 This camera blows Jul 28, 2010
I've had this camera for 6 months now and decided to go back to using my 6MP Kodak point and shoot since it's too late to return it. This is the most piece of crap camera for your money that you can buy. It shoots terrible at high ISOs, terrible enough that the grain from the pictures can't even be corrected with Photoshop. If you plan on shooting indoors in normal or ambient lighting conditions, don't buy this camera. It's ridiculous how frustrating the controls on this camera are. On mine, say I want to change from A (aperture) mode to something else, like M (manual). In order to display the settings I can change with the thumb wheel, I have to completely shut the camera off and turn it on again in order for the display to change between modes. Nothing shows up in the viewfinder either, for when I want to quickly change minor settings while shooting. Oh, and good luck if you ever want to remove the lens or switch them out. Takes me a good 20 minutes to line up each lens perfectly and get them back onto the camera. I hate this camera and it's probably one of the most disappointing things I have every purchased.

 Great camera!! Jul 25, 2010
Great camera!! Very simple to use and outstanding picture quality. This camera affords you the opportunity to simply "point and shoot" using the auto focus feature which is great for camera illiterate people such as myself that wanted to take better pictures without going through photography school.

 Loves everything except the colors Jul 23, 2010
The ONLY thing that will stop me from giving this product 5 stars is my own issue with the colors, I have no idea if my setting messed the colors that I was wanting to have or if the camera itself isn't functioning the way I was hoping it will. I've had this camera 9 months now & what I've discovered about it is that by time the performance of the camera progresses and that all depends on how often do you use it, I think its the type of camera who needs continues maintenance in order to perform better that and the fact that it was my very first DSLR camera.
Well I have a friend who owns a Nikon D60 and seeing the photos she's taken with it was the only reason that encouraged me to purchase a Nikon instead of Canon and the colors my friend took with her camera is absolutely stunning! I don't know what setting she has it on but I believe its on Auto mode since I've seen her take pic with that as her default setting and the result of the pic from quality and colors aspects were amazing! at first I thought she got them edited using photshop or that kind of programs but she told me that she didn't and the result still astonish me! I DO not say that the D3000 does not take good pic it does and I really enjoyed it but compare to the colors that my friend's D60 camera takes my camera seems dull and boring I want to know is it just the setting or is the D60 who is below the D3000 is a much better camera?? I'm really confused

A terrific choice for beginners Jul 21, 2010
I've been a Nikon guy for years and I recently purchased this camera for my girlfriend. I shoot film and with a Nikon D90 and I have to say that I'm pretty impressed with the D3000. I have a pretty extensive and expensive kit but I typically find myself using the D3000 and it's plastic kit lens instead. It's incredibly lightweight and portable (for a DSLR). In good light, the D3000 produces sharp, colorful images that are practically indiscernible to my D90.
:: PROS ::
- Easy to figure out for beginners
- Gives you all of the essentials. Anyone that "needs" more features needs to work on their photo skills---not inventory.
- Great focusing system
- Meters correctly almost every time
- Sharp in good light
- Light and portable
- Very long battery life
:: CONS ::
- My word is this thing slow. You take a picture and it takes several seconds for it to show you a preview on the back. (Yes, I use a fast, Class 8 card)
- Screen is low resolution and pretty dim
- ISO performance is only okay. Still miles beyond point and shoots, but it's nothing compared to the D90.
- No internal focusing motor. This means that you can't use any older lenses without needing to focus manually. Basically, only buy the newer AF-S lenses.
:: SUMMARY ::
This is a great camera designed to help people step into the SLR world and get a feel for having more control over a photograph. It won't make you a better photographer but it will give you beautiful, accurately colored, sharp and high resolution photographs (in good light). Despite my ISO "con," it really does perform nicely in low light. Just don't rely on cranking ISO up... get more light instead. I highly recommend this.
:: INSTEAD ::
If you have a little more money to spend, maybe check out the D5000 instead. Still no internal focusing motor, but it gives you a better screen, video capabilities, and the same image sensor that's in the D90.
:: ALSO BUY ::
The kit lens that comes with this, while dinky and plastic, is actually pretty terrific. I'd also recommend checking out the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S for better low light performance and a shallower depth of field. People always notice shallow depths of field, like it, don't know how to explain it, and say "you have a great camera." It's the lens, not the camera.
From D40 to D3000 Jul 19, 2010
I got this camera as a upgrade from my D40 and as soon as I started taking photos I noticed a big difference in the two! I love the focal points on this camera which allow for more creative shots, I also love the in-camera editing features. I needed a small DSLR because I have small hands, I thought the D3000 would be smaller then the D40 and although they feel the same in my hand the D3000 will not fit in my old D40 case.
The VR lens is great as well. I'm very happy I upgraded to this camera!
