I bought this camera 3 years ago and since this time I have taken thousands of pictures. The camera is a half professional equipment which means it could be used in both professional and unprofessional fields. Personally I like this camera very much. It has many useful functions (extended white balance function, bracketing, image overlay, interval timer shooting, etc). It has good shutter speed up to 1/8000 sec and wide range of ISO 100-1600 (up to ISO 3200 with boost). It has 2 different file formats: RAW which gives you uncompressed pictures and popular JPEG (3 levels). 10.2 million effective pixels gives you image size up to 3872-2592. I like its big (2.5") and with high resolution (230.000 pixels) LCD monitor. You can see your pictures in really good quality. Its body made from magnesium alloy is well designed. You can very easily reach all buttons and knobs.
I do not recommend you to buy SIGMA lens DC 18-200 as I found it is very slow to set focus on an object comparing to Nikkor lenses.

Also I found a weak point of this camera's body. After a few months of using I lost two plastic covers for cable connections. They just fell off the camera. Moreover the rubber covers to facilitate holding the camera just unstacked from the body.

Otherwise I recommend this camera.
