Nikon D5100 HDSLR Camera Review
Feature rich, excellent image quality and great low light performance make the Nikon D5100 a strong contender in the sub-$1,000 price range.
Pros:
- External microphone port
- Supports optional geotagging
- User selectable focus points
- Great color reproduction
- Strong low light performance
Cons:
- Onboard microphone picks up everything
- Dedicated ISO button would be a plus

D5100 Review
minor fixes: 7/28/2011 update: 10/12/2012 Nikon D5100 Review The "Just Right" Model? Add a comment or send Thom feedback on this article. Update: we're more than halfway through the D5100's expected life, with a new version likely in spring 2013.
Pros:
- Film SLR owner who hasn't gone digital
- The D5100 has some nice aspects that'll make you very happy, but if you've got a lot of older lenses, you won't be happy
- The manual focus ones won't meter and the old autofocus lenses won't focus.
