[QUOTE="Zeke_M, post: 552501, member: 41439"] You might want to rethink that statement. If you're outdoors in a high contrast situation with the sun to the side or in front of you, you'll need a flash to fill in the shaded portions of your subject. The onboard flash won't cut it most of the time. I found that out the hard way when I first bought my D3100. Even a basic flash like a SB-400 will light up shaded areas when the subject is backlit. I pack an off camera flash wherever I go. Better to have it and not need it than the other way around. [/QUOTE]
