  • Abstract:  There's a new DSLR in the Nikon range, the D5300, which slots into the line-up alongside the D5200 model. Pocket-lint was on hand to get a feel for the new DSLR at a Nikon pre-launch event. It was only eight months ago that we saw the final D5200 model, s...

  • New sensor, No anti, aliasing filter, High, res vari, angle screen, Wi, Fi built, in, EXPEED 4 processor
  • Mainly on, screen control, No touch, screen, Special Effects JPEG only
  • The vari-angle screen and Effect modes encourage the user to shoot in live view mode (and compose the image on screen), but the live view AF system's performance lags behind that of many compact system cameras, and the screen isn't touch-sensitive.However...

  • Built-in 2.5mm mic socket, App performance is disappointing with Wi-Fi, Disappointing kit lens, Lacking in live view app previews
  • Although the Nikon D5300 certainly isn't perfect, with the lack of a touchscreen and a high price-tag at launch two noticeable issues, it's among best DSLRs on the market and is certainly worthy of consideration if you're in the market for an upgrade from...

  • Abstract:  It's been barely a year since D5200 model came out, and the photographers already have the option of obtaining the newest Nikon model, D5300. Considering that not too much time have passed, it's to be expected that D5300 can't really offer anything revolu...

  • Easy to handle and us, Captured images have plenty of detail and accurate colo, Built-in GP, High ISO capability
  • 18-140mm kit lens is rather large and loses fine detai, Some controls are oddly place, Noise reduction can be overly aggressive
  • Nikon's new enthusiast DSLR offers a few upgrades over the D5200, such as GPS and Wi-Fi, but continued high image-quality is the best feature. The Nikon D5300 is a DSLR for enthusiasts who want a bit more than a basic model (such as Nikon's own...

  • 24-megapixel sensor with no optical low-pass filter. Sharp vari-angle display. Excellent JPG detail at high ISO. 4.7fps continuous shooting. 39-point autofocus system. Quick startup. 1080p60 video capture. Integrated Wi-Fi and GPS. Standard mic input.
  • Images on the noisy side. Will not autofocus with screw-drive lenses. Pentamirror viewfinder. Single control wheel. Self-timer deactivates after use. Lacks depth of field preview
  • The Nikon D5300 D-SLR is a modest upgrade from the previous model, but it's just as worthy, making it our Editors' Choice for entry-level D-SLRs....

  • Abstract:  Size and design. While the D5300 retains the same basic layout and form as the D5200, it's now even more compact, measuring 4.9 x 3.9 x 3 inches (125 x 98 x 76mm) compared to the 5.1 x 3.9 x 3.1 inch (129 x 98 x 78mm) dimensions of its predecessor. The ne...

  • AAfilterless sensor makes it more prone to moire, Burst speed slows with highest quality 14bit RAW images, Live View mode not as good as some competitors, No external headphone jack, GPS receiver not very sensitive
  • Despite being an evolutionary upgrade to the D5200, the Nikon D5300 sports a newly developed 24.2MP sensor without an AA filter for enhanced sharpness, and Nikon's latest EXPEED 4 processor for better high ISO handling and 1080/60p HD video. The addition...
