+ Image quality up to ISO 400 ausgezeichnent
+ Image quality to ISO 1600 very good
+ Image quality at ISO 3200 still quite good and useful
+ ISO 6400 for Web and retail formats is still better than no picture.
+ - ISO HI0,3 to HI1 only in an emergency
- ISO HI2 but be final an advertising Schmäh
- Night vision function also unusable
+ Swivel function of the Monitor
+ Display quality of the monitor
- Positioning in relation to the relatively small viewfinder are constantly "cheeks imprints on display"
- When the sun has its weaknesses. The lack of shoulder display he can not replace wiklich!
Lenses:
+ 16-85mm Nikkor is a little more expensive and a lot harder on the CAM. But only this lens irritates the CAM from.
+ 55-200mm Nikkor no longer irritates from the CAM, but gives better picture results than cuttings via image processing.
+ 50mm Nikkor shows in tests hervorragebde performance!
Exposure:
Very accurate. Also good at high ISO. Rather light-heavy - but no problem with EBV
Focus:
Has become quickly even with Nikon. Many settings possible. I use only the sensor mittlerein Cross - as just learned sometime .....
Live View:
- The really convinced me not now. Too slow in the display. Slow focus. I do not like even the mirror rattles.
+ Through the good display and the zoom function but an aid in manual focusing!
Viewfinder:
+/- A bit small, not very bright, displaying little light at sun - but wait class common
Video:
I do not use
Battery:
+/- Beginning was the Leisung disappointing. Now about 500 images with moderate usage monitor!
HDR:
- Only for stationary subjects (and usually stand) useful. With a few click by EBV better feasible.
I think to make the camera completely sufficient to take good photos. Professionals are some features like Schultersisplay, 100% viewfinder preview button, keypad shortcuts, no flash sync socket etc missing.
Amateurs are the great image editing options in the camera appreciate if you want to use a PC. Next I tested some scene modes. In order to obtain the same picture results, you would have without these aids have some expertise. The programs gehtŽs as if by magic. Condition is also often here at least the right lens!
--Einziger Drawback to the D90 and D7000 is that the 5100 only lenses with built-in motor is able to focus. Therefore, many of the older (and low purchasable) optics are unusable!
