Another D7000 vs D7100 question

Hi all, I,m in the way of buying a Nikon DX camera because I just sold my Fuji E-X2 and lens. Why? I did not bond with it. Period!
In my future I see a FF camera but not in this moment so my question is: D7000 or D7100? I have some Nikon lenses: 85 f/1.8 and the ai E series from 24 to 200mm.
Planning to buy a zoom.

Is the IQ much better on the D7100? My use is general photography but mostly landscapes and Churches/monuments.

Thank you.

If you don't do video than the D7100. The D7100 is about $500 less. The D7000 has a weather sealed body.

Do a D7000 vs D7100 snap shot, the 7100 shows as the winner.

The D7100 is less? I don't do video. Maybe you wanted to say D7000?

You've got the two models mixed up!

In what part is it mixed up.

the D7000 has continuous focus in video mode. It has a water sealed body and is $1699

The D7100 is under $1000.00.

For landscapes and big wide shots you mite as well start out with a FF camera...D750 or D610 and a FF wide lens to go with it.

Nope I didn't want say. Just do a little click on the link. I didn't make this up.

I have a D7000 and I love it. In this area a refurbished D7000 is a real bargain. Others argue that the D7100 is somewhat sharper but I do not feel it it is enough so to warrant the higher cost.

When compare prices, they should be the same identical item. The D7000 include 18-200 lens and the D7100 is body only. I do not trust snapsort anyway.

d7100 is a newer model of D7000

This discussion has made me aware that the 7100 is not sealed as well as the 7000. Anyone have thoughts/experience?

I think their info is wrong. The 7100 is an advanced replacement for the 7000, so I dont believe nikon would leave out the wx sealing. If you compare bodies only, the 7100 costs more.

It is not your fault. Snapsort should not give out wrong information.

Yes, snapsort for me is unreliable but here in Italy the differenze between the two - body only - is 140 euros so it'a a no brainer getting - money wise - the newer D7100- My only real gripe is the D7100's ridicolous buffer in raw. Do you confirm?

I have a D7100 and it is weather sealed (same as the D800). It is the replacement for the D7000 with a 50% bump in resolution, and improved auto focus system (51 vs 39 points), removal of the low pass filter, the next generation of expeed 3 processor (better IQ at high ISO, 7fps with new 1.3 crop mode), a locking mode dial button, new spot white balance in live view. If any of these are important to you it is well worth the difference in price.
