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

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I didn't like it, I don't recommend buying it.

The primary function of this tool is to teach its user how to operate a single-lens reflex camera. Nevertheless, we'll also have to figure out WHETHER YOU NEED IT. 1) You'll either keep using your soap dish/iPhone to snap pictures, in which case this one will collect dust, or you'll start using it. It's cheap, but well worth the price. Second possibility: You'll get so enamored with the photographic process that it will consume your life. Put the theory to use, and then some, and practice, practice, practice. Then get yourself a normal technique)) Anybody who knows anything about Nikon technology would rather have a used D90 or D200/300 for the same price as this chuchundra) And a simple fix for them than this D3100. You can get some fantastic images with this gear (in skillful hands)

Pros
  • Requires a new quote (with several caveats). (Cf. below)
Cons
  • 1) Loud noises above 800-1600 ISO 2) Atofocus that isn't entirely sure. The whale seems to be doing OK. Also, the only way for it to not smear is to use fast lenses on a wide aperture. It's off by about 50% and even in the majority of shots. It's not the whale lens itself that I warn beginners away from, but the possibility that it could make them lose interest in using a DSLR. Although an 18-55mm kit lens isn't terrible in theory and could come in handy on a trip, the iPhone often outperforms it in terms of photo quality.
