[QUOTE="Jonny g, post: 58619, member: 9563"] I thought I'd post my experiences of having a D3100 for over a month. It may help someone who is choosing a camera but please remember it is subjective and based upon my experiences. The D3100 is affordable (to me) and I always fancied a Nikon. I am very impressed with the camera. It is easy to understand. I would recommned it but If I was buying again I would look a bit more in what other Nikon models can offer. It took me a while to get going as I didn't want to put it in auto mode and just shoot I actually wanted to learn how to take photographs.

If people want to do that its fine btw and it is a good way to get going but I want to learn what would happen with this f stop and that shutter speed.
