Nice photos, I've been considering that camera for quite awhile, looks like it's a good one.

How far away from the deer were you Chris ? I searched and searched on which one to buy, the D7100 or the Canon 70D. I went with the 70D. I hope I didn't mess up.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I think you'll be good Steve, they are very comparable camera's. The deer were 20-200 yards away, the sheep were a lot further. I am not a fan of photo manipulation other than cropping, which I did on a couple of them. I was hoping to get some good buck pics, but kept seeing 2 points lol

I'm guessing those sheep were on the west side of 97A?

I really doubt you messed up. I do Nikon and wish I could afford that D7100 but can't. Nikon, Canon, Canon, Nikon I see no difference. My nephew shoots a Canon 1dx and I've held it but so used to Nikon, I'd have to learn all over again. 70D is supposed to be a really good camera. But then again the D7100 is a super camera also.

One reason I bought the Canon is because of the touchscreen. Seems slick for a camera and a rookie camera owner.

Nikon and Canon both make a wide range of products. The D7100 and D70D have similar specs and are both capable of high quality images.

What usually makes the biggest difference is the lens that you put on the body.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.
