Nikon Corporation was established in 1917.When the three major optical manufacturers merged to form a comprehensive and fully integrated optical company known as. Kogaku Tokyo Nippon KK Over the next sixty years this growing company has optical lenses (including the first Canon digital camera ) and equipment used in cameras, binoculars, microscopes and inspection equipment manufacturer. World War II, the company grew to nineteen factories and 23,000 employees, supplying items such as binoculars, lenses, bomb sights and periscopes the Japanese army.
Nikon's playing catch up ever since they introduced the first DSLR capable of shooting HD video with images, a flurry of rival Canon's HD models are bested the Nikon price functions. But with the freshly announced the D3100, Nikon may have found a new secret sauce: 1080p with autofocus.

Although videographers rushed through the new HD video DSLRs in their crisp, saturated look quickly through the digital TV shows like Louie, Bourdain is no exception, and the intro to SNL), they are expensive and bulky ones who can buy with a focus on aid or pay for care formed manually focused shots. But you and I, and stops like a DSLR camera lacks autofocus.

Nikon has developed a very attractive entry-level DSLR, which is rarely the best habit but cleverly designed so that they are easy and fun to shoot. The D3000 is equipped with this model perfectly, gently updating the D60, which itself has been slightly updated D40X), she added, ease of use features that nice little camera to use, regardless of specification, which is starting to look pretty out-of-step the rest of the market.

D3000 sold well, despite the age and the 10-megapixel sensor and a lack of both Live View and video. However, there's only so long as the product of intelligent design and feature integration can make up for the specification that looks on. Thus, according to Nikon announced the D3100 - probably the biggest update their entry-level reporting, because he really attacked the low end market with the original D40.

The body gets a little refreshing from the basic design that essentially dates back four years to the D40, to acquire an additional display button on the left, the drive mode switch mode dial, lever sprung to participate in the Live View, video recording and direct button. Adjustments were also made in the function of training, hands-Holding Guide Mode and the additional autofocus mode is designed to allow more attention to the movie "Live View and autofocus.
All of this adds up to a DSLR, which covers the entire 2010 - "must have" features, but it seems like a product of evolution rather than dramatic innovation. And in 2010, during which the market share of such devloped along predictable lines, not too large sensor, interchangeable lens camera mirrorless crowds development.

Camera makers always try to emphasize that mirrorless cameras to create a completely new market, rather than compete with entry-level dSLR, but it's pretty clear that many people are planning to upgrade from point-and-shoot compact will consider two types of camera, the its decision. So, D3100 DSLR unambiguous (in the days when the DSLR and mirrorless cameras, the line becomes increasingly blurred), its beginner-friendly guide mode insert it directly competes with a number of mirrorless models who also want to congratulate the point-and-Shoot upgrade.


Many of these cameras like the Sony NEX-3 and 5, the Olympus E-PL1 and Panasonic GF2, offers a similar interface available to smaller, competitively priced packages. They also eshewing conventional DSLR design, we can offer a photographic experience that is much closer to a compact camera, which even the best DSLR, Live View implementation can not easily imitate at this time.So, the D3100 offers an enhanced feature set in comparison with the camera, we really liked, it is still unclear whether the supplies will be enough to make it stand out, as well as his predecessor did.
