Reviews around shot (5.00 of 5)

  • However, I can state the camera takes excellent shots and will not disappoint, amateur or pro alike
  • it's not like you can't get great shots from the start while you learn
  • For the amateur who wants to take excellent, reproducible shots, this is an excellent product.
  • The kit lens takes solid shots and I have gotten some great use out of it
  • But at Easter I was able to take great shots with the new D5300 did not buy for the wifi

Reviews around upgrade (4.69 of 5)

  • Love my camera upgrade....has so many features I still need to learn, but have used it for 2 photoshoots so far and loving it!
  • Shooting with a good sharp lens like the Nikon 85mm F/1.8G, the detail at 100% zoom is amazing
  • ISO then you might find the camera frustrating as you sometimes will have to navigate the software on the camera.
  • I have a lot to learn about it's use and am the functions, as well as how to take a great picture
  • The most important upgrades, to me, are the superior image quality and autofocusing.

Reviews around range (4.67 of 5)

  • The dynamic range and resolution are much more than expected, without going into laboratory analysis
  • Of course, the most important thing is this: If you set this camera up correctly and point it in the right direction, it can produce some very stunning images with great dynamic range and color at more than adequate resolutions
  • Out of the box, the dynamic range is wonderful, and color realistic and well balanced
  • Take a look at the storm clouds image I've uploaded to get an idea of dynamic range
  • The camera has other features including "effects," and HDR (high dynamic range) shooting, which combines two shots of an image using different exposures
  • Read remaining 19 reviews for range

Reviews around picture (4.59 of 5)

  • You really have to work at taking a bad picture with this camera
  • This is an okay camera for the money if you're just looking to take cat pictures and Niagra Falls pictures on your vacation.
  • It's definitely harder to take pictures in lowlight, my pictures with the lights is a big noisy as the only other exterior lighting was a light box
  • Beautiful camera that takes even more beautiful pictures and videos.
  • Love this camera and have never gotten a bad picture from it

Reviews around feature (4.55 of 5)

  • Just like with most of these cameras, there are more features than i know what to do with
  • ISO then you might find the camera frustrating as you sometimes will have to navigate the software on the camera.
  • It even has built-in WiFi and GPS and a great video feature
  • It is fairly light weight and has lots of great features
  • I also own the D7100 but have found it too heavy for all day excursions around my neck and it lacks the movable swivel feature of the rear LCD that this camera has

Reviews around screen (4.42 of 5)

  • What I like best about the D5300: APS-C sensor; Live View; Fully articulated screen; Just enough customization menu items to suit my needs w/o making me feel like an idiot ;); wi-fi (I'm hoping someone develops an app allowing for remote manipulation of camera controls
  • I find myself making the mistake of trying to pivot the screen the wrong direction each time.
  • I chose the D5300 over the D7100 simply because of the articulated rear screen
  • The camera is very lightweight, has a gorgeous display, a fully articulating screen.
  • Really nice camera, 24 MP sensor lots of excellent features, particularly like the articulating screen

Reviews around lens (4.12 of 5)

  • I will just tell you that if you put a great Nikon lens on this little body you will have superb results
  • If you're continuing on your photography journey you should certainly consider this camera and if like me, you already have some of the inexpensive kit lenses, treat yourself to a more expensive zoom or prime lens and grow your overall capabilities.
  • I had a lot of people tell me to get a static lens (non-zoom), but I knew myself and that zoom would be important to me.
  • If you're ok with no warranty, opened/used product and the wrong lens, then this might be the camera for you! :-)
  • It's cumbersome to change from the other kit lens (18 to 55 and then the 55 to 200) while out an about.

Reviews around battery (2.37 of 5)

  • It has good battery life, great photos (when you know what your doing and are on the right settings), good video, and a good fit and finish (for me)
  • Great battery life (new to me, compared to point-and-shoots)5
  • Not only it is useless for the trip, it also drain the battery much faster than I like or expect
  • Built-in flash is not good• Battery life is not good,even gps & wifi eats more battery, spare battery highly recommended• AF works best with inbuilt motor lens unlike D7100,but manual focus is not an issue
  • High battery drain with gps on, even when camera is asleep.

Reviews around gps (2.01 of 5)

  • If you are willing to pay a little more for the D5300 accepting that GPS is useless, I would go for it
  • A GPS lock can take a few seconds - be sure to download the free Assisted-GPS update file from Nikon at least once a month to speed up GPS locating: [...]
  • The D5300's standardized 2-lines-across-the-bottom Nikon style is a drastic improvement.7) GPS
  • The problems with the D5300's GPS are obvious when compared side-by-side to other products
  • Although the GPS is faster now , it also seems less accurate
