I'm 14 years old and I've been taking pictures for a few years and I finally want to get a better camera. If you own one, what are some good things/bad things about it? Better cameras?

The D3100 has the "best bang for the buck" of any sub-$1000 DSLR camera. It has excellent image quality, and is the best for video as it has autofocus while shooting, something only one other camera has from Nikon and Canon- the Nikon D7000 ($1500 with an 18-105mm lens)

first I suggest looking at other options that are within your budget, because I have no idea what that is.

the Nikon D3100 is comparable to the Canon Rebel T2i- so check that out if you want to become a canon user.

The D3100 is your best choice right now - lightest and best out of all, and isn't expensive when compared to others.

Remember, image quality is 99% same on cameras below $2000.
