[Kevin M]

hi
I am looking for some assistance please, has anyone by seen a review of this new camera yet...I am not looking at purchasing this camera myself, however a work associate has asked me about it and I am unable to locate any proper reviews on this unit (to date).
Anyone who can help point me in the right direction here - will be appreciated.
regards

http://www.dpreview.com/previews/Nikond3100/ its only a preview. It takes a while for detailed reviews to happen.

Thom Hogan ( http://www.bythom.com/index.htm ) in discussing the sensors Nikon is using in its new cameras states that the rolling shutter problem during video shooting as bad as he's ever seen. Thom is regarded as highly authoratative.
So if video is your thing maybe the D3100 isnot your answer.

thank you to both you (Kym & Rob)...the work colleague will be particularly interested to hear about the video shooting issue.....
