Posted by: donbipaq from Brooklyn, NY on 05/11/2013I really love this camera! I had a simple digital camera that I used to take simple shots. Now, I feel like I can take great shots in a variety of conditions. The flash works well and the battery life is nice and long. I was on a trip in the Caribbean and took lots of picture and only had to charge it twice. BestBuy's service was outstanding. I placed the order for this camera over the phone and they were courteous and so very helpful. I would definitely do business with them again!

Posted by: Greytluv from Texas on 05/05/2013It's been years since I've used an SLR camera, so it's been a neat experience to use this camera. I took the advice of other reviewers in regard to it being a great beginner DSLR. Have always been a fan of Nikon, and love the quality and the features of the camera. It is user friendly, more so than Canon I believe (I do own a Canon as well), and looking forward to some beautiful pictures. I bought the red version of the camera for something different, and no complaints thus far. On sale, a great value.

Posted by: monsterskeeper from WI on 05/03/2013I'm still learning the ins and outs of this camera since I am used to the canon rebel I used to own, but it works wonderfully for pictures of my pets and my toddler.
