I’m very pleased with the camera, exactly what I wanted, although disappointed a user manual wasn’t included.

I have owned one of these before (stolen) so wanted to replace it as it is a great lightweight travel camera which despite having a cut down sensor, with a 25MPx sensor still produces very good quality images.Limits to functionality is the compromise for a small, lightweight unit - amongst others: only one wheel for speed and aperture, no record in playback of focus point of picture, no ability to calibrate different lenses (not really an issue with the one I got as I tested a number of lenses and found them all very close).It does not really compare to the larger full frame cameras with around 40MPx sensors for critical applications but would be a great beginner's camera or one to have as a backup/travel camera. It is a pity that this model has been or is soon to be discontinued. A number of people have complained about the effectiveness of Snap Bridge. I got my previous camera to work after some perseverance and hope to get this one up and going againCamera came with strap, battery and lens cap and was well packaged. One omission is the lack of a manual booklet - you have to download it. I did so with the last one I owned and printed it on double sided A5 paper for a reasonably compact booklet. However, I have stored the downloaded manual file on my phone, which, once you're familiar with the camera is quite adequate

The item was perfectly packed to ensure no damage. It works exactly as it should. I am very happy with it, thank you. My only concern was with the delivery provider, who did not identify where the item originated from and that it was via Amazon. Because there are so many scams these days I ignored two messages from them prior to receiving my package.

This is your 4th Nikon and it’s my fav. It’s light, compact , easy to point and shoot or if you choose you can become artistic using shutter or aperture priority, this cam has all the bells and whistles and you can be as creative as you desire with in camera editing, shoot and post directly to any social media platform. It uses normal and vr lenses with a Nikon mount. A beginner as well as a professional will enjoy this camera. It also captures video and audio in stereo. It doesn’t feed the dog, or do the dishes and it’s not Alexa ready,but neither am I. I do want the dog and sometimes, just sometimes wash the dishes. Great camera I really enjoy it.

I bought this camera upgrading from my d5100 (which I have also loved for the past 5 years). I use my cameras almost exclusively for macro photography of bugs, frogs, plants, etc and occasionally switch on my telescopic lens for some larger or harder to reach critters. These pictures were taken under a manual setting with a 100mm Tokina macro lens, and only the first spider picture I posted had any editing or cropping done.I'm writing this after one month of use, having snapped several hundred creepy crawlies and I have nothing but good things to say about it.Moving from a previous iteration Nikon there is basically no learning curve. The interface and options are simple, streamlined, yet very in depth. Simple enough that you can pick it up and use it as a point and shoot, streamlined in that all the menu options are easy to find and alter, and has the same depth that you would find in a pro model. I'm not going to focus on too much technical jargon as I am only a hobbyist myself.On to the good stuff. This camera is light, but doesn't feel cheap. I wouldn't put it through any serious abuse, it's still a precision instrument, but you're not going to feel like you're holding a toy. I'm six foot and it fits comfortably in my hands, with all buttons and dials intuitively placed, but if you have some massive paws it might feel a little small.The screen is large and super sharp. It also swivels to any angle so you can hold the camera above your head or take a picture of yourself and know exactly what you're shooting. It's also touchscreen allowing you to change all your options or pinch zoom on your shots, making it feel almost like a smart phone.Speaking of smart phones, this camera has Bluetooth and wifi capabilities, letting you easily transfer pictures from the camera to your phone or device with the Snapbridge app. You can even use your phone as a remote to take pictures from a distance, or if you want to minimize any shaking that might happen in hand. While Bluetooth will reduce any image to 2mb, you can transfer the full size image through wifi. If you're like me and take a dozen shots of the same subject I would recommend turning off the auto transfer. If you're social media crazy leave it on and have all your pictures sent directly to your phone, ready to post to the world. But be aware this will use up the battery quicker. As far as the battery goes, I've taken hundreds of pictures without having to recharge, though I generally use the viewfinder and mostly use the screen only to review my work.I can't really comment on the video as I mostly use it for stills, but from what I have seen it is quite capable of doing some great videography.The image quality is stellar and rivals what any pro camera was doing a couple years ago. While 24mp might not sound like a lot where some phones or point and shoots claim 32mp, the number of mp is not a tell all. We also have to look at the size of the sensors, which are going to be much larger on this camera, giving you far superior quality images than those stuffed in a smaller device.If you're a more technical photographer or just trying to learn, this camera has a bevy of options to explore. Variable image quality, HDR, a huge ISO range, on board editing, various effects, and near limitless tuning in terms of how you want to shoot.Overall, this is a great camera. On top of that it's a great value. Just make sure you're getting the right kind of lens for what you plan on shooting.

I recently purchased this entry level DSLR to learn more about photography and to improve my skills and below is my full review.Pros:1. Image Quality: The 24.2MP sensor provides sharp and crispier images compared to other entry level models2. Touch screen Interface: The touch screen interface is a nice to have in a camera and toggling through images is seamless and easy. The large touch screen really helps to adjust Aperture and shutter settings and the flip out feature is cool as well.3. SnapBridge: Transfer of files from the Camera to the device is seamless through SnapBridge although I haven’t tried using Snap Bridge for remote capture.Cons:1. Image Stabilization: There is no image stabilization in this camera. There is a possibility for the images to shake a bit here and there. This was a problem for me when I tried to shoot in low light during sunset and sunrise.2. No Autofocus Motor: This camera doesn’t have the autofocus motor in it’s body which means that I need an AF-S lens instead of an AF. I was looking to buy the Nikon 50 mm f/1.8G and there was a $90 difference in price between the AF-S and AF models. I can still use the AF lens and manually focus but I don’t want to shoot fast moving objects using manual focus.Final Verdict:There are so many other features which the D5600 offers and I would say the pros outweigh the cons. I would definitely recommend this camera for people who are looking to purchase their first DSLR. Even though it might be pricier for an entry level model, if you can afford it and then go for it.

This camera is of excellent quality and exceeds my expectations of what I was looking for in a camera.I travel a lot and use my SLR for a variety of shots. Family, Scenery and Products for my home based business.The LCD touch screen makes it simple and quick to get to the menu options. Before I purchased this I actually went down to a store to compare the D5500 with the D7200 and found that picture wise the quality is basically identical however with the D5600 I get nicer shots since it's lighter, has a smaller body so I can hold it steadier. The D5600 is also a lot more user-friendly then the D7200 and is really easy to shoot in manual mode (M).Another thing I really like about this camera is the flip out screen. I take lots of product photography and always need to put my camera at a weird angle to capture the product on just the right angle. In the past I would find myself on ladders and climbing on chairs just to see the LCD screen. With the D5600 I can comfortable hold the camera completely away from me and then flip the screen out and around so I get a perfect view of the item I'm shooting.Overall I'm really pleased with this camera. It has excellent upgraded features, takes quality pictures and isn't big and heavy like the D7200.
