Great value for money

Great camera for the money, exceptional image quality. The flippy lcd is great for shots at awkward angles and for getting pinpoint focus with macros. Very wide dynamic range and great hi ISO perfomance.The liveview implementation is lacking especially if you try and shoot manually, the focus...
Pros:
  • Great Features
  • Great Picture Quality
  • Lightweight
  • Simple Controls
Cons:
  • Focus Point Selector
  • Inadequate Features

Could be better

Whilst this camera does everything it says on the tin there are certain aspects that one would expect to be better from a product bearing the name Nikon. Other than having a greater pixel count and Live View it seems to perform little better than my Pentax K10 from which I have updated.

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.
Cons:
  • 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.

Best Christmas gift ever

Love this camera. It takes great pictures. I just have to read the manual for all the things it can do. With kids, it's great, no more waiting for the camera to focus and the flash to warm up with a point and shoot. This is like a point and shoot but gives you instant and great results.
Pros:
  • this is like a point and shoot but gives you insta
Cons:
  • none

Nikon D5100 review

Although DSLRs are becoming increasingly complex and feature-rich, manufacturers are trying to make them easier to use. Nikon has been at the forefront of this development, over the last six months we've seen the Nikon D3100 and now it's bigger brother the Nikon D5100.

Shutter is very slow, not for professional shooter

NIKON D5100 16MP Digital SLR Camera I bought a Nikon this time thinking I would have richer colors and better shutter speeds then Canon. Nope. It takes nice photos but this camera is for amateurs, not professionals needing more features for what is spent. Back to Canon next time I buy a new camera.

  • 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
