HDR (High Dynamic Range)
Exquisite detail in highlight and shadow
In scenes with extreme contrasts, such as bright, sunlit clouds and a
foreground deep in shadow, it was once quite difficult to render the textures of
both equally. Not any more. D5100 combines two exposures to create an image
revealing an extremely wide dynamic range, but with less noise and richer color
gradation than ever before.
Stunning image quality
Image quality in a class of its own
Incorporating the latest Nikon D-SLR technologies such as the 16.2MP
DX-format CMOS sensor and EXPEED 2 image processing engine, the D5100 delivers
outstanding image quality. Its CMOS sensor offers a remarkably wide ISO range
(ISO 100 to 6400) with reduced noise which enables you to shoot at faster
shutter speeds and capture scenes and subjects with less blur. Handheld shooting
and full HD movies come out looking great even in low light.
Speed and performance that delivers
With high-speed continuous shooting at approx. 4 frames per second,
you’ll never miss a moment and with D5100’s large optical viewfinder
providing accurate and realistic composition, you’ll get a precise view and
focus in every situation.
Capture your subjects precisely
D5100’s 11-point AF system provides flexibility to compose the shot you
want ensuring your subject is captured sharply wherever it’s located in the
frame. Working together with the Scene Recognition System, the camera can
keep your main subject in focus even if the composition changes using
Nikon’s exclusive 3D-tracking.
