The Nikon D7100 has 24.2 megapixels.
This means that the camera's sensor can capture 24.2 million individual pixels, which are tiny light-sensitive units. The higher the megapixel count, the more detail a camera can capture in an image.
This resolution allows for:
- High-quality prints: You can print large, detailed images without sacrificing sharpness.
- Cropping flexibility: You can crop your images without losing too much detail.
- Detailed digital zoom: Digital zoom is often less desirable than optical zoom, but a high megapixel count can make it more effective.
The Nikon D7100 is a popular choice for photographers who need a balance of image quality, performance, and affordability.
