Nikon D3000 Review
The Nikon D40 was an innovative digital camera, not only for Nikon, but also for the completely entry-level industry of the DSLR industry. What created the D40 so different to what had gone before was its stylish customer interface, which was designed to describe, rather than show, key capturing...

Joy Short-lived
This camera served me well for two years. It was easy to use and offered enough features for my needs. However, after about a year and a half, it died. Even when the battery was newly charged, the camera would turn on briefly and then die.

Nikon D3000 dont enter on this level
Hi there if you are going to buy an entry level DSLR I would suggest stop and don't buy it because its not worth the money you put in. Entry level DSLR means the one like Nikon DSLR D3000. They are good but they just good not great.

Nikon D3000 18-55 VR Kit review
Beginner-friendly features, but it fails to provide efficient controls and competitive image quality for when the beginners become more demanding.

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...

Great camera for a beginner
I have't touched a camera in a long time and I'm new to photography. But so far it's a great camera. I love it and can't wait to use in the upcoming celebration. P.s. had great service from the buyer.

Nikon D3000 review Review
The 10.2-megapixel D3000 digital SLR is very much suited to beginners seeking to dip their toes further into the photographic ocean. Not only does it offer guidance on how to use it but there are full manual controls for when your know-how increases.
Pros:
- Very good kit lens
- 10.2-megapixel resolution is perfectly adequate
- Beginner-friendly
Cons:
- No live view or movie mode
- Manual adjustments are time-consuming
