Who has knowledge of what the focus, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings are? Ensure that you purchase memory for it that is class 10 and between 8 and 16 gigabytes. And you will feel great about it! mm f/ 4-5.6G IF-ED DX VR Zoom for it, and the pictures taken with f/ 1.8 will only make you happy. Got pros: Amazingly portable and lightweight for a DSLR camera! Rate of fire: three frames per second! The fact that there are red focus points available is quite helpful (aka Canon 500D)! Eyecup that is not uncomfortable. (Who wears glasses) I agree that among DSLRs up to 22-23000 Screen 230000 dots, but the viewing angle is still class, Thai assembly (In a word - Nikon) photographs. (If you have puffiness on the outside, then even more.) Video recording in full high definition at 1920 by 1080 pixels, stabilizer (with manual focus) (However, this is not the most important item), and nail-free Cons: 1) A lifeless body without a motor! 2) The viewfinder is rather dark (in comparison to the Canon 450D) Continuous shooting for three frames / the sound that is produced during video shooting is monophonic (but I do not shoot video) When filming video and utilizing live view, the battery life is terrible! Insufficient white balance and exposure bracketing (however these issues can be "tweaked"). Dear Nikon lenses! (the focusing feature will not operate when using an NIKON AF 50 mm f/1.8 D lens!): 8 10) The right-hand grip on Canon cameras is more comfortable (for my grip), and the power button on the camera turns itself on. In contrast, the power button on Nikon cameras is placed elsewhere on the body of the camera.
