[QUOTE="JudeIscariot, post: 165782, member: 15275"] Not if you need something for lowlight. Get a 3100, it probably won't run you much more now that the 3200 has been out for awhile, and it handles lowlight MUCH MUCH better. IMO, the whole thousand series cameras were rushed to production, and while the 7000 wasn't so bad, the 3000 and 5000 suffered because of it. Also note that Nikon and Canon have both switched exclusively to CMOS chips now in lieu of CCD, because they can make better ones... And the 3000 is the LAST CCD chip Nikon issued. The 3100 is a CMOS chip, which these days is generally better all around. [/QUOTE]
