On this site you will find details about the main feature differences of the D5100 vs D7000 and what to consider when making your decision. I have been a very happy Nikon user for many years (going back to pre-digital days) so I also want to share my decision process and buying experience with you. Hopefully all this will help you to make the best decision for your needs.

While I list the main differences further down on this page, I just want to quickly share with you a Youtube clip that shows those differences.

Before making a final decision I suggest that you read through the info on the rest of this page as I believe it will help you in identifying not only the differences between these two cameras, but also which one may suite you best.

My opinion is of course only one person’s opinion. I always suggest people take a look at the Amazon buyers’ feedback page for the Nikon D5100 as this is a great way to see really good reviews from other buyers and users.
