The Nikon D100 is a discontinued 6-megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera made by Nikon Corporation and designed as a consumer alternative to the professional D1 series cameras. It was the precursor of both the more advanced D70 and D200 cameras with the former continuing the consumer offerings and the latter beginning an advanced consumer and professional lineup. The D70 kept the controls which the D100 inherited from the F80 film camera, which has evolved into the current D7500 and D750 offerings, in cropped frame and full frame respectively. The D200 adopted the controls of the D1 series.
