In fact I would like those points to be much, much closer to each other.

For me at least, the only use of those 51 AF points would be tracking once I understand how to use it. On such kind of situations I have never gotten perfectly focused shots, though I still enjoy some of the pics I got. This is fine for slowly moving subjects, but I would have liked to take pictures of the kids running towards me with a snowball in their hands ready to shoot, with those incredible grins and laughter. I am now using the camera in singlepoint (center) either AFC or afs. 9 point would jump to the edge of the drawing on several shots. I found the only setting which kept focus on the drawing at 70% of the shots was single point. Starting a few meters away I walked towards the chart with AFC dynamic area. In order to better understand how the system behaves, I prepared a hand drawn chart and hung it on a wall. I then tested 21 points and 9 points and found only the 9 point mode to give quite reliable results. I understand the "secret sauce" of the AF algorithm must be kept secret, but some more information would help me take better advantage of the camera.

Speaking of which, does anyone know Nikon's logic for moving the active point around? The user manual unfortunately gives no information about this. That gave me few keepers as the AF seems to be only slightly biased towards the selected point, but it wanders off to other AF points as it finds better contrast, or maybe because they are closer. Then I switched to dynamic area 51 points. I am not shooting distant wildlife, nor sportcars or birds in flight. This AF mode may be good for extremely contrasty subjects where DOF is enough to keep the entire subject in focus. It's hard to keep a subject in focus, and nearly impossible to keep a specific part of the subject in focus. 3d though is not usable for kids moving around. Seemed like the "easiest" mode on the photographer. Consider that my only lens for now is Nikon 35 1.8. From what I had read, I thought I would leave the camera stuck on continuous AF, 3d or maybe dynamic area.
Apart from landscape, my main subjects are my little kids running around, chasing each other or the photographer. So far (a month or so) I am more than happy with the image quality and still learning how to best use the AF options. Coming from Canon I decided to try out Nikon as I really liked the handling better and I had the feeling I could get a much more advanced AF system on the D7100 compared to most Canons. Due to theft of my full gear set I had the "chance" to start from scratch.
