Any thoughts on a Nikon D3000?

I found a used Nikon D3000 within my price range. It's rated "like new." I'm a poor college student, so it's really either that or a point and shoot. Is the D3000 worth it, or since it's at the low end, would a really good point and shoot be better?

Any thoughts on a Nikon D40?

Hi! I'm a college student in the market for basically the cheapest dSLR I can find. I found a Nikon D40 online within my budget. I've read that it's basically the end of the foodchain as far as dSLRs go, but I've also read that even the worst dSLR is better than a regular Point and Shoot. Any recommendations?

Added (1). I've also found a refurbished Nikon D3000 within my range. Which would you recommend?

Is a Sigma lens compatible with a Nikon D50?

I have a Nikon D50 and was just given a Sigma ZOOM MASTER 1:3.5~4.5 35-70mm Multi-Coated lens. I was told that the lens would fit on my D50 body, but in attempting to attach it… Well, it doesn't.

Is it meant to? Do I need to get something to fit it on there? Or is it not compatible at all?

Playback button on my Nikon D3100 won't work?

It just doesn't work. I looked at my settings, and most of the playback options are gray and when I try and click on them, it says that those options aren't available with my current settings. I have no idea what settings that is referring to.

What is the difference between a Nikon 1 and the Nikon D3200 camera?

I a complete beginner in DSLR cameras - never even used one. But I want to learn. I'm wanting to buy my first DSLR camera - but can't figure out which one to buy. I like the Nikon 1 camera series because of it's design and some of the 'quirky' photography features. But the Nikon D3200 seems like a better entry level DSLR. I want to know if I will be able to do everything with the Nikon 1 camera that I could do with the D3200. If I bought the Nikon 1 what would I NOT be able to do with it. Is the Nikon 1 a DSLR. I don't want to start learning more and find I need to buy the D3200 at a later date. So to cut a long story short what is the difference between the 2 cameras? :/

Nikon d5100 50mm or 35mm?

I will be buying a nikon d5100 and I'm not sure if I should get the 35mm 1.8g or the 50mm 1.8g. I'm fixed on a prime lens because from my research they take sharper images. I have no problem using my feet to zoom in and out. My main goal is to take beautiful photos of my kids at home and when we're out. Would the 35mm be too far a view or will the 50mm be too zoomed in for home photos? Or is the kit lens fine for my goals?
