I own a D700, but wanted a small, easily carryable camera that I would actually carry most of the time. This camera reminds me of the "Little Engine That Could" The images are just fantastic. Detail at 3200 is almost as good as its larger DX brother, the D7000. Only thing you won't have is the capability of using lenses without internal focus motors. OK, the D7000 is more capable in other ways as well, but this camera is a perfect compliment to the full frame D700. It's a light second body that won't weigh you down.
I keep a Tamron 18-270mm VC lens on it most of the time and they play very nicely together. Tried the Nikkor 18-200mm but the VR is nowhere near as good as Tamron's, and the Tamron is sharper and contrastier.
Have never used the simple mode. I usually leave the camera at aperture priority, choose an ISO for the situation, and it does the rest- flawlessly. No, it's not a high speed sports camera but for a general, carry with out all the time DSLR, it can't be beat.

I own a D40 and love it for what it is. Since the D40 is no longer sold I bought this as the equivalent model as a gift. For some crazy reason Nikon didn't include the IR sensor so you cant use the $10 wireless remote that is incredibly handy.

As a previous owner of a Nikon D3000, the predecessor to the D3100, I was impressed not only by the features, but also by the price of this new camera.
When the D3000 was new, its MSRP was $599. The replacement model, one year later was $699 only $100 more. What do you get for that extra $100? Check out just some of the features:
1) An improved resolution of 14.2 MP compared with the 10.2 MP of the previous model
2) HD video (1080p), not previously available at this price point
2) EXPEED 2 which is Nikon's new image processing engine
All of these new features were added while Nikon kept the size and weight comparable to the previous model (the D3100 is 1/2 oz. heavier!)
This camera is so loaded I can't think of any negatives except price--if that is an issue go buy a point-and-shoot model!
Overall, Nikon has truly outdone itself with the D3100. For someone starting out in photography or a camera veteran, I can't think of a better more versatile choice than this one.

For over five years I have been using a Nikon D50 which I felt was an exceptional digital camera. However, with advancements such as live view, increased mega pixels, 1080 movies,more ISO settings, etc I decided to purchase the Nikon D3100. I normally would not buy a camera without handling it to see if it felt comfortable but decided to take a chance as the D3100 was so new and about the only way I could get one was through Amazon. I was not disappointed. It is lighter but feels as comfortable as the D50 even with other zoom lenses attached. I haven't taken a ton of pictures or movies yet but I will state so far I am very pleased. Navigation through the various menus is even more convenient than the D50. While I consider myself quite knowledgeable the guides are handy and for someone new to digital photography the D3100 is very user friendly and teaches you the basics. Very innovative!I highly recommend this camera. I do note that battery life is not quite as long as the D50. Movies,quite naturally, use up more battery life. Suggest one gets a spare. Also, Nikon does not supply the USB Cable UC-E4 to connect the camera to a computer or printer nor do they supply the Audio Video cable EG-D2 to connect the camera to a TV. Also make sure you get a class 6 memory card so movies and live view operate efficiently.

I have been a hobby photographer for over 40 years. My 1st Nikon was a 6MP Coolpix that I still have and love to use. My brother bought a D5000 back in the spring and I had taken some great shots with it on my first try but found the price a little more than I wanted to spend. So I had read that this D3100 was coming out soon and I waited to see reviews. This SLR is everything and more that it was reported to be. In less than 10 minutes I was able to take vibrant color, detailed photos , with ease. I used only the 18-55mm VR lens that comes with the VR KIT-BE SURE YOU ARE GETTING THE VR. While I think it would be nice if the computer cable was included it wasn't a factor since I just plug the SDHC card into my card reader and download my pictures, JPEG files and used Picture It to preview.
The camera is so light weight, shutter speed is excellent and can rapid fire in those action shots that you want. I want to add a telephoto and a macro lens to my case and maybe a few filters but I feel that this camera will be by my side for many years. It's the kind of camera that walks you into the learning process of using a digital SLR that many getting their 1st SLR will appreciate very much as the Manual or your on screen help will show you all that is needed. I would say that for the money there is no way to go wrong with the purchase of the new Nikon D3100, simple and fast as full auto point & shoot SLRor switch to manual and start creating those special shots you did with your old 35mm film camera.
