• Since I moved to US 10 years ago I acquired the discipline to register any new product at the site manufacturer to ensure authenticity, guarantee, service, etc.This time was not an exception, and when trying to register my new D3100 at the nikonusa.com site I got a message that states that my purchase falls into what Nikon calls \"Gray Market\".The issue with Gray market is the following: \"Nikon Inc. USA cannot provide any technical support or warranty service on Gray Market items. Additionally Nikon Inc. USA cannot perform any fee-based repair work on Gray Market items. Please do not contact Nikon Inc. USA for help with any Gray Market products. Please contact the reseller or importer of your Gray Market items for warranty and service information as well as software updates and downloads\"I sent an email through Amazon asking for a clarification and the vendor 6Ave sent me this response: \"Thank you for your email. When shopping on ebay the item may be either or if the listing details do not specify specifically USA. In this case we have not specified USA in the listing and will ship which ever model is available at the time your order is placed. It is not possible to make a specific request. Models that are not covered by the manufacture warranty will be covered by our store warranty for 90 days labor and 1 year parts.\"1st they are assuming that I purchased the product through \"ebay\" regardless the fact that they are using the Amazon messaging service. This says a lot about the level of attention to details :(2nd the vendor argues that they didn\'t specify USA in the listing details and this is correct as the Amazon page hasn\'t any reference to USA3rd the vendor is assuming that Nikon will provide a guarantee and \"Models that are not covered by the manufacture warranty will be covered by our store warranty for 90 days labor and 1 year parts\" however there is not any legal document included in the box that certifies this, so far what I have is this email4th I do believe vendors needs to disclose this type of information \"Gray Market\" because Nikon products (SW, Bios, etc) are updated frequently and I am not entitled to get anything unless the store sends it to me which is something that is not going to happenTo what point Amazon is aware or even worse \"endorses\" this type of business practices?I acquired all my Nikon products (lenses, accessories, etc) through Amazon so this is the first time that I run into this situation :(Really disappointed with this purchase :(*** Nov 4th Update ***Per peers\' feedback (Thanks folks) I am changing my rating from 1 star to 4 stars as this model is great and does exactly what is described in the tech spec. Good purchase and loving the new features (I owned a D40 before) so price/value ratio is positive.
• I got around to writing review after more than a year since buying this camera. It meets my needs perfectly because I was looking for light-weight camera that gives good results indoors and has low shutter-lag. Indoor photos don\'t washout the subjects with excessive flash allowing natural skin tones to show. Shutter lag is low enough for capturing fleeting smiles. Size and bulk is small enough to hang on the neck or carry in a backpack.Most of my pictures are taken in Auto-mode but I love the results. Only once I fiddled around with manual focus, ISO and Aperture settings for 4th of July fireworks. Pictures I got were magazine-worthy.Battery life is long enough for over 400 shots, 16GB card is sufficient for lasting over couple of trips. I use Picasa for organizing photos and Sony\'s PMB for importing.I skipped buying the kit from Costco because I know I would not carry around two different lenses, let alone switch them. Instead I bought 18mm-105mm lens and thank my good judgment every time I use my camera. Lens is good enough for wide angles and perfect for portraits. Bokeh effect is as expected (can never get that from even high-end aim-and-shoots). I have taken shots of rainbows, closeups of kids, super close-ups of flowers, city-life, dance performances, beaches, sunsets and whatever else I fancy.I have never felt buyer\'s remorse for owning this. I just thought it is worth the expense to capture priceless memories of my kids before they grow up. I only wish D3100 had adjustable LCD like D5100\'s for taking ground-level photos or other unusual angles.
• for the price this camera is very good. I was quite surprised by how fast the auto focus is compared to my D 3000. I recently shot panning pictures and the autofocus worked quite well for this type of tricky photography. the frame rates per second are a little slow, but I knew that before purchasing the camera.a lot of the features and buttons are more intuitive to this camera than my d3000. the autofocus speed in the Live View is a little slow, however I do not use that feature it uses a lot more battery power.I have not used the video mode, because I do not shoot much video and that was not with the camera was purchased for.this camera is pure Nikon quality. it is not as fast or have quite as many fancy features as the professional line cameras, however if you were on a budget and you know how to use a camera thoroughly, this camera can do all that the intermediate cameras can do.this camera uses all of my prior Nikon mounting lenses, which is a great feature of Nikon. would I rather have a d610 or D 7200 yes, but I don\'t have the 1500 to 2000 dollar budget. this camera body was well worth the $233.00.thus I now have two functioning camera Bonnie that will get me through well I save my money for the more expensive Pro models. Also, Amazon shipping was great and I received the camera within 2 days.
