Breathtaking digital SLR image quality and easy operation highlight the 10.2-megapixel D3000-Nikon's friendliest D-SLR ever. Compact and capable, the D3000 is compatible with a broad range of world-famous NIKKOR lenses and includes the versatile 3x, 18-55mm Zoom-NIKKOR with Silent-Wave Motor autofocusing and Nikon VR image stabilization to combat picture blur caused by camera shake for sharper handheld pictures. Special moments are captured faithfully at up to 3 frames-per-second and displayed on a bright, 3-inch LCD monitor. The D3000's split-second shutter response eliminates the annoyance of shutter lag. To further simplify picture-taking in special situations such as portraits, sports, landscapes, and more, the D3000 features icon-identified Scene Modes that deliver beautiful results automatically in otherwise complex situations. Additional Nikon technologies elevate picture quality and guard against picture-taking mistakes. Fast, accurate 11-point autofocus delivers razor sharpness. 3D Color Matrix Metering II and Nikon EXPEED image processing work with an exclusive Scene Recognition System for precise automatic exposures and rich, vivid color. Making the D3000 an even smarter choice are its exclusive Retouch functions for creative fun and the onboard Guide Mode that's ready to lend a reassuring hand to take the pictures you've always wanted. 10.2-Megapixel DX-format Imaging Sensor

I love my new D3000. I've only recently gotten big into photography, and after having joined the college Photography Society and playing with what they had, as well as stealing my father's Olympus on occasion for our trips around Ireland, I NEEDED to get my own camera. As described, it's lighter than the Canon and perfect for someone just starting off with digital photography, and is sick of the regular point and shoots. Can't stop me from snapping now!
 The wrong camera to buy... August 30, 2010
Ziggy Stardust (NYC, NY USA)
I read the early reviews and it looked like a nice replacement for my d40x (which i had given to my daughter). Nice camera when first holding but image quality is gravely lacking. My d40x took somewhat better pictures (they should have been the same as they use the same sensor and this is just a repackaged d40x). The problem. I'm not sure, but blur, softness, inconsistency and lack of detail/sharpness are no fun. I've tried many lens'. The software is somehow flawed. ADR which should have helped the camera slows it down terribly and does not significantly improve picture quality. (I get better pics from my S90 compact --- small sensor or not --- or ancient Pentax DSLR)).
The camera would have been somewhat disappointing a few years ago; in today's market it is unacceptable (picture quality and speed). For those interested in video and an excellent/tilting LCD, look elsewhere. Spend more and get the D5000. Better yet (and I'm a Nikon guy), get the Canon T2i.
Nikon really blew it; a D90 it is not. It's not even a Pentax K-X. Too bad.
Absolutely a great camera August 19, 2010

In anticipation of becoming a new dad, I wanted to purchase a camera that would capture all the moments of my baby boy with great and reliable quality. So I decided to look into getting a DSLR camera. I did research on a variety of cameras, in particular one's from Cannon and Nikon. I wanted to buy a DSLR camera that was easy to use and at a reasonable cost. I decided to purchase the Nikon D3000 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera based on the reviews I've read, and it fit my budget.
First off, I am not in anyway an expert in taking pictures, and I never used a DSLR camera before this purchase. So being the newbie with DSLR cameras, I found the Nikon D3000 10.2MP incredibly easy to use. The automatic focus has performed wonderfully in capturing clear and sharp images. The picture quality of this camera is 10X better than my old digital pocket camera as expected. There are still a lot of options on this camera I have yet to explore, but I can tell I'm going to have a lot of fun figuring out how those options can help take even better shots.
The only issue I have with this camera, and I guess with all DSLR's in general, it's a bit of a pain to take around because of its bulkiness. But other than that, I absolutely recommend this camera, especially for first time users of DSLR cameras, like me.
And so far, I haven't missed a perfect shot of my new son.
Great product Highly reccommended August 18, 2010
