In this head-to-head we look beyond the big two; our Nikon D7100 vs Olympus E-P5 comparison aims to find out which is the best enthusiast-level camera. Introducing the contenders Nikon D7100 ($1,197/£844 body only) vs Olympus PEN E-P5 ($999/£899 body only) Nikon D7100 Although this is APS-C (DX) format DSLR has the same effective pixel count (24.1 million) as the D5200, there's no anti-aliasing filter so it can record slightly sharper images. Nikon's EXPEED 3 processing engine enables a sensitivity range of ISO 100-6400, which is expandable to ISO 25600. For more, see our Nikon D7100 review. Olympus PEN E-P5 This retro-styled Micro Four Thirds compact system camera (CSC) uses the same 16.1MP sensor and TruePic VI processing engine as the highly respected Olympus OM-D (See our Olympus OM-D E-M10 review and our Olympus OM-D E-M1 review videos.

Nikon D7100 Nikon has used familiar SLR-style controls for the D7100, with a healthy collection of buttons and dials providing quick access to most features. At 675g/1.5lbs, most users will find that they need to use it two-handed, with the left hand supporting the lens and using the controls on the left. Olympus E-P5 At 378g the E-P5 feels solid and well-made, but is light enough to be held one-handed. All the key features can be reached quickly via physical controls, while a switch changes the function of the two main control dials. In addition, the touchscreen gives a quicker means of controlling the camera. Olympus wins SEE MORE: Canon EOS 1200D vs Nikon D3300 vs Pentax K-500 – which is the best entry-level DSLR? Nikon D7100 vs Olympus E-P5: 2. Is there a viewfinder? Nikon D7100 Yes, the D7100 has an optical pentaprism viewfinder built-in, which covers 100% of the field of view. In addition, images can be composed on the 8cm/3.2-inch 1,228,800-dot LCD, but this is fixed rather than tilting, and it's not touch-sensitive. Olympus E-P5 There's no viewfinder built-in, but the VF-4 External Electronic viewfinder is available for around $279/£249 if you can't live without one. Otherwise images can be composed on the 7.6cm/3-inch 1,037,000-dot touchscreen. This tilting unit is handy when shooting landscape-format images from high or low angles, and provides another way of controlling the camera.
