I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Overall: A very good camera that is 100% worth the money. If this is your first serious camera, and you will shoot what you like, do not delve into "making money on pictures" earning money, then this camera is for you. Those. for everyday use. Suitable for the whole family.
It is better to buy a bag for the device. I took Golla. Makes comfortable, and not unimportantly, stylish bags.
It's worth taking a film on a 3-inch screen. 100 will save a vulnerable soul :)
And an external flash. I tend to recommend Nikon speedlight SB-600. In this case, do not save, and immediately take the middle class. Worth about 10k.
In general, who else is thinking whether to take Nikon d3100 or, say, Canon 500d, 550d. Take Nikon.
Although of course, this is a matter of brand taste.

Pros

1. Ease of management. This is a priority for people who take something more complicated than a mobile phone or a regular digital camera for the first time. The menu is very detailed and intuitive at the same time. Of course, sometimes I would like to change / correct something faster, but even with one programmable button, it is very convenient. Lots of nice little things. For example, if you took 2 frames from the same position in different modes, then on the display you can zoom in on the picture and use the wheel to compare the same parts of the frame, revealing the best one. Very nice. 2. Price. Not very expensive. Let's say the same Canon 500D will be more expensive, but in terms of characteristics they are on a par with this device. Of course, do not forget the lack of a "screwdriver" and for convenience, you will need to take AF-S lenses so that the device focuses itself. And a similar lens (for example, a 50mm fix) canon will cost an order of magnitude cheaper. But this is already a matter of taste in relation to lenses. Maybe the manual is important for someone. 3. Opportunities. Of course, for such a price (I took 18-55mm with a whale) for 21900. The camera has a lot of possibilities. Fine tuning of all parameters. Very wide sensitivity range. Good photos at high ISO values. Those. if you want to take a picture of a person in a nightclub, then at ISO 3200 it will work out well. Of course, not for printing on A4 format, but in order to share with friends and throw "FBontakte", here you will be happy. Here you can attribute good shutter speed values. With excellent lighting at a minimum shutter speed, you can catch a lot. 4. Video. Unlike all the same 500d, the video works much better here. I don’t use 1080p . 720 at 30fps is enough. And of course tracking autofocus. It will be interesting and easy to shoot. Live view can be attributed here, although you rarely use it. But the screen is clear and informative.

Cons

1. Of course, the microphone could also be made stereo, but for the inexperienced (like most) it will do. 2. Shooting speed 3 frames / sec. For its price (small) it will do, but sometimes you want to go faster. But this again rests on older models. 3. If you want to use motor lenses, you will have to spend a little more.
