I got this camera as a birthday/christmas present and I couldn't be happier with it! Not only does it take amazing photos and videos, but it's super easy to use and it has so many fun features!! This camera came with two different types of lenses and the standard battery/charger.

My wife and I absolutely love this camera. The D3100 is our first experience with a digital SLR and we couldn't be happier. It was easy to learn how to use this camera and it takes beautiful pictures and videos.

I purchased this camera as a gift for my wife and she is thrilled. The quality of the camera and photos is great. It is a great step up from a "point and shoot" camera.

Nikon's new entry level DSLR offers nice still image quality with good high ISO performance all rolled in to a compact and light DSLR. The 18-55mm kit lens is a solid if unspectacular performer with average AF times, but generally good image quality and a very usable close focus distance.

Good color; image quality; Light and compact DSLR; Decent kit lens

Short video record time; Noticeable rolling shutter

Wide isn't wide . Nikon hasn't really produced a true wide angle that's small enough to complement this camera, Video is wobbly. Rolling shutter problems are about as bad as I've seen in a DSLR. Talking head videos are okay; roller blade action, not so much, Complicated for a beginner's camera .

Nikon D3100 This will not be a technical review by any stretch of the imagination but rather one from my own personal experience of the camera and with this camera. If you want technical details you can find that by going to the Nikon website and researching about the camera.

Very easy to use. The guide is also a good teaching tool. Have used it to shoot both hi-speed ie Pacific gulls in flight along with portraits. Good entry level DSLR. You might want to buy the 18 - 105mm lense to add to your kit along with a speedlight flash.

Easy to use; Build quality; Battery life

Exactly what I needed and had been looking for. Camera came with two lenses which cover all I need for picture taking. A camera which has all the options you could wish for without being loaded with a lot of gimmicky stuff you probably wouldn't use. A good buy.

Lightweight and easy to use; Monitor very easy to read - a plus when you are older.

None really except it doesn't have WI-FI

Here are my impressions about the Nikon D3100 DSLR camera . This is the entry level camera at Nikon when it comes to DSLR cameras.
