Breathtaking digital SLR image quality and easy operation highlight the 10.2-megapixel D3000-Nikon's friendliest D-SLR ever. Compact and capable, the D3000 is compatible with a broad range of world-famous NIKKOR lenses and includes the versatile 3x, 18-55mm Zoom-NIKKOR with Silent-Wave Motor autofocusing and Nikon VR image stabilization to combat picture blur caused by camera shake for sharper handheld pictures. Special moments are captured faithfully at up to 3 frames-per-second and displayed on a bright, 3-inch LCD monitor. The D3000's split-second shutter response eliminates the annoyance of shutter lag. To further simplify picture-taking in special situations such as portraits, sports, landscapes, and more, the D3000 features icon-identified Scene Modes that deliver beautiful results automatically in otherwise complex situations. Additional Nikon technologies elevate picture quality and guard against picture-taking mistakes. Fast, accurate 11-point autofocus delivers razor sharpness. 3D Color Matrix Metering II and Nikon EXPEED image processing work with an exclusive Scene Recognition System for precise automatic exposures and rich, vivid color. Making the D3000 an even smarter choice are its exclusive Retouch functions for creative fun and the onboard Guide Mode that's ready to lend a reassuring hand to take the pictures you've always wanted.
Nikon 55-200 mm F/4-5.6G ED AF-S DX Nikkor Lens
The AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED brings far-away subjects to the photographer without the burden of carrying a large telephoto lens. Zooming in on those elusive action shots at soccer or baseball games will fill the frame with images that would be otherwise impossible to capture. Its impressive zoom range of 55-200mm allows users the versatility to capture everything from razor-sharp candid portraits to sports, nature and even wildlife pictures. Despite its long zoom range, the AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 55- 200mm f/4-5.6G ED is remarkably compact and lightweight, and proves to be a formidable companion to the instant responsiveness and the impressive speed of Nikon digital SLR cameras.
To ensure outstanding optical performance, this lens also features Nikon's exclusive Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass to minimize chromatic aberrations, and Silent Wave Motor technology (SWM) for fast, quiet auto- focusing. All of Nikon's DX Nikkor lenses are optimized for the DX format sensors found in all Nikon digital SLR cameras, making the lens smaller, lighter and with exceptional center-to-edge-to-corner image quality and performance.

Truthfully have not used the camera very much yet. But, at an air show yesterday took some great pics I never could have gotten with my point & shoot. I was using the 55-200 lens set on "sports" mode.

Comments about Nikon Nikon D3000 DSLR Camera Two-Lens Outfit (18-55 VR & AF-S DX 55-200mm F/4-5.6G ED):
If you have wanted to try DSLR cameras out but were intimitated by their complexity, don't be...anymore!
Exellent value for a very nice camera. Much easier to use than anticipated. The manual, the guide mode (on camera) and the information displayable for each shot taken actually teaches you how to take beautiful pictures in all kinds of conditions. Of course, the auto mode does essentially everything for you except frame and shoot if you desire, making this camera a "point and shoot" DSLR in many situations.
Only 2 cons: 1) the cover over the SDHC card could be a little more secure. When grasping the camera to pull it out of a tight case, be careful not to pull the cover open. The card does NOT eject, but this can't be good if it happens too often. 2) removing the rubber eye-cup and replacing with view finder cap (when camera has been framed for shooting on a tripod) isn't easy without moving the camera a bit. Since you can't recheck the framing with the cap on, I suggest you remove the rubber cap first, frame the shot, then place the cover cap carefully while holding the camera tight. Small cons, not enough to dissuade anyone from buying a great DSLR at a fantastic price.

Comments about Nikon Nikon D3000 DSLR Camera Two-Lens Outfit (18-55 VR & AF-S DX 55-200mm F/4-5.6G ED):
This is a very good entry level DSLR. Having replaced both D40/D40x and D60 models, this DSLR is the perfect camera for beginner/amateur photographers. The settings and on-screen manual are very user friendly and the semi-custom settings are very easy to get used to, as well.
