Jeg er soooooo spændt! Mandag jeg endelig fik min jul / B-dag gave…en ny Nikon D3100 DSLR komplet med den bestand 18-55mm Nikkor AF-S VR samt AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED objektiv, og nogle andre assorterede godbidder. Kan du sige barn i en slikbutik!
Nu kan jeg sige, at jeg på ingen måde en fotograf. Indtil for nylig havde jeg ringe interesse i fotografering og aldrig ejet noget bedre end et punkt og skyde kameraet; og jeg var ikke engang specielt godt med at. Dette begyndte at ændre, da min datter blev født 8 måneder siden. Jeg begyndte at nyde at tage billeder af hende, især, men også af andre ting. Så jeg begyndte at spise Bangkok, og ja jeg er klar over det er min færdighed, som vil gøre den største forskel i min fotografering, men jeg følte, jeg burde i det mindste have ordentlige værktøjer til at hjælpe mig med at være alt, hvad jeg kunne være som en fotograf. Plus Jeg er fyr og du ved, hvordan vi elsker vores dyre elektroniske legetøj!
Jeg tilbragte en hel del tid på at se på forskellene mellem digital SLR's. Canons Rebel XT-serien er et dejligt kamera, men i slutningen af den dag, jeg følte Nikon var en bedre kamera overordnet, ikke nødvendigvis fordi kroppen er bedre, men jeg følte Nikkor objektiver er bedre (selv waaay dyrt i mange tilfælde). Så, på dette tidspunkt var jeg forlod vælge mellem Nikon D90 og Nikon D3100 (hvilket er, hvad jeg fik). Hvordan gjorde jeg vælge mellem de to?
For at være ærlig, som de fleste regnskaber disse er stort set ens kamera. De store forskelle er sensorer, linse kompatibilitet, skærme, HD-film evne, og fuld tid autofokus til video.
Den D3100 slår D90 ved 1.9 megapixel med det 14,2 sensor. Ikke kæmpe, men det er noget. Den D3100 har også bedre ydelse ved høj ISO, vigtigt, hvis du tager billeder i svagt lys, som jeg vil være.
Med hensyn til linse kompatibilitet D90 er vinderen hænderne ned, med en advarsel. Jeg siger sin vinder, fordi den D90 vil autofokus med alle Nikkor-objektiv, mens D3100 vil kun autofokus med de nyere (og dyrere) AF-S lenses. Hvis jeg allerede havde en flok af ældre objektiver dette kan være et problem for mig, men da jeg bare er startet ud, ikke så meget. Jeg tror også, at få en ældre linse, som jeg er tvunget til manuel fokusering (Jeg tænker det primære 50mm f1.8 objektiv) vil være godt for min udvikling som en fotograf.
Skærmen er en stor forskel på disse to kamera er også. D90 har de faglige kvalitet 920,000 opløsning monitor der er sød, mens D3100 kommer med en meget lavere opløsning monitor. Jeg planlægger at bruge søgeren alligevel, så det for mig er en anden ikke-problem. Den høje opløsning monitor ville sikkert være rart, men ikke nødvendigt.
Næste op kommer vi til HD filmfunktion. Den D3100 har strålende 1080p fuld HD film kapaciteter, mens D90 falder kort med kun 720p kapaciteter. For at være sikker på D90 er en ældre model og var den første Nikon til funktionen HD filmfunktion på alle, men i denne dag D3100 vinder. Og for at forsøde puljen til D3100 har fuld tid autofokus til at gå sammen med 1080p HD-film!
I betragtning af at jeg vil bruge kameraet både til mad fotografering her samt gør korte film (jep jeg gør film fra Bangkok) HD film funktionalitet var en game changer for mig. Plus D3100 er et par hundrede dollars billigere end D90, som altid hjælper.
Så, det var min tankeproces i at vælge en ny DSLR-kamera til at hjælpe mig til at blive en bedre fotograf for alles skyld. 
Jeg gætte, at mange af jer at tage billeder til dine blogs så godt og jeg er nysgerrig efter at vide, hvilken type kamera du bruger i øjeblikket. Også, hvis omkostningerne ikke var et problem, hvad kamera tror du gerne vil bruge? Jeg vil være ser frem til svarene, og jeg kan fortælle dig, at i morgen vil du få et glimt af nogle af de første billeder jeg har taget med min nye baby.

I own a DSLR EOS Rebel XT which was my fun camera from when I did freelance years and years ago (I also carried around whichever camera my boss had me use at the time which was on a much higher tier than my little Rebel.), but I can’t use it for my blog anymore since I lost the charger!
And I’m too stubborn to spend the 50 bucks to get a new one (I know for sure I’ll find it eventually, even though it’s been missing for years)
Right now, I have a little best-buy pocket camera (Insignia 10 MP) that I use. It’s not great, but it does the job just fine.
Having an SLR would be great, because I can manually adjust things like the ap and shutter speed, but other than that, it’s all about the set-up for taking pictures. I’m sure I could make perfectly nice shots with the insignia if I took the time to fix the lighting and stuff, but most of my pictures I take are on the fly as I struggle to get a picture of the cookies before my son snags one off the plate.
When I was in photography school, we had a guy that was a friend of the man who was in charge of the dark room. He was a very good, professional photo-artist and, while he still did a lot with 35mm, he did a lot of very good stuff with a simple pocket camera. He didn’t even own a DSLR, but his stuff came out great because he had complete control of the lighting and composition and he knew what he was doing. I learned a lot from him.
Anyway, I’m done sounding like a smart-ass now. Good luck, and have fun with that camera.
Lubos from slovakcooking.com here. Haha, looks like we both got new cameras
Yes it sure does
Looks like we’re both pretty pleased too. The long exposure shot of your neighbors house was quite impressive!
wowowoooow!! love your camera features.. and am sure that your daughter will appreciate all her photos when she grows up – thanks for inspiring me – i still take photos with my point and shoot – and i am an extremely addicted taking picture of my two kids – i suck.
oh well, really good thing to see the specs. who knows?
LOL…I suck too, but I’m hoping to improve now that I have a better tool for taking the pictures.
I use a Canon DS-40 most of the time, when I remember to charge it, which is a few years old but not a bad camera. I’d love to upgrade in the next year or so. When I don’t remember to charge it, or I’m out at a restaurant and I’ve got good light coming in the kitchen, I use my iPhone4 cam which does a surprisingly good job.
I’ve heard that the iPhone cam does a pretty good job taking pics even in the low lighting found in restaurants. Judging by the pictures on your site the Canon DS-40 is pretty nice too, even if it’s a few years old.
Tak! I’m looking forward to reading about what you experience and learn with your new camera set up. Tips are always useful!
Congratulations on the new DSLR! Expecting more and more drooling pictures from now on! =D
Thanks and I can say I’m looking forward to taking more drooling pictures too!
I’m using a Nikon CoolPix L110 that my husband gave me for Christmas this year. It’s perfect for me at this point. I’m not all that techno-savvy, so this is all I can handle. LOL We’re expecting our first grandchild this June, so we will definitely get a lot of use from it. I am looking at improving my photography skills for the blog. Do you have any tips on lighting, backgrounds, etc.?
Hi Tammy,
I think the Coolpix is a very good camera, especially if you don’t want to be bothered with all the camera techno babble that comes along with using a DSLR. I’m sure you get great pictures from it and will enjoy using it to photograph the new grandchild…congrats in advance!
I am a rank beginner when it comes to photography, but plan on learning as much as possible so while I don’t have tips now on lighting, backgrounds, etc., I will be learning and posting my experiences and new knowledge here so stay tuned.
Tak for denne! Some time in the next few months I will be purchasing a DSLR camera. I’ve been wanting one for years but am still completely overwhelmed by the purchasing process. Right now I’m using a Canon Elph SD850 – a few years old. Time to upgrade! Enjoy your new toy!
Tak! I’m completely overwhelmed by the features at this point, but am enjoying it immensely. I’m sure if my daughter could talk she’d be telling me to “knock it off already”.
I think the Canon Elph SD850 is a pretty nice point and shoot so I’m sure you’ve had fun with that. I’ll be looking forward to see what you choose to do in a few months time. The DSLR’s are definitely fun!
