"Don't judge this camera by reviews! It performs much better than Canon cameras in this price range." on by imiladinovic
Pros: Excellent image quality. 99% of pictures are sharp and well exposed in every conditions. Easy to use.
Cons: Little bit lightweight.
Summary: I own an Canon G1 digital camera, and Nikon 3100. Nikon 3100 outperforms Canon G1 in every automatic or scene mode. It has natural colors, and normal exposed pictures with flash. Canon tends to overexpose all images. You have to manually adjust Canon to get perfect pictures. Canon only has less noise in ISO400 setting (Nikon has automatic ISO). Don't judge this camera by reviews. Try it first. It is not so slow - just use it with LCD on, my longest focus time was about 1 second in very dim places. Shutter lag? Theres no any shutter lag, maybe in the night scene mode, but in other modes, camera is very very responsive. Battery problems? I can take about 200 pictures (80% with flash), with LCD always on for shooting and reviewing (with supplied Nikon Ni-Mh). After a 1500 photos, I can say that this littl thing outperforms Canon in similar class. Also, colors on Nikon are more accurate than on Canon. Same goes for the white balance. And it performs very very good in low light conditions, just experiment little bit with exposure compensation and you will get noise-free pictures.

"Horrible Product and Bad Experience with Nikon" on by dagtoking
Pros: While it lasted this was a very simple camera to use. The Lithium Battery has long life.
Cons: This camera is very fragile.I had the camera less than 30 days before it broke.I kept the camera in a case in my pocket; used it in the morning but when I attempted to use it again in the afternoon the screen had a fine crack and there was bleeding.
Summary: Nikon refused to honor the warranty and claimed I had done something to the camera to cause the crack. Further, Nikon stated I shouldn't have carried the camera in my pocket (even though it was in a protective case). My previous camera (a Sony) lasted for many years with no problems. I will never again buy a Nikon product.

"picture perfect" on by MalikZaidi
Pros: excellent picture quality for price
Cons: bulky size, battery hungry
Summary: i've used this cam for almost 4 years now.. i think its an excellent camera for its price. being a 3 megapixel camera it certainly gives better picture quality than even my new 7 mega pixel sony cybershot. its metering, image sharpness and color is just perfect... so i'd say its "picture perfect"

"Great Camera to take on vacation!!!" on by bobmack
Pros: Portability-quality of pictures-Scene Modes
Cons: Battery life-Small 1.5" LCD-Hard to see in strong light
Summary: I just came back from Europe and took this small lightweight camera everywhere I went with no problems. The picture quality is excellent. Had proble with seeing the LCD in strong sunlight-had to use the very small viewfinder. When using alkaline batteries the life was very bad. Use the throw away CRV2 battery you can everywhere.
