Review on Nikon D5100 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm VR Lens - High Resolution 16.2MP by Bhavin Tharwani ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not a bad buy, well worth the money.

Attention! In order not to be disappointed in the device, be sure to check the focus when buying! Of the three tested devices in different stores, only one turned out to have an accurate lens focus. For those who do not want to search and print test charts, I would recommend taking a picture of a small object in the store, for example, phone buttons with an open aperture. Take a few shots at the angle of the center button, then view them enlarged. You will immediately see whether the sharpness of the neighboring buttons has floated away or not. When buying, I was still struck by the Soviet service. Sellers in their mass did not want not only to test the device, but also simply charge the battery and turn it on, although they are required to do this in accordance with the consumer protection law. So I came to the store with my battery (I borrowed from friends), a test chart and a flash drive. It also turned out that Nikon gives a 2-year warranty on the devices, and there is only one store. For the second year they are trying to lure out money. For the quality of workmanship, I give the device a three because of the inaccurate focusing of the lenses. The price is adequate. For convenience, I put a four because of the complicated menu. In general, the device is very worthy!

Pros
  • A lot has been written about the merits, so I will not repeat myself. I bought this device because of the availability of hdr and d-lighting functions, because I photograph landscapes a lot. Canon has these features only in expensive models. I was pleased with the presence of image processing functions and specials in the device. effects. For photography lovers who do not want to sit and process photos in lighroom and photoshop, the functions are useful. I like Nikon's color rendition, although this is subjective.
Cons
  • Just one programmable button. I would like two. Difficult menu for beginners.

With its pros. One of the best "cropped" matrices, light weight. Small RAW file size. Excellent dynamic range. Has some cons The lack of a "screwdriver", which leads to the lack of autofocus on all lenses except AF-S. Uncomfortable grip.
