  • The feel of the controls is smooth and luxurious. The supplied lens can hunt a little for focus on low contrast subjects but, in general, the camera is very responsive. The shutter and mirror are well damped and make a sweet noise. Automatic lens distortion correction is good.
  • A threeexposure bracket mode is inadequate. And because there is no inbody focus drive, the older Nikkor lenses won't auto focus
  • For anyone looking for an entry into the Nikon system this is the camera to consider. The D5300 uses a sensor that is also fitted to other Nikon APS-C models, as well as to other brands such as Sony and Pentax. There is nothing cut-down about the internal...

  • Good size and comfortable to hold, 24MP sensor offers good clarity and potential for cropping, Wi-Fi for sharing photos while on the go
  • Slow performance in live view mode, Optical viewfinder misses about 5 per cent of details at the sides
  • Nikon's D5300 is an entry-level digital SLR camera that will suit those of you looking to make the leap to a more advanced camera than a compact or smartphone camera. It can be a versatile shooter as long as you have the right lenses, and it's available i...

  • With all of Nikon's DX cameras now having 24-megapixel sensors, most potential purchasers will be wondering whether it's worthwhile paying extra for the D5300, when there's a cheaper D3300 available. The size and weight differences between the two camera ...

  • New sensor, No antialiasing filter, Highres variangle screen, WiFi builtin, EXPEED 4 processor
  • Mainly onscreen control, No touchscreen, Special Effects JPEG only
  • It would be easy to dismiss the changes made with the D5300 as minor, but there is much more to a camera than its pixel count. And a processing engine is just as important as a sensor when it comes to image quality. The new sensor design and the removal o...

  • Built-in Wi-Fi and GPS. Mostly comfortable shooting design. Good video quality
  • No huge jump in image quality or sharpness over the D5200. Smartphone app could have more features. Positioning of Live View switch is awkward for one-handed shooting
  • The D5300 is a competent mid-range SLR to suit a variety of lifestyles and photographic situations....
