Nikon D5100 Firmware Update – Nikon D5100 DSLR, based on the experience of two months with my camera. Marketed as an entry-level DSLR, Nikon D5100 top is a significant upgrade to the Nikon D5000 is longer. It has a Swivel LCD screen that is larger and more improved and the same superb sensor as Nikon D7000 semi-professional. In addition to the above changes, Nikon D5100 also lost some weight, making it lighter and more compact than the Nikon D5000.

D5100 has a CMOS sensor 16.2 MP sensor is very similar to the flagship that is visible on the D7000, but understandable, losing on the build and set the camera’s advanced features. So no control wireless blitz, magnesium alloy AF system or build 39-point but the underlying picture quality are all identical.

Nikon D5100 Features

With D5100, There are seven options that, as often happens with things like that, vary in terms of how useful/Interestingly they. The effect is best accessed when photographing in direct display mode (so that you can preview the effect), but a large amount of processing needed means the update preview speed dropped dramatically, which makes the composition becomes hard. As a result, like similar systems from other makers, record video rate is also down, giving the feel of high speed to the next screening.

Nikon D5100 Focus Performance

Nikon D5100 using AF System 11 the same focal points (1 cross-type sensor) which are found on the Nikon D90. Although not as strong as the focal point for 39 AF on the Nikon D7000 (9 cross-type sensors), this is quite a lot for a camera in this class. Performance autofocus during the day fast and accurate; I have no problem with getting a good focus even when photographing with telephoto lenses like Nikon 200-400 mm f/4 + TC-II teleconverter’s place.

Three modes available AF (AF-S, AF-C, and AF-A) works well-AF-S great for single-focus and the situation with the Dim light; Af-C managed to track a moving subject and AF-A works very well for most needs, photography. I leave the D5100 with AF-A 90% of the time and have unusual results with her. When photographing birds and wildlife, I switch to AF-C mode and shooting some of the explosive pictures at two frames per second.

The accuracy of the autofocus will undoubtedly suffer in low light, especially when using a focal point outside the normal. Because this camera has only 1 cross-type sensor (which is the most accurate AF sensor in the middle of the frame), If your lens started to hunt, that is when the lens can not acquire focus and started moving back and forth from close attention to infinity and back, first of all, try to divert the focus to Center active point (which is a type of cross). To do this, you must be in single-point AF Area Mode. If you still have problems, try the switch to focus Single mode Servo (AF-S), which will be AF assistance light the lamp at the front of the camera to illuminate your subject.
