Breathtaking digital SLR image quality and easy operation highlight the 10.2-megapixel D3000--Nikon's friendliest DSLR ever. Compact and capable, the D3000 is compatible with a broad range of world-famous Nikkor lenses and includes the versatile 3x, 18-55mm Zoom-Nikkor with Silent-Wave Motor autofocusing and Nikon VR image stabilization to combat picture blur caused by camera shake for sharper handheld pictures. Special moments are captured faithfully at up to 3 frames-per-second and displayed on a bright, 3-inch LCD monitor. The D3000's split-second shutter response eliminates the annoyance of shutter lag. To further simplify picture-taking in special situations such as portraits, sports, landscapes, and more, the D3000 features icon-identified Scene Modes that deliver beautiful results automatically in otherwise complex situations..../ Nikon D3000 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens / nikon d200

Customer Review :
Super user kindly beginner camera with great Af theory and image capability : Nikon D3000 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens
This is probably not the right camera for man who is an uber-photography hobyist. This is the right camera for man who enjoys photography and wants to step up from a capability point and shoot digital pocket camera.
I wanted an Slr because I wanted to improve the photos I was taking of my 18 month old daughter. My Canon Sd750 pocket camera takes great photos, but not the same capability as an Slr would.
The D3000 is great because it has an auto mode that essentially turns it into a point and shoot camera. There is no shutter lag and - with the right memory card - you can hit continuous shoot to take 3 shots per second. (This is ideal for shots of my daughter going down a slide or kicking a ball in the backyard.)
If you end up "getting into" photography and want to futz with the settings, this camera has all you could need. 11 point multi-focus and fancy light metering will keep whatever busy. That said, you can also just leave it in auto and it will take phenominal photos.
One of the best features is the "?" button. On any screen, you can push the "?" button to get a quick description of what the separate setting options will do. For example, when selecting a by hand metering mode, it will tell you the incompatibility between multimetering and spotmetering.
The Guide feature is another helpful choice that guides you straight through questions about what you are shooting and adjusts the settings accordingly. To be frank, I find I don't use that very much.
The camera comes with an 18-55 lens which is perfectly enough for 80% of shooting. I also purchased a 35mm f/1.8 lens so that I could take more shots indoors without flash. I might also think a 70-300 or 55-200 at some point down the road. For now, I have not had a need to do much telephoto work. I find that I can take the photo with the lens I have and then just zoom and crop on the computer. The image sensor has enough capability that you can undoubtedly do a requisite crop and zoom without a noticable loss in image quality.
Here are some negatives:
1) Shooting above 800 Iso tends to yield grainy photos. I try to keep it at 800 or below. That is another speculate I bought the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G Af-S Dx Lens for Nikon Digital Slr Cameras lens.
2) You need a fast Sd card to avoid shooting delays. The camera has an image buffer. I found that using a standard Sandisk 15mb/s card, I was able to shoot (on continuous shooting) about 6 or 8 photos before hitting the buffer. I bought a Sandisk greatest Iii 30mb/s card, and I have not been able to hit the buffer. There are also some shooting effects that involve post shot processing, and these can slightly slow down the camera.
3) I sort of wish I could have bought this with only the body and then added the lenses I wanted. The 18-55 is a very good lens, but I probably would have just ended up buying an 18, a 35 and maybe a longer zoom.
Conclusion
This is a great camera. It is a very good value and is the natural step up from a pocket digital. In my opinion, all of the criticisms I have seen online are from population who expect an entry level camera to have all of the bells and whistles found on models 2-10x the price.
Update: Nearly one year later . . . I still love this camera, but please be sure to check out the updated version Nikon D3100 14.2Mp Digital Slr Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Af-S Dx Vr Nikkor Zoom Lens or the body only Nikon D5000 12.3 Mp Dx Digital Slr Camera with 2.7-inch Vari-angle Lcd (Body Only) plus Nikon 35mm f/1.8G Af-S Dx Lens for Nikon Digital Slr Cameras
