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

I didn’t feel like a photographer with him much. Pros below: The carcass is its dignity, after I studied what "ISO" is, I realized that I was not mistaken. The buttons are all you need - you get used to it quickly. There are two ways to use the infrared remote control: front and back - believe me, it will be very useful in the future;) As always, Nikon pleases with plugs, rubber bands, caps in the kit. Buy a normal glass and it will work to the fullest, like a middle-class "professional"…

No minuses as such, comfortable to use.

A very good device, located between d3100 and 7000. The quality of the pictures is above all praise, the video is very beautiful and clear. The batteries last for a long time. Pros: A very good device. I looked closely at DSLRs for a long time, at first I wanted to buy the D3100, but the day before the purchase I read about the release of this model. Characteristics impression and I bought it. I don't regret it. Holds battery very well. Cons below: A little uncomfortable grip, but if the first…

I am amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

An excellent model for beginners who want to try the SLR "taste". Not how disappointed she is. Its pros: 1. Great scope for creativity in terms of the number of modes and scenes; 2. Rotary screen; 3. Quality of materials and assembly; 4. Takes good quality pictures + when shooting in Raw, the possibility of post-processing = excellent image quality; 5. Having certain skills, you can get great videos. Cons: 1. A little bit small in size for a wide palm, the little finger will just slip off;

I like the product very much, fully consistent with my expectations.

Great camera for creative photography needs. The camera is not the first (there was a Zenith, Lumix fz50, Samsung nx11) If you don’t suffer from technofetishism, it’s an excellent camera! With its pros. 1) Matrix. Image quality comes first. 2) Working 1600-3200 ISO. The picture even with noise canceling turned off is impressive. 3)Rotary display. For macro and all kinds of unusual angles - an indispensable thing. Different cons: For me, there are very few. Maybe someone lacks buttons or a…

The right product for me, there were no problems.

After the initial DSLR, it’s a solid positive, ideas are realized without tension, as if by themselves! There are so many possibilities that you don't know where to start. You can confidently use the built-in plot programs. Different pros: Low noise at high ISO Intelligible screen + rotation in all directions. I adopted all the advantages from the "oldies", added HD video, interesting programs like "selective color", HDR, "miniature effect". Built-in processing after shooting (cropping…

I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

This is my first zk, before that there was an ordinary digital camera. The resulting photos are definitely pleasing. I read somewhere on the forum about what is better to take from 18-105, but there are some problems with delivery to my city, and most of it is int. stores are not mailed to us. I had to take it from 18-55, not to say that I was really upset, I'm still going to take a 35mm fix, because. I mostly shoot landscapes and a little less portraits. And I am very pleased with the camera…

Pros
  • Excellent image quality, convenient button layout, 2 ports.
Cons
  • It is difficult to come up with the flaws of the carcass itself, for me they simply do not exist. But the lens that I got with the carcass, this 18-55 upset me a little. Loud enough auto focus, you can clearly hear it when shooting video, but you can also shoot with manual).

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

In principle, to get acquainted with NIKON products, a very worthy model was bought with two KIT lenses 18-55mm and 55-200mm. And the most important thing is the hands that take pictures, because give a person a watering can for 1,000,0000 and nothing good will come of it =) And the other will get creations on a soap dish. =)) My advice is to EXPERIMENT with the modes and settings links to photos http://fotki. . Ru/users/nikitsinmaks/ P. S I'm not a professional I'm an amateur.

Pros
  • Affordable and relatively large functionality
Cons
  • Noisy at high ISOs, autofocus does not always work correctly (I rarely use it when the sun is bright and I can change my position)

Excellent product, the best quality.

My first SLR! I shot them mostly nature! As a tourist camera, it showed itself very well, although you can take a simpler model! In general, if you choose between 5100 and 3200, then I would take 5100 anyway! And if you don’t spare the money, then I already take 5200, a very good camera. for those who want to get high quality pictures, but are not going to make money on the photo! everything above is already more for the pros!) Good luck! Well, a couple of links to my photos with these…

Pros
  • Lightweight, can do a lot of things, for an amateur, that's it! Shoots at night is also excellent, up to 1600 iso is not bad at all! You can do more at slow shutter speeds, even with a whale lens.
Cons
  • crop Difficulties when shooting video with autofocus (I would say that you can’t find focus on the machine anymore). Many useless functions, such as photo processing, still have to catch up on a computer.

Great product, best quality.

There is only one serious remark about this camera - the built-in microphone is of poor quality. And the microphone input is made so that you can not connect third-party microphones. He needs a larger signal amplitude than standard microphones give out! Pay attention to this. So either the native expensive me-1 or the output from the recorder or recorder connect. the rest of the remarks are insignificant - could be a little faster. Competitors faster and more advanced are felt. Nikon is not so

Pros
  • compact, excellent (!) stretching picture (I shoot only in equal position), reliability - not a single glitch, convenient one-handed control when you get used to it
Cons
  • audio path

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

quite a great model. the purchase is unrealistically satisfied. for a beginner it will be the most! shortcomings are almost minimal. and the benefits are many. when choosing a DSLR, I didn’t even pay attention to kenon. fluctuated between D90 and D5100. settled on the latest model. first new model (April 2022). secondly, the rotary screen bribed. thirdly, the sensor is more helpful.

Pros
  • excellent color reproduction. the picture is juicy and voluminous just an excellent screen (besides swivel) is very convenient. light weight. at the expense of the size, to whom it is convenient. I have an average hand, it is convenient for me to hold this Nikon. not bulky. and the hand does not get tired. I took it with a whale lens 18-105 VR, very good results for whale glass. (Besides, a lens hood and a bag for the lens are included) light menu. Full HD video. the matrix from the D7000 is just gorgeous.
Cons
  • cap from the lens without a lace, I constantly forget it somewhere. the battery is rather weak, if you take pictures continuously enough for 5 hours of work. lack of an autofocus motor in the carcass. I would like more hot buttons on the case.

The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

I took it with a kit 18-105VR. I dreamed about two years, a month before the purchase I smoked and, no, I studied the issue. Initially, I stopped at 3200, but delving into the issue, I still chose 5100, the functionality is wider, and the swivel screen for creativity is only a plus. I also considered the Canons, but with the similarity of the performance characteristics, I think Nikon's design is more fun. After the purchase, I used an extended manual for a week, which, by the way, was very…

Pros
  • Build quality. Functional. Clear and intuitive control and settings. Image quality. Speed ​​of work. Price (took in May 2022).
Cons
  • Video, compared with a premium soap dish, the quality is noticeably weaker. But for amateur clips it is quite digestible. In a room without an external microphone, there is a lot of noise from autofocus, on the street the background clogs.

The brake is incredible, my old-fashioned Canon 7 years ago shoots many times faster. In Live View mode, you have to wait almost 1.5 seconds after pressing the shutter button before taking a photo. Proof: http://www. Imaging-resource. Com/PRODS/D5100/D5100A6. HTM Further, in the mode of shooting through the viewfinder, it is already better at about 0.3 seconds, but still slowly, at the level of mobile phone speed. For comparison, the same antediluvian Canon 350d 7 years ago has a lag from…

Pros
  • Soundly assembled, good optics for its category.
Cons
  • Ocheeeen clumsy and unhurried fotik. See comments.

The perfect product for any user!

This DSLR is in the category of the initial amateur level of the user and at this level it is simply magnificent and it is difficult to find fault in this price category. If you want to learn how to take pictures in manual modes (Mode M), then this camera is for you. With her I fell in love with photography. The automatic mode is also good, but you should not buy a DSLR, for shooting on the machine, for this there are soapboxes and superzooms. Tip: set the ISO to the function button, it’s…

Pros
  • Value for money, excellent camera for the money, low-noise matrix, relatively light, comfortable ergonomics in the hand lies like a glove, build quality, decent functionality, you can take great pictures.
Cons
  • (All the shortcomings are conditional, this is not a professional DSLR) Slow focusing in low light, misses. On the one with which I shot, in poor lighting, unnatural skin colors (bluish) and it was not always possible to remove this normally when correcting the RAW file. There is no "screwdriver" auto focus on lenses without a built-in motor, it will not work, only manually.

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

My first DSLR, after a gradual maturation, made the most of my previous "professional" compact and wanted more. I’ll make a reservation right away, it’s better to buy a carcass separately and an all-subject and more enlightened lens for it, for example, an inexpensive Tamron 24-75 / 2.8 . and you will be happy. I ran it around on vacation, there were almost 1500 photos, in total: I almost didn’t use 18mm focal lengths - I started taking pictures from 24mm, but I often rested on the 55mm whale

Pros
  • 1. Excellent photo quality (http://album. Foto. Ru:8080/photos/or/402804/2080767. Jpg) 2. Excellent FullHD video quality! 3. A huge number of settings and modern "chips" in the device. 4. Fairly compact and lightweight 5. Sharp and nicely patterned 18-55 whale lens 6. Low noise up to 800 ISO, then also bearable 7. Quality omnidirectional monitor
Cons
  • 1. Hemorrhoidal video shooting in the absence of constant and fast autofocus 2. Still, a slightly illogical quick menu, which, however, I got used to after 2 weeks of vacation 3. Many photo processing modes at once - had fun and forgot about them . it's better to pervert in the computer (the same Lightroom, for example).

Good and quality product, but there are flaws.

Impressions are compared in many ways with the former Pentax K-r. The device is really very sharp, the stub in the optics allows you to take good pictures even at fairly slow shutter speeds. Autofocus is very accurate, although cranky in low light conditions, despite the backlight. Unrealistically quiet shutter and whale lens. Color rendition is hardly worse than the famous Pentax one. Unlike the pentax, it does not fit so well with threaded lenses. The swivel screen, which I initially looked…

Pros
  • - very sharp - very quiet - good whale glass, with stabilizer and ultrasonic motor - plenty of branded accessories for sale, on ebay it's also inexpensive - matrix and processor as on the "semipro" D7000 - swivel screen
Cons
  • - the handle is too small for a large palm, perhaps not the best ergonomics - the battery is small, not very reliable battery cover

I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

I took it with the whale 18-55, then I bought another Sigma 18-200, and Nikkor 50 1.8 - I completely forgot about the whale - now it lies and gathers dust. I travel a lot, I am often in the mountains - the camera and 2 lenses are always in my backpack with other essentials - I do not use caps and plugs - 3 years flight is normal - no scratches. This winter, with a DSLR in my backpack, I flew well on a snowboard from a great height - everything in the backpack is shattered, except for the…

Pros
  • Good quality, good shooting speed - excellent balance of price and quality. (more details in the comments)
Cons
  • There is no "screwdriver" for autofocus, 30fps is not enough for FullHD these days.

Excellent product, the best quality.

For the first time I switched from a "soap box" to an amateur SLR camera. There was a choice between Nikon D3100 - D5100 . I put the whale lens aside, because I was not pleased with its drawing. I temporarily use a manual lens, Helios 37 A (link to photo http://fotki. . Ru/users/amidin/view/474757/?page=0). I realized that it was best to take a carcass, with a sigma 50-200 lens (from 7200in total) . The front lens of the sigma does not rotate, you can use filters. It has a good range of focal…

Pros
  • Good device. The color rendition is realistic, the noise level is not high, the rate of fire, there are no extra buttons. All as "doctor ordered".
Cons
  • Small battery life. Although, these are quibbles. 500 frames, with viewing each, with a monitor brightness of -1 . quite well. But you always want more. There is no screwdriver and optics are expensive for the device.

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

An excellent choice for a beginner, those who need decent quality for little money, or those who are experienced in photography, but do not have the funds for D3x :). I took it from my hands for 15 thank God, I didn’t notice any jambs during use, despite the tough attitude towards it (I shot it in light rain, in the wild snowfall on 11202222, I don’t pay attention to dust, heat and frost) , although it is not waterproof and not made of magnesium alloy. The quality of photos from the Nikon p500,

Pros
  • 1) Excellent photo quality. Sounds stupid, but it's true. 2) A decent matrix from the older model. 3) Durable. I carry it with me in a rag bag, it beats against things, against another camera, against my side - all for nothing (pah-pah-pah). 4) A simple menu, with a very wide functionality. 5) Holds fairly high ISOs with no problems. 6) Good lens included. Whoever says anything, but with a whale 18-55 you can take a decent shot. And there are thousands of examples of this - look on the Internet. It's amazing how such a cheap lens gives such a decent picture. 7) Convenient swivel screen. The screen itself is of decent quality and of sufficient size. 8) Sufficiently high shooting speed.
Cons
  • There are no special claims to the camera, claims to the photographer. Of course, I would like moisture resistance, a full frame, a second screen, two flash drives and a screwdriver in the carcass, but that's another money. The problem with the 5100 for me is that I don't see any cropped camera that would be noticeably better. The only way to drastically improve the quality of a photo is to take a full-size matrix (or medium format :)). The remaining improvements will be "given" by optics and straight arms.

A practical product, nothing to complain about.

The reviews describe in detail the advantages of this SLR. The only thing I will add is a large number of manual settings and built-in ones. Of the minuses - WEAK SHUTTER MECHANISM. During a week-long trip to Europe on the second day, the camera jammed the shutter right during the focus adjustment. The inscription "Shutter button error, press the shutter again." A call to Nikon's service gave the following: "Yes, a known error. Mechanical damage to the shutter - jamming. Replacement under…

Pros
  • Everything has already been written - the matrix, build quality, etc.
Cons
  • release gate

I'm very happy, it really is worth buying.

I have been using the camera for 3 months, more than 3000 shots. The device in terms of its technical capabilities can hardly be called amateur. There is almost everything for shooting. Plus a nice bonus - video in FullHD format. Before her, he had a Canon 350d, Olympus E500, Nikon D40x. I took the D5100 because of the matrix from the older D7000, compact size and weight, swivel display and working ISO 3200. For some, there are not enough buttons . but I personally find it convenient that…

Pros
  • Compact amateur camera with professional features. Great functionality.
Cons
  • Somewhat uncomfortable grip for big-armed. "Cunning" battery. Not the most comfortable viewfinder. High price.
