i still have my D3200 since 2012, it's still my to-go camera for travelling and vacation, never giving it away!!!

[azolaun]

The Nikon d3100 was such a solid pick I'm glad you said the pros and the cons. Because even though it shoots good pictures it's video its the not the best but that camera was such a greater starter. This camera literally paid for itself after doing some photo shoots for people and was decent for recording me traveling with friends on vacation. I hope you can cover some more camera that are great for shooting video on a budget. I had a sony cybershot for like $150-$200 that shot very steady and good high definition

I still have my D80! I shoot it with the old 50mm f/1.8 AF-D lens, and there's something about the results that just look great to me. Plus, I work in education and often will give the camera to kids to see what they can do, and the results are so much fun, good stuff!

[marksieving]

One advantage of the Nikon D80 over the D3100 that was not mentioned is that the D80 has an autofocus motor in the camera body, so it can use older AF lenses that don't have a built-in motor. The D3100 needs AF-S lenses for autofocus and can only do manual focus with older lenses.

Another older CCD DSLR I enjoy using is the Nikon D40. I am still amazed after all these years the quality and rich colors it is capable of rendering.

[calebcourteau]

The Nikon D80 was my first serious digital camera. Ergonomically it's the best camera I've ever used. The only reason I left Nikon was because they refused to expand their line of small, light primes for APS-C. I miss that camera.

[camerone]

I liked the D80 a lot for its controls; it handles quite well in my opinion. I like having the top LCD and more physical buttons compared to one of the smaller DSLRs or mirrorless options

[Analogbrain]

Nice video! The best digital cameras I've bought for 100$ or less is:
1. Canon 550d
2. Sony a55
3. Pentax k10d (CCD)

[charlesdavis]

My first DSLR was the D80. Loved it. Didn't know about the CCD vs. CMOS sensors; thanks for explaining. I have a D750 and D500 now. As great as they are, I'd swear that pix I took with the D80 are often just as good, which usually relates to the CCD sensor.

[eyeofalchemy]

I love old cameras, and this video has them in spades, so I obviously enjoyed watching!

[wdwqliu]

ok wrong not one of these camera are under 100$ wtf

[centriciumdigital]

You don't need the latest and greatest mirrorless or DSLR to take great pics!

[repmidwest]

D5100 is similar to the 3100, but has an articulating screen. Similar specs and price range, too. And a work-around the auto video settings is the exposure lock. You can set it once it adjusts to the lighting, and then release it and reset it when the lighting changes. Not perfect, but gives you a little more control.

[JohnEsperancilla]

a little budget, and the Nikon D90 is the perfect camera for the budget. that's what i use!

[chodzsiepowoczymy]

It's always good to look for body and lens options, it is often cheaper when people sell an old gear and doesn't have much knowledge about the cameras. My first interchangeable lens camera was Canon EOS M, I bought it with ef M 18-55 in 2019 for 780 PLN which is 158 USD now (was closer to 200 USD few years ago because we have greater inflation now than US). The lens alone was worth more... I used it for 2 years and then switched to Fuji which was a major improvement for me in the terms of image quality

[DerbyMods]

I rocked a d3200 for years until I got a d7100 which could auto focus my tokina 100mm macro lens, I would not be surprised if the D3100 was just as usable. It ended up being a pretty good body as a webcam with a $5 HDMI to USB adapter and power adapter.

[omegaman]

I bought a D90 used for $69. It looks great. Very usable. Anyone can shoot these days. By the time the D90 came out the DSLR was well established.

[pseudoryx]

In case nobody has clarified this for you: the Dxx series ended at D90 (because Dxxx are FX & the 2 pro DX bodies) and was replaced by the Dxxxx series, with the D7xxx being the true successor while the D5xxxx and D3xxx are dumbed-down versions.

[prylosecorsomething]

I recently picked up a Canon 30D for relatively cheap and I've been absolutely loving it. I slapped an ancient EF mount kit lens on it and I've been doing car photography for my friends. For the money I spent I'm happy

[HaiTomVlog]

The Nikon D3100 was my first DSLR with the 35mm f/1.8g - I loved that set up!
