Nikon D5100 sensor gets DXoMark'ed

DxoMark has just published their Nikon D5100 RAW sensor test results! Be sure to check the various sub-tabs at the aforelinked page for the different test results!

With the D5100 using a 16mp sensor, the RAW sensor test results can be used to compare to other 16mp "magic sensor" cameras, along with previous 12mp darlings. Here are some pre-filled comparisons to get you started:

+ Nikon D7000 vs D5100 vs D90 - family portrait
+ Nikon D5000 vs D5100 vs D3100 - posing with the older cousins
+ Pentax K-5 vs D5100 vs Sony A580 - 16mp darlings

As usual, please note the DxO test results are only one part of a multi-part equation when evaluating and comparing various camera systems.
