Customer Reviews

		Great for Stills, Average for Videos	August - 27 - 2010
		by Richard Young (CINE 2) from California, USA Pros: 1-Awesome picture quality. 2-Ability to magnify parts of the LCD screen before taking the picture and also for photos already taken. 3-Image stabilization (they call it VR-Vibration Reduction) Cons: 1-Poor viewfinder forward swivel position. To see the LCD viewfinder while shooting yourself you can't swivel the LCD up or to the side. You can only swivel it down, which makes it blocked by the tripod. And there doesn't seem to be an accessory that allows you to mount the tripod off to the side. 2-There's no inexpensive AC adaptor. You have to buy a dummy battery for $30 and then you have to buy a $70 AC adaptor which connects the dummy battery to the wall outlet. It's cheaper just to buy 2 more batteries. But for time lapse photography you probably need the AC adaptor. 3-No automatic lens cleaner. I was somehow lead to believe that Nikon invented an automatic lens cleaner. But their auto cleaner just cleans the image sensor. But when does that ever get dirty? It's the outer lens that needs the automatic cleaning. 4-Poor manual focus. The focusing ring on the lens only allows course focus (1/8 turn from min to max focus). And the viewfinder doesn't have split spot focus. So you have to magnify the LCD to the area that needs focus and then turn the focus ring very gingerly until it looks sharpest. The course focusing ring makes the slightest twist an over correction. 5-Cheap lens cap. The lens cap is not automatic (like in compact cameras) and you have to put it somewhere when you remove it. It doesn't hang down on a string or open up while remaining on the lens front. Having to deal with the lens cap takes away from the awesomeness of the rest of the camera. 6-Did not come with a memory card. I wanted to play with the camera right when I received it. But I had to order a memory card and wait two days for it to arrive. There is no internal memory to do temporary storage. If you don't have a memory card you can't take pictures. Making Videos: It does not have 1080 resolution. At it's highest resolution (1280x720) you can only record up to 5 min. The 2nd higest res gives you 20min, but it's a weird resolution (640x424). The optional remote control does not work for movies. No follow focus. And manual focus is very course. I was hoping to be able to use this as both my still camera and my video camera. But I ended up keeping the D5000 for stills and buying a Canon HF S20 to make videos.

		Wow! Nice job Nikon!	August - 15 - 2010
		by The Wallaces from Texas Wow! I'm impressed. First foray into DSLR photography and I can say this is a big leap from point-and-shoot. Haven't had a chance to use all the various settings available (there are so many, it's going to take a while!). Right out of the box, though, the pictures are amazing! 18-35mm lens does the job well for all-around shooting. Purchased the 55-200mm lens with this camera and it also does as advertised. Looking forward to see how the speed on the zoom lens works out shooting some Friday Night football and also shooting some wildlife photos, which I've not gotten to do either of yet . . . but I will be doing both. Will check back in later after I've had chance to explore the almost unlimited custom settings on this camera. Job well done, Nikon. I'd recommend this camera to anyone looking to get into DSLR without breaking the bank.

		Awesome starter DSLR camera!	August - 14 - 2010
		by A. Williams from Winter Springs, Fl United States I am purely an amature photographer, but I do have an eye for a great photo, so I wanted an easy to use camera that could "do it all." If truth be known, I bought this camera to take photos of my new GSP puppy as the point and shoot Nikon just didn't cut it with respect to the action shots, and neither did the expensive HD camcorder, so I was getting frustrated missing those perfect shots. Right out of the box the D5000 couldn't have been easier to use, within minutes I was shooting away and getting awesome shots of the puppy. He's quick, so the shutter speed was important and it performed flawlessly in all light levels. I don't know who complained about the video function, but I thought it was exceptional for playing on my computer or uploading to YouTube or Facebook. It didn't look too bad on my 46" flatscreen either. The coloring of my puppy tends to pixilate most digital cameras but this didn't happen with the D5000, his ticking came out crisp and clear in either still or video mode. I just returned from a cruise to the Bahamas and took some incredible sunsets and beach shots with the aid of a polarizing filter. The VBR was invaluable for steading the shots especialy when taking photos of the evening stars, and you would never know they were taken from a ship during twilight. I have small hands and the weight and grip of the D5000 was perfect. The only downside was I bought the kit with two lenses and a Nikon bag, unfortunately the bag was too small for both lenses to fit comfortably along with the filters and books. I ended up purchasing a Lowepro backback from Amazon which was very secure as it opened on the inside. Battery life was also amazing shooting over 1200 frames (including some with flash), but I didn't use the live view feature except for the video. I found the viewfinder to be large enough that I didn't need the live view for stills. Overall I adore this camera. I was nervous about spending so much money on a DSLR, but I couldn't be happier with it's performance. Definitely buy te filters though, they make the end product all that more "professional" looking.

		Nikon D-5000	August - 13 - 2010
		by J Neil I am retired from 45 years in the commercial mortgage banking business. All of our submissions to investors required a good deal of photography to tell the story well. I only wish we had been able to use a camera like the D-5000. I started out on the digital path with a Nikon D-100. Then upgraded to a D-80 and have added the D-5000 as a supplemental camera. It allows me to take video, do wierd positioning with the flex live view monitor, allows me to have two set ups with different lens ability and the D-5000 has other advanced features that are benefical such as self cleaning. I am obviously partial to Nikon for several reasons, not the least of which is the metal case as opposed to the competitions plastic. For the price and the features the D-5000 is hard to beat.

		excellent picture quality - good buy	August - 07 - 2010
		by hi2satish I am novice user for the SLR world. D5000 was very easy to use and I really liked the picture quality. There are loads of features, which I am still learning. And the features were well thought of and nicely designed. Colors in the picture came excellent. I never knew that my backyard is so beautiful! Coming to video part of it, it is not so great I should say. I have taken video using my canon powershot and it gave better video quality than D5000 video. I have an iMac at home and D5000 video was little grainy. Basically dont buy this D5000 for video purpose. See D3000 closely if you are not a video user.
