OK.. so the new D300s is a bit expensive for the average consumer – that’s why Nikon also introduced last week the new affordable D3000 digital SLR camera. The camera features a new guide mode, a 10.2 megapixel resolution, and an extensive Retouch Menu for in-camera picture editing.

The full features and specs of the D3000 include:

• 11 point autofocus system
• EXPEED image processing
• Active D-Lighting system
• 3D color matrix metering II
• Guide Mode is an easy-to-use interface for newcomers to digital SLR photography providing step-by-step instructions
• Three inch 230K dot LCD display with easier-to-read font size
• 3D Subject Tracking
• In-camera retouch menu allows users to apply effects to images
• Capture images in NED (RAW) format
• Stop-Motion Movie Mode
• 10.2 megapixel CCD image sensor
• ISO range from ISO 100 to 1600
• Supports Eye-Fi memory card functions

The Nikon D3000 will be available later this month for a price of $599.95.
