  • Excellent photo quality, a great feature set, and speedy performance put the Nikon D5300 ahead of the pack
  • The default settings could be better and Live View is still really slow to use
  • The Nikon D5300 is a great choice as a general-purpose dSLR.

  • The new Nikon D5300 is a rather modest upgrade of the previous D5200 model, with new wi-fi and GPS functions, enhanced video recording, a larger LCD screen, a smaller body and the removal of the optical low-pass filter. D5200 owners probably won't find e...

  • No touch-screen, Poor Battery life, No viewfinder eye sensor, Lacklustre wi-fi features.
  • The Nikon D5300 is what's often referred to in the technology world as an 'evolutionary' upgrade. Nikon has abandoned the D5200's optical low pass filter, which might have been considered revolutonary a year ago, but now looks, to borrow a fashion ind...
