Review of The Nikon D3100 Digital SLR Camera

Review of The Nikon D3100 Digital SLR Camera. D3100 is the result of a long evolution of Nikon DSLR in creating the most ideal approach. Since the success of the D40 in 2007, Nikon is rather lazy to create surprises and tend to continue the D40 with a similar product, the D40x and D60. Even when D3000 was introduced, Nikon would not give him much less movie features live view mode. D3000 only surprise by implanting AF module with 11 points (as D5000) and features 3D tracking AF, and the LCD screen a bit more relieved. Enough? Of course not. Even the presence of such repeats the story of melancholy D3000 D60 D3000 forced failing to even reach the worst version of Nikon's DSLR predicate Ken Rockwell. Aware of this, Nikon finally in late 2010 and launched the D3100 with a variety of important changes such as:



* Gives live view features and full HD movie
* Change from CCD to CMOS sensors
* Increase the resolution of 10 MP to 14 MP
* Raising the maximum ISO of 1600 to 3200
* Adds a useful lever drive modes (including Quiet Shutter Release)
* Use second-generation EXPEED processor

Nikon retains all the good things that exist in D3000 as 11 AF points and the Guide mode to help beginners use the camera and get good results. In the dimensions and shape of the camera body was still relatively the same as D3100 D3000 to D40 which includes a small and lightweight.
