@mattabiko24 I bought it for my photography class and I have taken some great photos. The nikon is an awesome camera for a begginer :) hope this helps! Good luck on your camera hunt.
@owxkittyoffcial for me it sucks but at the same time its good but it suck cuz slow shutter speed an no video thats the only thing ohhh an you have to buy lens that are AF-S if not you have to work it manuel :/
@hghgh685 Well if Nikon were to add a focusing motor, live view, movie mode, and an external mic input onto the D3000, it would be just as expensive as the D7000. Just because it's cheap doesn't mean it sucks. The only reason why the D3000 is so cheap is because it is meant for the entry level consumers who have no idea wtf is a focusing motor is, the difference between an AF and AF-S lenses are, or even how to plug in an external mic. Cheap doesn't mean "suck"...
@SouljaKidDa1 no this camera does not record video, it does however do good pictures with good sharpness and clarity. if you want video i would get the new D3100 model. it has HD video and 14 megapixels. Digitalrev did a review on the 3100 as well
@Ainh0u I use a Nikon, but I'd recomment the 1100D. It's much more advanced than the D3000, probably even has better live view mode than the Nikon D3100(and if you'll concider that one, might as well go for a 550D/600D). And the thing is, if you're on a tight budget, the EOS 1100 will give you the best value for your money in this price range.
Im really honestly really bummed out over the video settings that it doesnt have :( But I really want this camera So I guess im just going to buy a digital camera to record... Hmmm thats alot of cameras to lugg arround
@xmtsystems The D90 is a great camera, it has a built in auto focus motor and comes with the 18-105mm which is better then the 18-55. It's old tech but it is worth the price. And that's why the value of the D90 did not drop. And it is only a $50 dollar difference. And for the fact you can use more lens' then the D5100 is worth the $800.
@Freepepsi42 No doubt the D90 is still a great camera, but comparing kit lenses isn't going to convince me that the D90 is a better body. I've shot with a D90, and I've shot with a D5100, and I prefer the 5100 from my personal experience. Not having an internal af motor in the 5100 isn't that big of a deal to me, since most of the new lenses coming out are af-s lenses anyway. I don't mind manual focusing with the older lenses I have. The sensor in the 5100 is also much better. To each his own =)
question : when i try to take flash photos on my D3000 my camera doesn't let me take the shot..and were the USB connection is at this weird burning smell comes out of there when i try and take a shot with the flash on...is there something wrong with the flash on my camera or and i doing something wrong ?..someone help me out here please. ??
My brother in law is an A-hole with ADD. I wonder if this would be a good first dSLR for him? I don't think he cares about CCD or CMOS, as long as the pictures look great. No live view could be a problem.
Hey, hoping if anyone can help, I'm look at getting this camera for aviation photography, but I need a lens that's around 10X optical zoom+, if anybody can help me to find one or tell me what I'm looking for ( as in what number will it be...(**-**mm), It will be much appreciated
@Materpal well, depending on if your interested in video taking or still images or both, i would probably consider the d3100, it has better image quality and comes with video taking. (: hope i helped!
@Materpal oh, and if your starter then i suggest nikon d3000! its not as complexed and would be cheaper and more simpler if you were only a beginner :D
so can you do those cool slow shutter speed pictures were like u keep the camera in one spot like facing a car and u take a picture as the car goes by and the picture shows like a light streek from the cars?
i hate to sound like a downcast dave here, but really when u spend soo much money for a camera (in my opinion) you would want a film function, can a photographer tell me how come they spend so much to take still pictures. :S?
Is the guide mode good for a group of new photographers who don't know a thing about shutter speed, aperture or ISO? I could teach them a bit, but would it be good?
@KEBokeh what is better? canon or nikon and i have a canon eos 1000d and i really need a help because it's on manual and when i capture it the lights keep on lighting but it doesnt capture. help please? is it broken or what? i really need your answer.
i've been trying to decide what DSLR I want to get as my first camera. So far this camera has everything I need except I watched someone do something cool with their camerica and wondering if this camera will do the same thing. Can you just set it on open shutter and hold the shutter open as long as you hold the button down?
@chippowzer Yes, you can. I'f you're looking for a good quality, affordable, and easy to use DSLR, you definitely will not be disappointed with the d3000. I got mine a few weeks ago (it was my first dslr as well), and I love this camera. I just wish I had the $ for a new lens. The kit lens's aperture won't go any lower than f 3.5 (which goes up to 5.6 when you are all the way zoomed out), which can make shooting in low light pretty difficult at times.
@drgnfrc13 which lense shall i get. im also beginner. i dont want problem like urs n i want a lense that generaly help me shoot most possible thing i c
@living1dream That depends on what you will be taking pictures of. The 18-55mm kit lens that it comes with is a good first step, since it gives you a fairly decent range of settings, but after you have gotten some experience with dslr photography, you will find out what it is that suits you personally. For example, I like to shoot mainly in low light conditions, so for me, a lens with a maximum aperture of 2.8 or larger would be best (the lower the #, the larger the aperture).
@living1dream It is probably best to just start out with the kit lens, then go from there. If you find that you are not getting the amount of zoom you would like to have, then you could look into getting the 55-200mm, if you are like me, and find that you are not getting very good results in low light conditions, the first step would be to get an external flash (I like the nikon sb-600), then if you still have problems, look into getting a new lens.
i also bought this for my first dslr... and I'm happy that i did buy this over the canons 1000d... both are good cameras for beginners but i got better offer from nikon,it fitted my hand beter and the 11 point autofocuse made my mind. but now all my frieds are looking me bad at me and say "thats not a good camera " and i ask why? and they dare to awnser that its not canon...
what the..? if i use nikon thats my own thing.. and they dont know sigle thing about cameras... :D bo
I bought this camera today. I notice that after taking a picture, it takes like 1-2 seconds to show up on the review screen. (vs instantaneous when I used a canon oes rebel.)...should the pic take so long to show up and if not, how can i change it for it to show up immediately?
i have this camera and i really like it, but for people that think they're actually going to get serious about photography, get a d90 or d5000. i've had a d3000 since christmas and i'm saving for a d90 right now. you'll pretty much just grow out of it. with electronics like this, always buy more than you need at the moment.
Worst camera that NIKON has ever made....people don't waste your money on this camera. If you are a beginner get the D5000 or D90....DON'T waste your money on this! Have any questions I'd be more than happy to answer some questions.
What does no live view mean? Does it mean u can't see the photo wen u are taking a photo or u can't see it on the screen? Someone please please please reply! Thanks
@Darz2k10 unlike the small compact dig. cams where you see on the screen what you are shooting (live view - as you are moving the camera around), with the d3000 u don't get that, meaning, u see through the viewfinder to "aim"

If you find that you are not getting the amount of zoom you would like to have, then you could look into getting the 55-200mm, if you are like me, and find that you are not getting very good results in low light conditions, the first step would be to get an external flash (I like the nikon sb-600), then if you still have problems, look into getting a new lens.

i also bought this for my first dslr... and I'm happy that i did buy this over the canons 1000d... both are good cameras for beginners but i got better offer from nikon,it fitted my hand beter and the 11 point autofocuse made my mind. but now all my frieds are looking me bad at me and say "thats not a good camera " and i ask why? and they dare to awnser that its not canon...
what the..? if i use nikon thats my own thing.. and they dont know sigle thing about cameras... :D bo

I bought this camera today. I notice that after taking a picture, it takes like 1-2 seconds to show up on the review screen. (vs instantaneous when I used a canon oes rebel.)...should the pic take so long to show up and if not, how can i change it for it to show up immediately?

@frakusv2 maybe it's because of the shutter speed you're using. usually the longer the speed, the longer the picture takes to process

@PBandJeIIy I found out the issue. When active-d lighting is on. it takes a while. when turned off, it shows up much quicker.

i have this camera and i really like it, but for people that think they're actually going to get serious about photography, get a d90 or d5000. i've had a d3000 since christmas and i'm saving for a d90 right now. you'll pretty much just grow out of it. with electronics like this, always buy more than you need at the moment.

@austin1052 maybe the body only, but are you sure its brand new? I dont care how much it costs I got mine :)
mrhenderson 1 year ago
@mrhenderson Yeah. Brand New with the lens. Amazon always has amazing prices. I ordered a Pentax Kx on friday. I can't wait for it to get here. xD
austin1052 1 year ago
@mrhenderson I got it for $499 but with taxes and a 2 year warranty, a memory card, and a lens filter; it ended up costing around $640.
So in a way your right.
Cameras are expensive but well worth it!

Worst camera that NIKON has ever made....people don't waste your money on this camera. If you are a beginner get the D5000 or D90....DON'T waste your money on this! Have any questions I'd be more than happy to answer some questions.

What does no live view mean? Does it mean u can't see the photo wen u are taking a photo or u can't see it on the screen? Someone please please please reply! Thanks
Darz2k10 1 year ago
@Darz2k10 unlike the small compact dig. cams where you see on the screen what you are shooting (live view - as you are moving the camera around), with the d3000 u don't get that, meaning, u see through the viewfinder to "aim"
