    Nikon D5600 DSLR with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR and 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G ED

    • The Nikon D5600 is a simply a great DSLR in a really small and lightweight package especially when using the bundled 18-55mm collapsible lens
    • So overall if you’re looking for a great DSLR for video, the Nikon D5600 might not be the best, but it’s good
    • 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 24.2 MP is awesome my first DSLR at the same
    • I wanted a good quality DSLR to take my first step into more than “beginner” photography
    • I've owned a number of Nikon "enthusiast" DSLR bodies going back to the D60, D5000, D5100, D5200, and the D5300
    • I enjoy Astro-photography and would like to save a grouping of settings to a profile called "Astro-photography" containing settings for Manual Bulb Exposure, ISO speed, disabling Active-D Lighting, enabling Long Exposure NR, etc...
