Nikon D3000

For beginners, the Nikon is a superb choice. Its built-in wizard is extremely useful and offers a huge amount of scope for learning. And, for those who quickly outgrow the basic kit lens, Nikon's range of pro lenses will surely satisfy, for a price.

Mediocre, for a Nikon.

A few more things: -I shoot a lot of concerts, and this is just NOT FAST ENOUGH, even in Manual. -The shutter release is fast, but to change settings you have to wade through dozens of awful menus. -You're better off buying a D40.
Pros:
  • It's still a Nikon, so the pictures are top-quality, and the 18-55 kit lens is really a great lens
  • It has a big screen
Cons:
  • It is the worst SLR that Nikon has made
  • The button layout is sub-par
  • The low-light performance is fairly bad, much worse than my 5-year-old D2h, which is known for its issues in low light.

Moved up to a D3000 from a Panasonic FZ-28 Lumix bridge camera, and I was not disappointed. The lack of live view is hard to compensate for if, like me, you're used to snapping photos from the LCD rather than the viewfinder, but the crystal clear image offered through the finder on this SLR is more...
Pros:
  • Excellent image quality
  • good sturdy build
  • guide mode is useful
Cons:
  • No live view

Pros:

  • Has minimal buttons and only one control dial
  • noisy images from ISO 400 and above
  • can only autofocus with AF-S lenses
