Nikon D5100 review
Although there has been some overlap, digital SLR development has gone through some quite distinct phases. Initially the battle was to produce affordable models, and once this was achieved manufacturers turned their attention to producing cameras with higher pixel counts.

Still getting to know it.
This is a well-built, well thought out camera that has more features than I'll ever need. Even though I'm still learning all the features I like it and would recommend it to any aspiring photographer.<br />If I had to change one thing..
Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus
- Good Image Quality
- Large Clear LCD
Cons:
- Lag / Shutter Delay

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.

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.

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

Great camera, some limitations
I've had the D5100 for a year or so and so far I'm happy with it. This is my first DSLR. The pros: - It has the same sensor as the D7000 - Produces 14 bit RAW files (a luxury for this price in my opinion#. - Exceptional image quality and dynamic range. - Performs amazingly well in low light.

- Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- High ISO Performance
- Large Clear LCD
- Lightweight
- Quiet
- Tilt /Swivel LCD
