young photographer, which Nikon camera?
Hi I am a young photographer, not very experienced, but thinking that the Nikon camera. nikon d3000-10.2 mp, phone mode and the moving target, Nikon Coolpix flights, no video-recording video p100-making, significant change lenses, 10.3 mp, unguided mode-economic Nikon D5000-making, changing video lens, mp 12.3, there is no way that an expensive phone??
The D3000 and D5000 have sensors that are more than 15 times greater than the P100. The D3000 and D5000 use interchangeable lenses. The P100 has an objective that can not change the D5000 is one of the performance of entry level DSLR has. If you have the budget, What do you mean buy it, "not as a guide? As a professional photographer, who began learning how to be a photographer with a camera of view (no autofocus, no video, no auto ISO, auto white balance no) I do not feel bad that they have no way of guidance on how Advanced Camera:. NOTE Ah, I see. the "phone mode", teaches you how to use the camera. Damn! Just learn how to use the light meter and take weekend classes, few in the photography and do with it. All you need to know is in the user manual and a Yahoo search for "composition Picture if you want to impress your friends with other "snapshot"
