  • The D5500 is a competent camera that can meet most of the needs of its target market. Upgrading to the D5500 could be justified for buyers who skip a couple of generations, as well as owners of two or three year old D3*** models.The main benefit of the D5...

  • Variangle touchscreen, Proven sensor, Small size and low weight
  • The optical viewfinder in a DSLR doesn't show the effect of camera adjustments, GPS unit gone
  • There may be some who are disappointed that the D5500 doesn't make any huge leaps in pixel count, but 24 million pixels is more than enough for most uses. The files (usually) have plenty of detail, noise can be controlled well and the memory card or comp...

  • Excellent image quality, compact and light, 3.2-inch fully articulating LCD screen, advanced Auto ISO controls, decent battery life
  • No aperture control or Auto ISO in movie mode, basic smartphone app
  • Nikon D5500 is a compact and lightweight DSLR camera that clicks great quality images and comes packed with features a photography enthusiast would ever need. It lacks aperture control but overall it's a great bet with decent battery backup.As compared t...

  • Light, compact unit, Fast autofocus, Fluid touchscreen interface, Excellent dynamic range, Massive array of compatible lenses, Wireless connectivity
  • Light body not ideal for heavy lenses, No antialiasing filter, No in-built GPS
  • The Nikon D5500 is an excellent DSLR in the budget segment. While it is an incremental upgrade over the Nikon D5300, there are different customer groups to whom the D5500 will make sense. For entry-level photographers looking for more lenses, the D5300 wi...

  • Detailed images, Monocoque design, Articulated touchscreen
  • Relatively cramped viewfinder
  • For the most part, a few little changes can add up to a great camera with the Nikon D5500. It's got the same sensor and processor as the D53300, but some improvements to the way it handles make it a more tempting proposition overall.For those who are on t...

  • Amazingly small, very well designed grip, touchscreen features are welcome, featurepacked
  • Viewfinder image could be larger, battery life is good but not great
  • I really enjoyed using the D5500 – the various tweaks Nikon has made to this camera certainly aren't revolutionary, but they make the camera a lot more usable.On top of that, the grip design is so good that it almost makes you forget you're holding...

  • We like the size, weight and handling of the D5500. Image quality is very good as can be seen from the sample shots.The only issue is that it doesn't really bring you that much more in terms of improved image quality over the D5300 it replaces, and so cur...

  • Compact and lightweight body, Decent build quality for an entry-level camera, Improved camera grip, Articulating display, Display offers good outdoor legibility and is responsive to touch inputs, Relatively fast autofocus, Addition of new 3D Subject Track
  • about it:
  • In recent times, we noticed that Nikon has fallen in to a trend of releasing a new version of their DSLR camera almost once every year. But instead of giving the new models a complete design/feature overhaul, these “new” models are mostly a reincarnation...
