Nice camera
This is my first SLR camera i have. It took me a lot of time to decide to change from a point and shoot to a more proffesional camera.

Compact, great feature set, great low light image capture, good video capture
Perfect for the vacationer or hobbyist. The lack of an auto focus motor in the body is a non issue for most users.

Amazing camera
I bought this camera from Amazon. It’s my first SLR. Photo quality is exceptional. I love the one touch live view which is not present in most of the SLRs.

Great SLR
Having bought my first D-SLR (a Nikon D60) last November, I was intrigued with the announcement of the D5000.

superb
I* owned Nikon d 60 before and liked it a lot7 But then Nikon d 5000 came out and I was hooked. Great camera. Sharp pictures with kit lens. Image quality is superb.

Great upgrade from the D40, but Auto White Balance doesn’t work reliably
I bought a D5000 locally ten days ago and exchanged it for another one three days ago.
The first thing I did was get out in the early morning light and take some…

Great Camera
Overall, this is a great camera. The gentleman writing the 1 star review apparently bought this camera with incompatible expectations.

First DSLR and I Couldn’t Be Happier!
I decided to upgrade to a DSLR a few months ago because I wanted to learn to take the fabulous pictures that I had come to associate with DSLRs.

Perfect DSLR!
I am beyond happy with my new D5000. I am what you’d call a “pre-professional” and this camera has produced amazing shots for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Skip this Nikon Model, LiveView Doesn't Work
The ineffective "LiveView" mode on the D5000 may prompt Nikon to recall this model, trust me, it is that bad.
