The ratio of price and quality is very pleasing, I will repeat the purchase.

I will speak for myself when I say that given the price of the product and its market, I am generally very satisfied. Nothing is lacking, and everything is done well. This is my first DSLR. I compared the D90 with the noise, and the D90 comes up short! The D3100 Expeed 2 matrix is the same in both 5100 and 7000. Hence, there won't be any change in image quality between the D3100-D7000 price range; instead, the 7000 may have less noise and the added functionalities. Take full-frame right away if

Pros
  • The D3100 is entirely cost-effective and provides all the components necessary for good results (provided that your hands grow properly and you know how to use editors)
Cons
  • Auto white balance is inaccurate, especially in low light and with inside lamps, but everything is manually fixed on the camera and on the computer in RAW. If you wish to capture a picture, it is best to avoid using live view mode; instead, utilize it for video. When shooting video, autofocus works sadly and slowly. It is preferable to switch to manual focus so that the lens motor won't make any noise. The memory card's lid dangles; at first, it killed me, but eventually it scored totally. After a year of careful use, dust started to accumulate under the focusing screen. I removed the screen myself, blew it out with a pear, and after some time, dust started to accumulate once more. Just seen in the viewfinder, it has no impact on the picture's quality. It turned discovered that this issue affects practically all DSLRs.

High-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

It seems to me that pragmatic individuals who are aware of exactly what they require from Nikon are the ones that purchase this brand. You will inevitably come across local teenagers who, rather than using the camera for the purpose it was designed, begin to pick it apart in terms of its construction and its capabilities to perform certain tasks. The camera is great for novices, but not only for them; moving into more advanced professional talents is accomplished by purchasing a lens with a…

Pros
  • The Nikon 3100 is equipped with everything, or at least 95% of what you require for day-to-day activities. Great ergonomics. Great kit lens. Great image quality (if your hands grow from there). aesthetically pleasing and provides nice tactile sensations.
Cons
  • This is just paranoia, so I won't waste my time writing stuff about blowback and bracketing. Now, please explain how the potential for the gas tank cap's backlash to impair the functioning of the vehicle. That works the same way here. Reportage photography requires the use of a flash with a higher power output; however, the package does not include any wiring necessary to connect to a computer.

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

I didn't include the fact that the image quality is fantastic both during the day and at night in the list of merits because Nikon simply cannot produce images of poor quality!;) An outstanding camera for those just starting out as well as those who are still learning (like me:))) Although the Canon 500D supports bracketing, it does not have a strong indication, which is essential for individuals who are using a DSLR for the first time and want to capture photographs in modes other than "auto."

Pros
  • 1. 11-point focus (never missed focus) 2. Even with the standard 18-55mm VR lens, the portraits are very good. 3. Guide (he is everywhere and everywhere, when something is not clear or when you change any settings - hints in the form of images and descriptions) 4. You are able to take pictures while the video is being recorded! 5. Ergonomics (appearance, convenience of forms, body materials) 6. When taking pictures, none of the "unnecessary" buttons come into contact with the photographer's fingers and don't get in the way. 7. The lifespan of the battery is extremely impressive. 8. Reasonably priced memory cards 9. A user-friendly and understandable menu and control system for the camera.
Cons
  • 1. There is no cable to connect to the computer 2. When taking pictures in Live View, there is a countdown timer set for thirty seconds before the screen turns off. 3. There are no brackets.

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

Excellent camera; extremely happy. I really advise it to anyone searching for their first DSLR. You won't be dissatisfied because it is simple to use, practical, affordable, and produces excellent images. From the D3100, D5000, Pentax K-R, and Canon 500D, I choose my first DSLR. I have read numerous reviews. So I made the decision to touch it once rather than read it a thousand times. I scrutinized and rotated every camera I had in my possession while tormenting the vendors. Yet, I came to the…

Pros
  • 1. User-friendliness - The camera is very simple to use, with nothing unnecessary or confusing. You can figure it out in a matter of minutes. 2. Price. Such opportunities and assembly are good for such money. The D3100 earned my vote when I had to choose between the D5000 and D3100. It will be quicker with the same parameters because the model is more recent. 3. Excellent pictures even with a kit lens. 4. The ideal model for those selecting their first DSLR, like I did (easy to operate, functional, inexpensive, takes great pictures - in a word, pleases.) 5. Small and lightweight, it is an ideal size for holding in the hand. 6. It takes the battery only 1.5 hours to fully charge.
Cons
  • Although the battery charges quickly, there is enough power for a short stroll; however, for a longer trip, you will need to have a backup battery. Although the camera can shoot 550 photos or even more, I would prefer for it to have a larger storage capacity (maybe a nitpick).

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…

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.

The quality was generally satisfied, there were minor shortcomings.

The first DSLR camera (after the Panasonic megazoom). I was able to figure everything out in a matter of days; the camera is quite simple to operate and, despite the fact that my hand was slightly uncomfortable at first, I quickly adjusted to its size. Bokeh appeared in my photos for the very first time, the autofocus was only accurate when there was enough light, I could access the menu with just two clicks, the buttons were programmable, and the whale lens was bearable. I am overjoyed.

Pros
  • Price\scompactness Programmable Buttons Shooting good video
Cons
  • Not carcasses (no complaints), but the drawbacks of a kit lens: it is useless in a room and in the dark, it cannot be used for macro photography, and the autofocus engine can be rather loud when recording video. If you invest in a quality lens, you won't have to worry about any limitations.

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

A mere three days ago, I sat down and agonized over whether to purchase a Pentax kr or a Nikon. After comparing the two brands' images and concluding that they were essentially identical, I opted for the latter and haven't been sorry about my decision. I figured out the controls; once again, every detail was considered. This is the first camera I've owned with a dedicated SLR lens. Friends attempted to dissuade me, saying things like "why do you need to carry it?" or "why don't you just take it

Pros
  • After soap dishes, everything is simply a lot better. It was to my satisfaction. Everything is exactly where it should be, and all the work is done for the residents.
Cons
  • no, not yet

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Since I first learned of it many years ago, I've been using it on occasion. The best option is to snap a rough format photo and frame it in a liter. Easily accessible creativity became a part of his existence. Excellent pastime to combine with virtual and physical communities. Seeing the natural world for what it is can help you appreciate its splendor. I decided to upgrade to the 105mm lens and am pleased with my purchase.

Pros
  • Price When compared to snapshots taken with cell phones or bar soap, photographs are a vast improvement. A mirror device's fundamentals will be taught in 2022's training mode. Sustained, damage-free use over many years is possible because to the high-quality construction.
Cons
  • Disappointing display, no internet access

Perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

The camera has served several purposes for about a year with no failures or malfunctions, thanks to its sturdy construction. Superb, high-quality photography. Adapts well even though it has a whale lens on it. Often employed for scenic shots, travel photography, and individual portraits. As I am just a beginner and my photography ambitions are primarily academic, I don't expect the miraculous. Hence, at this point, the camera is ideal for any use. I'm considering investing in a lens and a flash

Pros
  • An excellent camera, high-resolution images in a number of common formats (so far only a whale lens)
Cons
  • You should probably bring a spare battery, just in case.

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

A full-featured DSLR for the price that, in theory, can do all functions the same as more expensive models. As compared to more expensive cameras, it could not have certain cool features. Yet it more than lives up to its price! This is the most cost-effective choice for a novice because it will assist you in determining what you need and how to proceed.

Pros
  • 1. Price. I purchased a used one for 10,000 in April 2022 that was nearly brand new. 2. Dependability and craftsmanship The camera never failed me during my year and a half of use, even if the operation was occasionally very difficult. It withstands all tests with flying colors, withstanding temperatures between -40 and +40, rain, and snow. 3. Usability and convenience. A guide mode is offered for total beginners, where everything is explained in depth. Landscape, portrait, macro, and other options are also available. The menu is straightforward, and there are no challenging settings. For me, it took about 30 minutes to fully adjust and begin shooting. 4. Dimensions and weight. Very compact, even with a big lens, and the body itself doesn't take up much room in the suitcase. 5. Excellent independence. It has a battery life of over 500 frames per charge; I charge it once every two weeks.) With a batblock, I predict that it will last 900 frames without incident. 6. RAW format and image quality. The camera produces high-quality images even with a whale lens. Naturally, you shouldn't anticipate him to provide outstanding results at high ISO, but in regular lighting, everything is excellent. If anything, the RAW format is forgiving of many rookie errors. 7 Video. Even though I don't use it very often and it's not the greatest feature, having it in such a cheap DSLR is nice.
Cons
  • 1. Fast bursts and a small frame buffer That could be a little quicker, though. Because the frame buffer is limited, the camera may occasionally delay taking the next frame in a series for an extended period of time. 2. Display. Although it's nice, the visual quality is occasionally subpar. 3. The RAW format and dynamic range. It does not usually stretch nicely because RAW is still chopped here. Noise can already be seen at ISO 400. 4. A lookthrough. Tiny, with partial frame coverage, and dark. Everything that has been said has more advantages than drawbacks. The camera is, after all, the most basic.

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

In point of fact, many of my close friends have purchased this model for themselves and are pleased with their purchase. They have put it to use, they have taken pictures with it everywhere, and the results are fantastic. When compared to a Kenon 1000 or 1100 of the same model, the image quality of this device is significantly higher by an order of magnitude. In addition, the Kenon whale doesn't compare favorably to the Nikon whale in terms of quality and clarity. In point of fact, a DSLR can…

Pros
  • A fully-fledged mirror that possesses all of the fundamental functions, including RAW format, manual control, shutter and aperture priorities, at an affordable price. In addition, the video quality is exceptional, and it possesses autofocus with face detection. This is a major step forward! An exceptional DSLR for beginners that, in contrast to other models, more than justifies the price tag it carries. There is just no other option that is worthy of consideration for such a fee, with the possible exception of some rubbish from his hands.
Cons
  • There certainly are, but not at this price, so they are not readily apparent. Flimsy. A control that is a little bit tricky and does not permit you to quickly set up the camera, but I believe that you are capable of figuring it out. On the video, AF occasionally lags behind; nonetheless, in Sony Alpha, it is still more accurate; however, the face recognizer makes up for any deficiencies.

The product did not disappoint, the quality pleases.

The d7000 is more user-friendly than his older sibling, the d3000. However, I opted for the d3000 rather than the d3100 because the former is bulkier and the latter is lighter while providing only a marginal improvement in terms of image quality (-: In sum, Canon and Nikon devotees are yelling about the d3100 and 1000D, respectively, while the d3000 package from Nikon is plainly losing appeal. Just my opinion. Chao

Pros
  • In contrast to its older sibling, the d3000, the LCD screen can be used as a viewfinder. What's more, it's a high-quality video recording. The new matrix consumes significantly less power, but produces noise when subjected to excessive strain (there is a slight difference in ccd and cmos matrices). Those who intend to print photographs at an A2 size or larger will need a camera with a high megapixel count. For me, this technological advancement is unnecessary.
Cons
  • One thing that bothers me is that the ccd and cmos matrices aren't the same. Nonetheless, the ccd matrix is my favorite. And if you're concerned about physical dimensions, the d3000's bigger brother has a little larger matrix and thus superior image quality.

I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

I had desired a DSLR for a while and chose the most basic model. The price was reasonable, and I learned from forums that this was a fantastic equipment, even with a basic Kit lens, for novice and home photographers. I purchased it from Pixel24 since they offered the cheapest pricing and regional shipping. As I was unfamiliar with the nuances of shooting with SLR cameras, I mounted it on a car and used it for three months. This mode effectively completes the task. 80% of pictures turn out well.

Pros
  • high caliber, inexpensive, and simple to comprehend
Cons
  • As with other lards, in my opinion, size and weight

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

I used a kit lens (18-55mm) for the first month after purchase; the images are of decent quality but are dim. I later purchased a Nikon AF 50mm f/1.8. The lack of autofocus is not at all embarrassing; in fact, it facilitates shooting and some learning. There are no issues with the camera; for 3.5 months it performed flawlessly and delighted everyone. To increase my options, I'm going to soon add a Nikon 55-200 to the set.

Pros
  • The rubberized handle is more practical than the plastic one because of its small size and comfort in the hand. Convenient control—turn it on, configure it as needed, and then take pictures while adjusting the shutter speed, aperture, and something set to the third button (in my case, iso). This is another convenience because there aren't any additional buttons that could be confusing or that a beginner would likely not need. Perhaps its biggest plus is the caliber of the images! I'm not even talking about 14 megapixels; I myself adjusted the picture size to medium (3456 * 2304). The whale lens is excellent; the colors are stunning, but the focusing occasionally fails (I shoot manually). Up to ISO 800, there is absolutely no noise, at 1600, they are hardly undetectable, and in competent hands, Hi2 will be noise-free.
Cons
  • Despite the fact that I praised its proportions, it can occasionally feel cramped and uneasy. The viewfinder is small, which can occasionally be inconvenient (although it is more of a gripe).

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

In terms of the price to features to overall quality ratio, it is one of the devices that I believe ranks among the finest in its price category. Not only can it be used as a "pioneer" single-lens reflex camera, but it can also be utilized as a second camera for reportage work. 3 frames per second is not exactly a fountain, but neither is the price of the device 60,000 dollars. If you took everything unnecessary out of it, like videos, tutorials, and built-in graphic editors, and added even…

Pros
  • To tell you the truth, it was hurriedly purchased during MAKS 2022 due to the fact that the second camera (referred to as the "carcass") had passed away due to old age (D90) and "unfortunate" abuse. 1. Hello, my name is Nikon. Those who are familiar with this "mirror brand" do not require a lengthy instruction booklet to complete their purchase. And with that, everything is brought to light. The ship "Glass" hung up and went straight into the fight. 2. the telephoto lens's weight and the ergonomics of its attachment to the carcass, which is an important consideration. 3. Delighted with the performance of the battery Really "runs" more than the 550 that was declared (and with VR and AF turned on on the Nikkor 70-300 glass). 4. Fast autofocus. 5. Satisfied with the performance of the buffer on a number of shots I anticipated that it would pick up speed, but instead, it picked up "with a boom."
Cons
  • I will not include any kind of backlash-laces on the list of deficiencies. 1. There are not many shortcut buttons that are functional. As you scroll down the menu to the item you want, the moving object gradually disappears (runs away, flies away, floats away). 2. Do not keep the video that it produced. Expensive and unneeded in most cases. THIS IS A CAMERA! Instead of doing that, it would be more beneficial to equip the camera with bracketing and a more robust autofocus mechanism (as is done in the D5200). 3. If the LV mode is already available, the monitor should already support multiple positions. The "deadly stuck" version (monitor) in which it now exists does not allow for the mode to justify itself. I am also capable of shooting through the viewfinder. 4. I looked all over the display and couldn't for the life of me figure out where it shows the current ISO. Either I don't see it, or the other men didn't get it done. 5. When the ISO is increased, it begins to emit a faint glow. I, too, had problems until I learned how to manually adjust the white balance.

A good product, more pros than cons.

For over two years, I have used this camera. During this period, it has shown to be an effective instrument for capturing high-quality images. Naturally, the bar has been raised and the criteria tightened. Therefore: One, the base ISO may be less. Okay, so maybe it's not perfect, but it's a great beginning. So, here's idea number two: I want to make the jump to full frame. Cropped lenses confuse me, and I can't figure out why. Nonetheless, I would not have grasped any of this without the…

Pros
  • As expected, the maker. Amazingly, the menu is easy to understand. Calculating the cost of a camera. Consistency in performance. The ability to record video is present. To my surprise, it was useful.
Cons

It was a reasonable purchase, will order more.

A beginner's DSLR—the name says it all. I suggest that you enroll in a course of lectures on photography after getting off my soapbox. The Automatic mode won't let you shoot, therefore you should instantly forget about it and never use it again. Replace the stock whale lens right away and never use it again. If you think that by purchasing this camera you will always take flawless pictures, this is untrue; do not harbor delusions; this camera is instructional for learning how to take pictures…

Everything about the purchase suits me, a very necessary product.

After taking it for a year, I can honestly say that I am as content as an elephant after having an enema. The flight of the author's imagination and the use of extra glass are the two factors that determine the quality of the images. The corpse itself is a work of art in its own right. Take it, you won't regret it. But regardless of the type of carcass you decide to take, you should still figure out how much money you will need to pay for a flash, telephoto, and fixed (built-in and whale become

Cons

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

After a casual get-together, where I had the opportunity to handle a Nikon D5100, I brought it home with my wife, but the cost of this replica will be significantly higher. In addition to this, the fact that the manufacturer refers to all of these models (D3000-D7000) as "amateur" can be seen even on the official website. Why should you overpay initially for something that you might realize you need in a few months or that you might not notice at all?)) The model is easily understood, but the…

Pros
  • A good equipment for the price (I purchased it with an 18-105 VR lens for a total of 22,990), and when you take into consideration that the lens itself contains a processor that helps a great deal with "shake" and the ability to work manually, then. Only one major and significant benefit!
Cons
