Nikon D3000
The Nikon D3000 is the entry level Nikon Digital SLR. It is aimed at anyone who is looking for a step up from a compact digital camera or anyone who is looking to transfer to a Digital SLR from a 35mm camera. Entry level gives the impression of a basic camera. This is not really true.

[REVIEW-NIKON D3000 DSLR]
This 10.2 megapixel camera is Nikon's new entry model, supplied with an 18–55mm (27–82 film equivalent) lens with vibration reduction. Sensor dust reduction is by sensor vibration. The medium resolution 75mm LCD doubles as the camera status screen.
Pros:
- The images from the camera are consistently well exposed
- Colour is generally good, except under incandescent light where auto white balance fails
- Ergonomics are excellent and the noises – shutter and mirror slap – are amazingly refined
- It does not feel cheap
Cons:
- Nikon pinch the pennies on their low end models – no auto bracketing
- a limited range of auto-focus lenses (there is no focus drive in the body)
- poor LCD resolution and no live view.

Nikon has been raising the bar on their entry-level DSLRs. While the D3000 is intended to be their most affordable model, it is using a variation of the 10MP sensor and the same AF module on the D200, which was a $1699 prosumer model that was in very high demand merely a few years ago back in 2006.
