My hubby is a camera geek. He has a Sony something or other and a Minolta whadya call it. Both are DSLRs and both use the same lenses and batteries (something about Minolta becoming Sony.) I tried to play with his cameras when he let me, but Im not quite ready for those. However, I am more than qualified to get something a little nicer than a point and shoot. I watch Attack of the Show, and they reviewed this on "Gadget Pron" a few months ago and they gave it a 4.5 out of 5. For them, that means they really, really, really like it. Really. OK, I guess I should look into this more. So I read a bunch of reviews and decided to take the plunge. I am glad I did. This is a great camera for someone who has no clue what "aperture" and "F-stop" means but wants to learn. With the auto mode, you can take nice pictures right away, yet you can twist the dial and play with the menus moments later to learn how to make your pictures even better. I also bought a zoom lens, Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR [Vibration Reduction] Zoom Nikkor Lens , so that I can take close up photos of the lions whiskers. My one minor gripe is that I cant seem to get the software to load properly. I dont NEED this because I can get other programs to read the raw format, but it would have been nice to have. That said, I havent actually shot anything in the raw format yet, and I can download and view my non-raw pictures just fine. This is a great starter DSLR. Its light (for a DSLR) and takes great pictures, and its fairly inexpensive. It comes with a nice lens. Highly recommended.

I am a typical parent that takes pictures of school plays, vacations, trips to amusement parks, birthday parties, sleepovers, family reunions, kids playing, etc. and I wanted SLR quality photos. I originally purchased the Canon G10, which was the top-of-the-line point when I bought it. I paid almost as much at the time as I did for my D3000. Back then, I thought at the price I paid, I would get SLR quality with the G10 point and shoot. Although I still love my G10 for a grab-and-go camera, it is still just a point and shoot without the ability to get SLR-quality pictures. This D3000 is my first SLR and I am so glad I have both a point and shoot and an SLR. I purchased my D3000 with the Nikor 70-200 lens (for sporting events - glad I did). My neighbor bought a D90 and we compared picture quality of identical objects we took pictures of. My D3000 measured up to the D90 is almost every picture! I cant take video like the D90, and granted, the D90 is a far more advanced camera meant for more seasoned photographers who can afford it. If you are looking for an amazing camera with spectacular, professional pictures without spending a ton, this camera is perfect. I dont fully understand the manual settings yet (still learning), but the D3000 has several preset settings that I use all of the time and they work very well. Each picture, time after time, ceases to amaze me. This camera proves that a quality SLR outfit is finally priced right for someone looking to graduate from a point and shoot to SLR. There is DEFINITELY a difference.

This camera is our first dSLR so I think we are Nikons target audience for this product. Friends and family have other (more expensive) Nikon dSLRs and we have always been impressed with everything from image quality and ease of use to physical aspects of body design and construction quality. When we entered the dSLR market, I was open to all high end makes and shopped around to find one that met our minial requirements. The D3000 has met and surpassed our requirements and many we didnt know to look for. I think it serves as a great starting point into the dSLR world and will give a perspective and appreciation for the few features that it may not have, though it may take a few years to discover them. This model has the Guide feature which explains right on the screen what the different settings are used for and how to adjust them so its like having the instruction manual built into the camera, a big feature for dSLR newbies! Ill skip and leave tech specs and arcane details to the photo-philes and stat geeks but suffice it to say that this camera wont disappoint anyone but an advanced user and at the price point, is a rewarding choice.

I love this camera. Its my first DSLR and I bought it because it was affordable and I was taking a photography class. Im thrilled with this camera so far, and Ive learned a lot with it. I have the two zoom lenses that came with the kit which should last me for a while. Bottom line, this camera takes EXCELLENT photos, Im extremely pleased with this purchase. Its worth every penny. Update: Ive actually now completed my photography class and I used this camera every step of the way - its a GREAT camera. Takes beautiful photos. My only complaint would be that it doesnt actually have a video mode. However, if Id done more reading, Id have found that the D3100 is the one that has the video mode, not D3000. Still, Im thrilled with this camera. Im really excited to eventually get a macro lens for it, too.

I bought this camera to give to my wife for her birthday. Shes an avid SLR hobbiest and although shes no professional, she knows and applies more than basics to her shots. I wanted to get her a camera that would allow her to do everything she knows how to do, but not be intimidating in control and features. I looked between the Nikon and Canon and eventually went with the Nikon because it had about the same features with a better price. If I was more concerned about upgradeability I probably would have purchased the Canon. The 18-55mm zoom lens is extremely versatile and the features are great. It basically shoots instantaneously when you hit the button, and the three shots per second work fantastic. Overall it has been everything we wanted in a camera, and the results speak for themselves, she has shots that look professional (she says it was all the camera). A nice bonus is that even for its size, its fairly light weight. I would reccomend this camera for any hobbiest looking for a good digital camera and you dont need video.

My previous digital camera was a Sony point-n-shoot camera that I used for almost 4 years. The camera helped me get many good photos, but close to my sons first birthday I wanted something better. Got this camera along with 55-200mm lense, and boy am I glad that I did. I have take some amazing photos and my friends and family have really liked it. I have taken some memorable photos my Son and I would have to say that, I would not be able to do that without this camera. Well, I am comparing the camera with my point-n-shoot camera, I guess point-n-shoot cameras have evolved since 2005 but DSLR with replaceable lens will help you take many good pictures. Only thing I did not like about this camera which was not a criteria when I placed this order which you should also consider is the video recording capability. The follow up version of D3000 i.e. D3100 has video recording as well. Also, Time lapse recording is missing.

When I heard that this was a great camera for starters, I was worried that it would be too basic. No need to worry, it has a lot to offer! This camera is perfect for me. Its a great size and great price. Plus, its packed with useful features. My favorite feature so far is the ability to crop and edit photos and create smaller images from within the camera menu. Im capable of doing it myself on my computer, but I get too busy sometimes. Im sick of having thousands of unedited, unusable photos on my hard drive. This way, I can choose my favorite shots and share them immediately, as well as save a few for more advanced editing if I have the time. The camera does a good job of allowing you to have a range of control. If youre looking for D-SLR picture quality with little to no effort, theres a mode for that. If you want to be in full control, theres a mode for that, too. Plus everything in between. Im very happy so far!

This is the third Nikon digital camera I have owned, and my first SLR. I have always been impressed by the quality of the Nikon brand, and this camera is no exception. Its easy to use but also comes with many more options than your standard point-and-shoot camera. I was taking amazing photos in no time at all that are of noticeably better than my old Nikon Coolpix. I use a non-glare filter with this camera and havent had any problems with it whatsoever. The biggest adjustment is getting used to using the viewfinder instead of the LCD screen to frame your photos, but I find that I really dont miss that feature all that much. The camera is also much bigger to lug around than a point-and-shoot, but thats the price you have to pay for photos that will literally blow you out of the water. I highly recommend this camera as an introduction to SLR photography.

The camera came in in great condition! I was worried since it is a used camera, but there isn’t anything wrong with it it seems. I am very very happy with this! It also came with everything that the company listed it had and was packaged very securely.

I got this for my wife for Christmas and she couldnt wait to open it. Litterally. She used the excuse that she want to use it to take pictures christmas morning, but she has taken nearly a thousand pictures since it arrived last week. It is not the latest model with live view on the display, you actually have to look through the viewfinder to know what you are pointed at. This is a plus to me since the screen doesnt stay on all the time and drain the battery as quickly. The camera itself has more options than you can imagine if you have only ever had a point and shoot model. I got the Bag/DVD starter kit with it. The case holds the camera with 18-55 lense perfectly with a room for a few small items. The DVD helps you to figure out all the settings that are available. This camera does not have an internal driver (motor) to power the auto lenses so any additional lenses you purchase need to have their own drivers. This makes them a little more expensive, but at a few hundred dollars each you want to make sure you get the right piece.
