Good question i asked myself many times
first thing is the higher mega pixel which i have no use of but want to
second thing is the hdr picture capability
3rd thing is higher iso capabilities which would let me take pics in darker environments
most importantly i wanted two features one is the remote to take pics (just saw this is another $200
)and another feature i missed in D3100 is (i forgot the name of that feature but) the camera actually takes like 3 shots instead of one at + and - fstops .. like the fstop is f2.0 then the pic gets taken at f1.8 and f2.0 and f2.2 and we can choose while we edit.

Not sure about the D7100, I'm still rocking a D40 and love it. I also don't really know how to use a lot of the advanced features, but I still love it.

The ISO performance on the 7100 is fantastic. I have some sample photos from a friend who just picked one up.
A $200 shutter release remote?

You can bracket with any DSLR (although the 7100 makes it a bit easier) Lightroom, Photoshop, and I think the Nikon software will allow you to compile the images. Because of harsh lighting and moving objects I have found bracketing extremely difficult in aquarium photography (not sure if that is your intent).
Something else to think about... quality/professional glass will also provide sharper images, better color rendition and typically a few extra stops of light. Are you happy with your current lens? If not, you will have a much larger photo with the imperfections of the glass.
All that said the 7100 is a great camera!

Yea all dslrs allow for bracketing but D3100 doesnt have that option .. literally have to take 3 pics and combine it to get HDR from d3100
and lol no Aquarium photgraphy is not my intent
regarding lens i mostly only use 50mm 1.4G which is pretty good.. also looking to get someother lens but **** they are expensive ..
