3 Stars SOFTWARE MISSING A SIMPLE OPTION, but very Happy with D5000
Just got my Camera, it’s great. Amazing pics when compared to my point and shoot. I still have alot to learn about it but I am very dissapointed in the transfer software. My old point and shoot Canon has Zoombrowser software which easily transfers your pics to your computer and organizes the file folders by the date the picture was taken…. Awsome, easy to find stuff. The Nikon software’s only option that is close is to organize the files by the date you transfer them to your computer and putting the date the picture was taken in the file name (for each picture). IT works so so if you tranfer every few days… but if you go on a holiday for 2 weeks and come home to put a few hundred pics on your computer, well then there will be one folder with all the pics in it with only the file name to indicate the date. The only way to organize them after that is manually

COME ON NIKON this in not rocket science, it’s a simple option that needs to be programmed.

I am looking to make my Nikon compatible with the Canon software or use another program.

Camera gets 5 star rating

Software gets 1 stars.

5 Stars Nikon is a legend
Yet another champion from Nikon. I love this camera. Light, easy to use, great help function and never the less I checked it as soon as it arrived and it does not fall under any of the recalls. I think amazon either depleted the stock of recalled ones or got them exchanged. I received mine on September 21st. Go Nikon!!! Very happy with this purchase

5 Stars Love it!
I am in love!! I have been looking at purchasing this camera for a while now. I tried it out at my local wolf camera but, it was cheaper through Amazon. I was hesitating to buy it since I heard of the recall but, I read in a forum that Amazon looked through their stock and eliminated the cameras that fell into the recall. I took the plunge and I bought it and as soon as I received it I checked if in fact it was recall free and it was! I have been snapping away since. It has great image quality and it is fairly easy to use. You do have to take a little time to read the manual and figure out where everything is in the menu but, I think it is worth it. Love the kit lens. I really have nothing negative to say, I’m an amateur photographer and this camera is just perfect!

5 Stars Camera of my dreams
I finally made an impulse purchase and bought the camera of my dreams.I have been saying for years that I am going to upgrade my camera because I would really like to get more into photography,its been a passion of mine for years.So yesterday it happened.Nikon makes the best digital products on the market and this one is no exception.Easy to manuever and the color photos are brillant which I love because landscape scenary is what I am into.I love this product and I recommend it to anyone!

1 Star Nikon deviating from making great cameras
I am extremely disappointed that Nikon has decided to thrown everything into the camera body.

If I wanted to get a camera that did video, I’d buy a video camera. A camera with better zoom, better handling comfort, ability to record long periods of time.

Video on NIKON SLR is not good, it does not have the focusing of a traditional video camera. How bout watching a video where everything in the background is blurry? But that is not the point.

I want a semipro or cheaper camera made by a company that is dedicated to auto focus speed, better sensors, faster photo processing, etc. Id rather see Nikon put more effort in making extreme zoom lenses cheaper than fool around with video. What happened with the additional clear pixel sensor that Kodak developed a couple years ago? Why isn’t Nikon jumping on that?

good grief Nikon..are you giving up on making a great camera?

You still have a long ways to go on the CAM. There are too many CAM 1000s out there. How about CAM 5000,,,let make some progress instead of stalling with stupid video additions.

Maybe Nikon can put the following into the camera as well:

itunes

3G internet access

a taser

text messaging

and a compartment for a raincoat

yah that will be a nice DSLR! NOT!
