Nikon D3000 Price, features and specifications

If you’re on a budget and in the market for a DSLR, the D3000 may be right for you. The Nikon D3000 looks quite a lot like the venerable D40 but under the hood, it shares more similarities with the D5000 sans the articulated display and HD video recording.

The D3000 features a 10.2MP sensor, a new ‘Guide Mode’, an extensive Retouch Menu, an 11-point autofocus system and the company’s EXPEED image processing system. There’s also an Active D-Lighting system and 3D Color Matrix Metering II, not to mention 3D Subject Tracking and support for RAW images

The Nikon D3000 kit ships with a Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens.
