The Nikon D3000 is the company’s latest entry-level DSLR, featuring 10.2 Megapixels and an easy-to-use control system aimed at DSLR beginners or those wanting to upgrade from a point-and-shoot camera. Announced in July 2009, it’s the successor to the popular D60, and sits below the D5000 in the current Nikon range. The major new features are a larger 3in screen, an 11-point AF system and a new Guide mode for beginners.
Like earlier Nikon entry-level DSLRs, the D3000 shares a number of features with its predecessor. At its heart is the same 10.2 Megapixel DX-format CCD sensor used in the D60, not to mention the D40x and D80 before that.
This sensor was certainly capable of delivering great results on the earlier models which employed it, although it means the D3000 can't offer Live View or a movie mode. The cheapest Nikon body with Live View and video remains the D5000.
While you won’t be composing with the D3000’s screen, the monitor itself has enjoyed an upgrade, increasing from the 2.5 inches of the D60 to a 3in model. Like other entry-level DSLRs, the screen resolution remains 230k pixels and it’s also fixed in position.
