So, if you receive this twice, I apologize!:) Thanks, Joy, for this great camera review. Our first digital camera was similar to the point and shoot you talked about ~ just in the Sony version. It took lovely photos and videos. However, I wanted to expand my photography skills and trying to figure out the settings and buttons for "manual" was complicated and frustrating! My husband than bought me a Nikon 3100 with an upgraded lens (18-105). I love it very much!! I really like the range of the lens, and the simplicity of use. It's been a great camera as I, too, have been learning how to take indoor pictures in low light. Happy camera shopping. I look forward to hearing what you choose. {And, no, Nikon didn't pay me to say nice things about their camera. But, if they want to, they sure can! tee hee...}ritajoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17660790409421682773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675290001384708649.post-84673285772081432572012-08-31T16:47:30.799-07:002012-08-31T16:47:30.799-07:00Thanks for your input, I may have to rethink getti...Thanks for your input, I may have to rethink getting a DSLR.Joy@Thrifty Parsonage Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12803809176994311396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675290001384708649.post-38844917305177317942012-08-31T16:45:48.920-07:002012-08-31T16:45:48.920-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Joy@Thrifty Parsonage Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12803809176994311396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675290001384708649.post-70521600903522287182012-08-31T16:13:32.351-07:002012-08-31T16:13:32.351-07:00You've done a lot of research!

I never even had a digital camera until I got my iPhone, so I'm not the best person to advise, but good luck on finding what you need!Kellie @ Delightfully Ludicroushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18226603919012169939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675290001384708649.post-58181730858558914362012-08-31T16:10:06.368-07:002012-08-31T16:10:06.368-07:00I have the Nikon D3000 (3100 came out right after ...I have the Nikon D3000 (3100 came out right after I bought mine) and love it. I've read that once you get a DSLR body, just buying new lenses really makes new photos, so that is next on my list, buying some new lenses to really try out new pictures. I shoot on auto or manual (even though I've never taken classes) and always like what I get.twinkietotmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06153192477171698942noreply@blogger.com
