This was my first DSLR camera and even for that I was quite disappointed. Especially for indoor photography without flash it was horrible. If you just want to play around with the different settings the user friendly mode can help you with some understanding if you do not want to read the theory...

Easy to use, even forbeginners
I had been on the market for a DLSR since fall of 2009. I've always owned Nikon point and shoots so when I started reading reviews of DSLR's I obviously leaned towards Nikon. Living rural, I was unable to to run out and handle any cameras right away.

This camera gives my pictures a professional touch, even though I have no idea how to take a good picture. Just what I needed when taking pictures of my kids.

"The Nikon D3000 is excellent!"
I had this bought for Chistmas my first SLR. The Nikon D3000 camera is easy to use, lots of good settings, like the night mode is perfect for fireworks, and the sports setting is perfect for fast sports, so long as you have the camera still.
Pros:
- very easy to use
- crisp pictures
Cons:
- none so far

Excellent for the beginner who wants to learn DSLR photography
I bought this camera because I wanted to see if I was interested in DSLR photography. I've been using the camera for a few weeks now and I really love it. It was inexpensive compared to higher end models but has excellent image quality and allows me to learn the skills of DSLR photography.
