Nikon D3000 Review
As I said in the introduction, the Nikon D3000 is a great little camera. The only question that you have to answer is: Does it work for you

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

Nikon D3000 picks up where the D60 left off, but can Nikon repeat its success with the D3000?

- no DOF preview or live view

Nikon D3000
The D3000 is a refinement of the D60 which now sits at the low-end of Nikon's entry-level DSLRs. It improves on the D60 with 11 autofocus points, up from 3 and a larger LCD. Unfortunately, it did lose the eye-start sensor. It is a relatively compact DSLR with the most basic feature set.
Pros:
- Low image noise and good retention of details
- Generally good exposure
- Realistic image colors
- Very good white-balance
- Fast and responsive
- Good build quality
- Good ergonomics
- may be too small though
- In camera RAW processing
Cons:
- Focuses gives up more frequently than average
- Images softer than its peers
- Info causes glare when settings are changed
- Limited interface control
- No depth-of-field preview
- No bracketing
- Behavior of Auto ISO somewhat strange
- Exposure step cannot be changed
- always 1/3 EV
- No auto focus support...

The D3000 ($599) is Nikon's new entry-level digital SLR. It replaces the venerable D40, and while it doesn't bring live view and movie recording to its price category, the D3000 still offers a nice feature set for the price.

Nikon D3000 review
The Nikon D3000 represents Nikon's attempt to put a DLSR into the hands of people who would normally feel out of their depth with that kind of high-end camera. While there are lots of great digital SLRs out there, nobody has quite worked out how to make them really easy for novices.

Nikon D3000 review
Nikon's new entry-level DSLR camera doesn't try too hard to impress. With a bunch of fairly modest specs – 10.2MP sensor, a maximum of 3 fps continuous shooting – and no headline-grabbing features like HD video capture or even live view, it's fair to say that the D3000 hasn't had us popping...
