Contrary to an earlier review, this isn't just a point and shoot camera. It CAN be if that's what you want, but it can be anything from completely automatic to a full manual. Like most autofocus SLRs, the N65 has several pre-set modes (portrait, landscape, sport, etc.) to take some of the guesswork out of your pictures, and variable control modes which allow you to take control of any or all of the cameras functions.
The N65 is touted as a great entry-level autofocus, but I consider myself an advanced intermediate photographer and I still haven't outgrown mine.
There are many autofocus SLRs that have similar features, and you can probably find something cheaper, but hey; This is a Nikon. What more can I say?!
