Review on Nikon D5100 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm VR Lens - High Resolution 16.2MP by Adam Kotula ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

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

My first digital single-lens reflex camera is a Nikon D5100, which I selected after much deliberation among other Nikon cameras. To be able to capture photographs of a high-quality while remaining within one's financial means, it was necessary to acquire a single-lens reflex camera (SLR) that was both compact and lightweight, and which lacked further features. The remaining criteria are open to personal preference and financial considerations, however all Nikon devices satisfy the very last requirement. After reading a large number of comparative English-language reviews (the D3200 is already on sale there), watching a large number of videos, and considering my options, I ultimately decided to purchase the Nikon D5100 body and the Nikon 50mm f/1.8G AF-S fixed lens to go with it (as they write about it being a must-have). In due time, I intend to get a Nikon 18-200 VR lens so that I can use it for a variety of situations. Even though there is also a video camera, I chose not to test it out because the quality of the photos was so high. I found exactly what I was looking for in the Nikon D5100, and I couldn't be happier.

Pros
  • Outstanding ergonomic design with careful consideration. The swivel screen is one of my favorite features, especially because it can be covered up when I'm looking through the viewfinder and so prevented from getting scratched. Intuitive menu. A quick preparedness for labor that includes inclusion. One day is provided by the battery's capacity.
Cons
  • There is no option for attaching the lens cap to the body of the camera or the lens (this is a minor flaw that may be fixed by you on your own).
