First let me confess I am a rank amateur. I wanted a camera to be able to take nice smiley pictures, nothing to elaborate. Good value for the price. Very easy to use and takes good pictures.

Ordered it almost 2 years ago, and it's my baby to this day! Served me well over vacations and other special days. It's a great DSLR for those beginning and wanted to get better. You could do nothing to your pictures, or you can get meticulous with them. Great buy!

I just purchased this camera last week and have been very excited and happy with it. Although, I have not used it a great deal yet, it is a very impressive piece of electronic equipment.My first impression, is that it is not a simple camera. This is my first DSLR since using an FM (all manual)35mm SLR in school, about 20 years ago. My degree was in photography and cinema, but I do not use it professionally. So, with that said, it might make more sense to tell you I understand f-stops, shutter speed, depth of field and many more of the relevant technical issues of photography, but only using a film camera.Even with this knowledge, I have found it a challenge to understand everything this camera is capable of doing.For that reason, even though this is an entry level camera, know that it is a bit complicated to understand it's full potential of capabilities. You will make excellent photographs using the "auto" settings and not understanding the rest of the camera. If you take the time to work with the camera and use the manual as a guide, the camera will be better understood.As for what I like about the camera: (1.)It's fast and easy to use in the auto mode. (2.)The grip is comfortable and very functional. (3.) Color balance is good with the built in flash (not sure how itfunctions over longer distances...haven't tried it. May need something more powerful) (4.) Light weightand not too much of a burden to carry in a backpack or arm bag. (5.) Love the burst shooting. Three framesper second is suitable for the amateur. (6.) Battery does not fall out the bottom of the camera..it has afriction hold and will not come out easily if the access door comes open (I read this as a complaint inanother review). (7.) An amateur will appreciate the "dummy" menu since photo terminology needs to bestudied to understand.As for what I dislike about the camera: (1.) The fact that I spent a lot of money on it and have to carefulthink about how I handle it. It is not a beat around camera. Buy a point and shoot for snapshots if you tendto be rough on electronic equipment. (2.) Monitor gets dirty quick and hoping I won't scratch it from cleaning it frequently. (3.) A pretty large learning curve for understanding all of the functions....you will need to practice a lot.I will say in closing, this is a great little camera for the hobby of photography. It is a great little camerafor professionals, I imagine, as well. Although, not a professional quality (durability) camera, it will suitthe average person. Be aware, it is mostly all plastic, like most cameras these days, and requires carefulhandling to avoid damage.Oh, one last thing. Do what I did initially and buy a second battery. They are expensive, but at least youcan charge one to have when the first one dies. Using the flash cuts into the life of the battery. It's not that noticeable, but it is something to think about. I also bought a transfer cable so that I don't have toremove the card as often. The review of different memory cards had a common thread that many are not as durable as they would like. I figured not removing the card would help to protect it from wear and tear.Good luck with your camera.Tim, Ohio

I bought this camera basically because I was tired of the landscape pictures taken by a point shoot camera.There are a lot many point shoot cameras which take awsome picture but the problem with them is that you cannot specifically choose a subject to focus on in the pic.Heres where SLR cameras are really good , and this being my first SLR I am totally satisfied by D3100.Although I have a simple suggestion if you are buying this camera please make sure you buy a high focus lense such as the 55-200 mm nikkor .the 18 - 55 mm lense isnt enough to shoot gr8 pics.

I am so disappointed in this camera. Perhaps I just don't know how to use it correctly but I am disappointed that even on Auto, I can't get good photos. I am very much an amateur but desperately want to be able to take beautiful photos of my kids. I thought purchasing this expensive camera would get me at least some decent shots on Auto. I get the same poor quality photos that I used to get on my cheap Sony camera. Yes, I need to learn how to use this camera properly but I expected MUCH better results that I am receiving even at less than perfect adjustments. I have read the manual, watched YouTube videos and played around with different settings but still get poor results (too dark, out of focus, etc). And the zoom in distance is awful. My cheap Sony zoomed in WAY more than this camera...the zoom is almost a joke. I guess I have to spend $150 MORE to get more zoom. I feel more than defeated by this camera.

For specifics on what this model can/can't do, read the other reviews. This is my overall opinion in comparison to other models and brands, but most importantly: value.I am an amateur, so photography is not my source of income - it is a hobby. I have been looking for an entry-level DSLR for some time now, comparing brands and doing extensive research. I have tried a few (Canon, Olympus, Pentax) and was left unsatisfied until now. The new D3100 is simply an awesome product FOR THE PRICE. It was designed to be an entry-level DSLR, and it IS. The ease of use, functionality, and design are above average for it's price range. Yes, there are areas that are not perfect, but this is NOT a professional series camera. You get what you pay for, and with this model you actually get more than what you pay for. If you want extreme precision in settings then get a pro model.Entry level means you're fairly new to DSLR, and this model allows you to learn specific "pro" functions to fine tune. Other brands may offer the same, but not to the extent that the D3100 does. Learning about Aperture, ISO, lighting, and so on, takes time to master and this is a perfect model to start with. If you have 4-5 thousand bucks to spend, get the D7000; if you have more to spend, then get the D3. The D3100 is 6-7 hundred bucks and a few extras like a super zoom, speedlight/diffusers, spare battery, lens filters, monopod, and a bag is really all you need. I just got all of these and have a little over a grand invested. Like I said, it's a great entry level DSLR camera for the price. If you have a lot more money to invest then by all means get a better model. I've spent countless hours researching brands/models/accessories and decided on this one, and I'm very happy with it. A few of my friends are professional photographers, each using a different brand; they all were very impressed with this model but even more so after I told them the price. A couple years down the road I'll invest the money and upgrade. But until then, this model will satisfy my learning and enjoyment experience with it's functionality, ease of use, and Nikon's reputation of quality.I've done Portrait, Landscape, Sports, and Live Band (low light + action) shots and emailed the pics to my Pro friends for their input. They are all amazed at the quality that this "entry-level" camera is capable of.FYI, my gear:D3100 with 18-55 AFS VR lens that came with it55-200mm AFS VR super zoom lensSB-600 speedlight with StoFen Omni-bounce diffusersNikon 52mm NC lens filterSigma DG 52mm Multi-coated UV filterManfrotto 679B monopodOpteka TH20 ball head w/quick releaseNikon spare batteryNikon lens cleaning pen3 color diffusers for pop-up flashLCD screen protector(s)Lowepro fastpack camera bagLaCrosse battery charger and Eneloop rechargeable batteries for the speedlight......... all for less than 1200 bucks... everything I need for indoor/outdoor, action, and low light shots.

I need all the help I can get when it comes to really knowing how to take good pictures.The camera takes very nice pictures. and I am sure when I get some Photography classes that it will even take better pictures.I am looking forward, to be able to use More of the features beside just the point and shoot, and picking up more of the lenses for it.The camera is lightweight and I am completely satisfied with this produce

I absolutely love this camera. It is everything I was looking for. I like to use the manual settings, except when photographing kids--simply because the kids are always moving FAST. I like the quick response when the auto settings are on, since I have been able to capture lots of cute moments that pass in a blink!

budget is really important while buying a camera, and this one has so much potential for its priceit's range will probably be useful for a couple of years before you "need" to upgrade. and lets face it, nowadays you almost have to upgrade every year.

This camera takes better pictures then I have ever seen from any standard digital camera or phone camera. It's better then a simple point and shoot, handles low light and movement much better then other cameras. The level of detail on close ups is amazing.I would recommend it for a starting amateur photographer to get them started with DSLR's or someone who wants a little closer to professional level pictures but is new to higher end cameras.

We've got four kids, all involved in sports and other activities so a decent camera is a necessity. We've had a series of small 35mm and digital cameras over the years, but decided to upgrade to something better. I read many, many reviews of different cameras in this price range, and decided the Nikon D3100 was what we wanted.I bought this "kit" which includes a 18-55 mm lens, the camera body and the strap. I used a memory card we already had and played around with the camera to get a feel for it. I realized right away that I needed a better/longer lens for long distance sports shots, a bigger memory card and a bag to carry it all in. But I am really happy with the performance of this camera so far.It takes great action shots and video, and does well in low light even without the flash (which pops up automatically). I consider myself an amateur when it comes to cameras and terminology, but even without much knowledge I can tell this is a quality instrument. I'm yet to master all the many options it offers, but for our family use this camera is perfect.I bought a Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4.0-5.6 Di LD Macro Zoom Lens with Built In Motor for Nikon Digital SLR here on Amazon for $159, a Transcend 16 GB memory card for $16, and a Case Logic SLRC-202 Medium SLR Camera Bag for $35 to complete our camera setup. The longer lens allows us to zoom in the kids out on the playing field or up on the stage, and it works perfectly with this camera.This is a really nice mid-priced camera, and I highly recommend it. It needs a better lens to really be useful, but once you have that you're all set to take hundreds of excellent photos.
