare any two camera models. They actually show that the D5200 is a slightly better camera, here's the link for their comparison:http://snapsort.com/compare/Nikon-D5200-vs-Nikon-D5300

I never used Nikon D7100, but a I think that is very good and the only really diference is the sensor, because in D610 is full frame.

It works for my D7000, so I can't imagine that it wouldn't work for the D7100, since they have identical flash subsystems.

I have a D300 and the Sigma lens works very well. I'm not sure about the sigma lens' comparability with the D5300. The other answers seem to find the two to be compatible.

Yes. The D7100 has an autofocus motor built into it. The lower consumer models can't autofocus with it, but the D300, D90, D7000, and D7100 both have the capability of being used with older lenses that support autofocus. Newer lenses tend to have autofocus built into the lens, which matters if you had the D3200 or the D5300. Hope this helps.

The IS function on the A710 will help in low light situations and the 6X. The camera has high ISO but this will cause bad outcomes in low light(noise). You can take better low light pics with IS and set the ISO to 200 or less. If you like the size of the A710 you will get more for your money in the long run. Both cameras are great and inexpensive for what you get. If the extra money is meaningful for you, just get the A540 and enjoy. Even the A530 is worth your consideration. All the A series cameras are real nice, always have been. Go to camera review sites and read the forums or ask. Many people there will be glad to share their knowledge. KenRockwell.com shows how IS will improve your pics. Article dated 9/20/06.

I don't recommend the D600 until the "improved" version is out there. Nikon need to fix the "dust/oil spot" issue, not just say "clean it". After 30 + years with Nikon, I'm still very disappointing. I'm using my dated D700, which is still a great DSLR. For the price, you should check out the D7100.

Yes, it will work. But the D7100 is a crop sensor camera so the real zoom range will be approximately 27-52. Nice lens should be a nice complement to the D 7100. Again just be aware of the zoom range.

I'm not familiar with the D7100, but I have a D90 that it works with. I think Nikon keeps these I/O port pretty much standard across their line of DSLRs

I wouldn't buy this for d7100. Focal length is not useful for a crop sensor on the wide end. It's pretty fat and heavy lens, I would look into 16-85mm

If you can handle manual control, and don't mind minor layout inconveniences, I can't think of any reasons to get 7100 over 5300. With manual control and the right lenses you can do everything 7100 can, and then some.

From what I've read the D7100 and D7200 share the same body; only the internals are different.

This simply means that there's a slightly upgraded model of the D7000 which is D7100 :=)

Odd that Amazon's camera compatibility widget says it is not compatible, but yes it is. The D7100 has a built-in autofocus motor, but even if it didn't the lens has an AF-S motor. In any case, yes this lens will work very well with the D7100.

I have both D700 and D7100. On a D7100 I can, I guess in d3100 you can too!
