Review on Nikon D3100 DSLR Camera Body (Kit Box) - No Lens Included, International Version with No Warranty by Aneta Szymaska ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The goods are normal, money is not wasted!

Very high quality considering its 15–17t price tag. Connecting a GPS receiver to it is possible (maybe someone likes geotags) Even though replacement batteries and control panels are available, we regret having to remove the IR receiver. The kit lens of 35mm f/1.8 is my main lens. Learn to use the manual settings on your "SLR" if you want better results than you're getting by shooting in "auto" mode. If you want photographs with a "blurred background," then you need a fast lens; the whale lens is too slow for that. Someone complained that there wasn't enough shutter speed for luminography, but considering that the average camera has a 30-second maximum and then switches to bulb mode, all you need is a remote to be satisfied. For those looking to get their feet wet with DSLR photography, the entry-level camera is more than a good bet for its price.

Pros
  • An Ideal Option for the Novice Cost, Stabilized Whale Lens, Video Capability, Decent Image Quality even with Whale Glass, and a Wide Field of View To a large extent, lightweight - Solid construction
Cons
  • Because the working segments do not align with the M42-M39 optics, autofocus is inoperable on a few lenses, which is more of a Nikon system quirk than a limitation. - No separating terms (canon has it even in younger models) Inability to connect an external microphone; flimsy plastic covering the memory card slot (not critical) Numerous options are buried in the menu and can't be accessed without going through multiple menu levels. A cumbersome locator that's hard to use The d3000 lacks an infrared port, a feature seen on other models.
