As a mom of 3 little ones, I was so frustrated with the pictures I was getting of them with my old camera. I decided it was time to step up to a dSLR. After reading all the reviews and researching, I decided on the Nikon d3100. I have been SO thrilled and happy with my decision! This camera is awesome. Right when I took it out of the box, I was so happy with the weight of the camera (doesnt seem as bulky as you would expect a dSLR to be). It takes beautifully crisp and clear pictures even if you are just using it on Auto mode. No matter the lighting, the pictures always come out great for me. Anyone with young kids knows this is a MUST because sometimes you cant manipulate lighting, etc. when you need a spur of the moment shot of a big first or something cute they are doing. One night I took a picture of my baby on Auto in a completely dark room, and it came out very clear and clean looking. I have been learning how to use the camera in manual mode, and am getting BEAUTIFUL shots. It has been pretty easy to learn how to use this camera. I am not trying to be a professional, but I feel as though I am able to get semi-professional looking shots of my kids with this camera. I absolutely recommend this camera for any beginner! I couldnt be more satisfied with my purchase. THANKS Nikon for a wonderful high quality camera!
