Customer Rating:      Summary: Extremely capable, Great 1st DSLR Comment: This is just what I wanted. It's not complicated, but very capable. Still far beyond my current capabilities, but between the camera and the Dummies book by Julie Adair King, I am taking noticeably better photos already. I am going to get a lot of use out of this camera, and the more I learn, the more impressed I am with it. Not having video is not a negative for me. It's a great camera for still images and that's what I want it to do. I bought a $150 HD flip camera for video. If you are deciding between brands, the others are probably really good too. But I am thoroughly happy with what I chose, and I did not spend way too much. If you are coming from a point and shoot like I was, this is a great choice.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Poor Customer service Comment: I love the camera. However, the lens can broken. When I contacted the seller, I was told that I needed to return the entire camare instead of just the lens. I didn't have time due to trip so I purchased a new lens locally and not it works just fine.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Amazing Comment: I really liked my camera. I ain't an expert but I just loved!
I can take really nice pictures with amazing quality. Really impressed!
That's all.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Had it a little over a month, and I love my camera. Comment: I've been debating between getting the Nikon d3000 and Canon XS. I never thought I would own anything other than a Canon because I was a long time Canon user. I wasn't really sure which way I would lean until I grabbed a hold of both of them in my hands at a store. I liked the way the Nikon felt in my hands. Canon just felt cheap. I've also considered Nikon d5000, but I wasn't ready to commit myself to paying that price tag for a few extras features for a beginner. For someone that is just delving into dslr and photography, I love it. I want to take photography classes so I can learn even more and improve my skills.
I get frustrated with the camera sometimes, but it's only because of my inability to understand what each function does and how to use it. I have more learning to do, which requires more patience. Now, I find myself going on random trips around Southern California just so I can take pictures and just use my camera. I take it everywhere. I know I would own this for years, but when that time comes it would be another Nikon (and it's not just because I have Nikon lenses). I love their quality. I've converted.
My only peeve, although minor, is that it doesn't have live view. I knew this going in. I thought it wouldn't be a problem because I do prefer the eye view finder, but I do take pictures with the point of view from the ground. Without live view, I really don't know what I'm taking a picture of, and I choose not to lay on the ground to find that out. I guess it will be trial and error for me and a surprise when I look at the pictures or suck it up and get down onto the ground.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Amazing! Comment: This camera is amazing!! pictures are incredible!! easy to use! great for the price!!
