Depending on your situations. 28mm is not very far and you need to get walk closer to things. I recommend the 50mm F1.8 because it's cheaper and opens wider.
Nikon offers two types of autofocus digital camera bodies: those with a built-in focus drive motor and those which require a lens to have a motor. Cameras such as the D60 do not have a focus motor in it so they require the lens to have the focusing motor – an “AF-S” lens. While these bodies can use a lens with no focus motor (an “AF” lens) you would have to manually turn the focus ring to bring the subject in to sharp focus.

The AF NIKKOR 28mm f/2.8D can be use with D3100. However, autofocus will not work because neither the D3100 nor the AF NIKKOR 28mm f/2.8D has an autofocus motor.
