i was curious if this camera can take good pictures at night or in darker places. i know there are many cameras when they only take good pictures in the daytime. i love to take pictures but currently, all i have is a phone with a camera in it. and the quality isn't that good. if this one doesn't take good pictures at night as well as day, then do you have any recommendations for other cameras that hopefully aren't too expensive? please don't answer if you don't know what your talking about. thanks.

Hello Rebecca.
I bought my first 35mm film SLR in July of 1971 and have been learning about and enjoying photography ever since.
Low light photography, especially without using a flash, is aided by a fast lens like the Nikon AF-S 50mm f1.4G. The slow (f3.5-5.6) kit lens is not a good lens for low light situations. Photography is defined as "painting or drawing with light" so a lens with more light-gathering ability is needed indoors or in other low light situations.
If the above paragraph is confusing then you really should consider taking a couple of photography classes if possible. If you can't take classes then you need to begin reading these books:
"Understanding Exposure" & "Understanding Shutter Speed", both by Bryan Peterson.
"Digital SLR Handbook" by John Freeman.
Rebecca, simply buying a camera like the Nikon D3000 will not magically enable you to begin making good pictures under varying conditions. You have to be willing to invest the time required to learn how to use the camera by READING & STUDYING the Owner's Manual and by taking classes or doing the additional reading I suggested. Doing all three would be your best choice. If you aren't willing to do this then you might want to reconsider spending $600.00 for what will likely become a fancy paperweight.
Carpenters and plumbers and mechanics and electricians all attend classes to learn their trades.
One doesn't simply pick up a hammer and declare that that they are a carpenter.
One doesn't pick up a pair of wire strippers and a roll of electrical tape and declare that they are an electrician.
One doesn't simply buy a DSLR and declare that they are a photographer.

Vignetting at 18mm - Nikon D3100. 18-55mm lens?
M?t
I'm new to photography and I have no idea there is always some vignetting at 18mm. I don't seem to be able to shoot at 18mm. The vignetting only disappears at 24mm. Is there something wrong with my camera/lens?
Answer
Your camera and lens are fine.
The problem is either with using a UV filter that is causing vignetting or worse you have purchased a generic lens hood which is designed for a different lens.
The lens hood you need for your lens is the HB-45 Lens Hood.
You will not get vignetting using this lens hood
