I wanted to shoot video, and got the D5600 because it has the fully articulating screen.
-
All of the settings are easy to use, and with the touch screen easy to adjust.
-
The camera itself is also excellent, the flexible screen is an immensely useful feature

The Good: Great Image Quality under almost all lighting conditions; Fully articulating LCD; Small & light (& very solid) DSLR; Incremental ISO adjustments between stops; Bracketing; Decent Live View & Touch screen; DOF preview, Automatic sensor cleaning (No longer on the D3xxx series); High Resolution (24MP) sensorHow to be even better: No dedicated WB or ISO button (although the FN button can be programmed for 1 of those or some other functions); No ability to save global settings and assign to a button on the mode dial (like in the D7xxx series); Only one SD slot; No top LCD (although this camera may simply be too small).Like almost all cameras, the built in flash is not great; an external speedlight with bounce capabilities is really essential for properly exposed photographs (or alternatively not using a flash at all and shooting at a higher ISO/slower shutter speed)

The other difference I liked was the articulated view screen in the back of the camera
