My question still stands though, I have seen many real world photographs where the D7100 produces FF quality photographs, but can the D3300 do the same in terms of picture quality?
You have to analyze sales numbers in relation to profitability to determine if crop dslrs are dead.
If Nikon shuttered the DX line, I'm sure most price sensitive existing and future buyers would go to Canon, Pentax or other systems. I would think few would go up to a FF Nikon due to cost. THEN future FF sales would suffer too as ppl would have Nikon/Pentax glass and would need a really good reason to switch brands.You have to analyze sales numbers in relation to profitability to determine if crop dslrs are dead.
I agree. Look at Ricoh's acquisition of the Pentax line of cameras. Clearly, Ricoh thinks there is enough of a market for crop dslrs that they even continued to design new crop sensor dslrs under the pentax name. Not only do they think they can make money, they can do it with a market share that is considerably smaller than canon and nikon.

Just think .. Canon/Pentax could capture all the crop sales. Less competition on the sales floor, more profitability, lower cost of manufacturing.
Most companies don't shutter a profitable "line". If anything they try to sell it, split if off into another organization or something.
Good guy - you will need an adapter to use even the best CaNikon DSLR glass with their mirrorles. Unless for some reason they decide to keep the long flange distance, thus making their mirrorless as bulky as DSLRs. Otherwise the need for an adapter kind of defeats this glass awesomeness. And this is one of the reasons why CaNikon with their huge number of top DSLR glass do not hurry to embrace mirrorless, methinks.
I think it will all be replaced with mirrorless type cameras DX and FX. Nikon will just have make their lenses compatible.
