[QUOTE="JudeIscariot, post: 165781, member: 15275"] Just as a matter of statement, this issue is the biggest issue the D3000 and the D5000 had. As others have said, turn off ADL and it should help. I've had a D3000 camera for over 3 years, and it's always been my largest issue with it, and I've read plenty of reviews that say the same thing. It's almost always better to slightly overexpose with these cameras so you don't end up with shadow problems. My friend has had the D5000 for almost as long and it has the SAME EXACT issue. It was something about the sensors, I guess. I think they rushed to production on them, to be honest. Notice how fast both were replaced by the +100 models. And notably, the issue with grainy shadows makes for rather "meh" HDR photos (which is something I don't really care for to begin with, but I would never make one with my D3000). [/QUOTE]
