Pros
good picture quality, easy to use, several pre-adjusted scene modes, small size.

Limited options to manually tune exposure, small buttons for big fingers.

My user experiences are marked in italics.
The Nikon D5100 is a DSLR camera ("digital single lens reflex" so what you see through the optical viewfinder or on the LCD screen is what you get in the photo; you are literally seeing through the lens, so there is no parallax error). I bought it...
