Pros: quality-price, weight, photo quality, articulated display

Cons: screen overheats a lot when you are in live view, battery that lasts very little, GPS that works sometimes

Opinion: I bought this camera more or less czech and I have to say that I did well to buy it apart for some flaws. I have to say that it makes great photos even in automatic mode, although the best thing to do is shoot in manual mode. The autofocus by day is very fast but in the evening it is a little too slow and sometimes, always in the evening, it does not recognize the faces. The battery is one of its weak points because after about 300-400 clicks it runs out, so it's better to buy another replacement battery or battery grip and with that you can do even 800 shots without problems. The display has a great resolution is comfortable because it is also articulated, although you have to be careful when it is open because it is very fragile. if you use it in live view mode, especially when making videos, after just 5 minutes the screen starts to overheat. I bought this camera with in matched the 18-55 mm. The lens is the worst there can be, of shoddy materials because after 5 months it has already broken and I changed it with a Sigma C 17-70 mm F/2.8-4 and you can not even issue compared to what they give you in combination. In general the machine is very versatile great for those who are novice, bad for those who are a semi-professional. If you buy it know that you need some extra accessories to make it perfect.

Pros: Sensor, ergonomics, weight, quality of files even at high ISO, robustness, GPS integrated, wifi

Cons: Few configurable buttons (one!), Menu a bit 'cumbersome, live view slow, pentaspecchio (no pentaprism), no engine af in the car

Opinion: Taken second-hand (practically unused) to replace a Fuji xt-10.I wanted to regret the jpg ready to use Fuji and instead, despite the sensor a bit 'old, I had to change his mind: it's a still great car capable of producing high quality photos with a dynamic range of absolutely high level already with the 18-55 and with very little noise up to 6400 iso.Ergonomia perfect for me since it offers an excellent grip combined with a low weight and size equal to that of a mirrorless without having the defects (the usual: small body, small keys and unbalance between the camera body and mounted lenses). Even after hours that you carry around not tired.The AF is very good, fast and accurate in 99% of the cases and 39 points are more than good though obviously the sports photo is not his bread also because of the limited 5fps burst. The adjustable screen is very comfortable, robust and helps not just for the most difficult shots while the viewfinder, despite not is a pentaprism (unfortunately% 29 is not too dark and I definitely prefer it to an evf (at least to that of Fuji that in itself was not bad at all). With this 5300 frankly I do not see the advantage of using a mirrorless if not to play with vintage lenses, which I did and I find it fun but that leaves a little 'time that finds. I do not think I'll get tired so soon because for my needs as a simple enthusiast it offers everything you need and even more with very high level performances. if I had to change it I would orient myself on a seire 7xxxx only for the pentaprism and the af in the car to be able to use any Nikon lens: for the perfect rest!

Pros: Lightness, versatility, numerous optics, easy to use

Cons: Slow GPS in the acquisition, slow live view, read subexpositions

Opinion: I had this camera for r years subjecting to all sorts of use .. I have to say that my overall impression is that it is a very good camera, even for the countless features and features it has. Unfortunately, the GPS is one of its sore notes: in addition to the inconvenience of having to download from the nikon site, every 15 days, a file updating the position of the satellites - otherwise it does not hook them - the positioning is very slow if you have the habit of turn off the camera after each picture. On average, every 500 travel photos taken, I found no more than 20% georeferenced .. Also the shot in live view is very slow and strongly discouraged if you have to give a sequence of photos .. For the rest nothing to complain if not perhaps a general under-exposure in scenes in the shade or with overcast skies. Excellent battery life ..

Pros: Wide variety of goals, lightweight, adjustable screen, video at 60fps fullhd

Cons: It tends to overheat quickly under the sun

Opinion: Very light and versatile good when you have to shoot for several consecutive hours, has nothing to envy the big sisters in terms of performance, only sore point autofocus goes a bit slower than the semi-professional equipment but speak just tenths of a second, with latest firmware have placed many problems that plagued this machine as the live view so slow. What about beautiful car.

Pros: Lightweight, adjustable screen, sensor

Cons: Focusing, Live View,

Opinion: Weighs nothing can carry it always around, the expeed4 has her why and swiveling monitor is comfortable (although very nn) the sensor used is like that of 7100 (maybe better) .rnPOI BUT DO THE sorrowful notes, rnho thought about doing qlk snap between the birds, and I noticed that the focus especially if the light fades mmmm does not go benissimo.Allora I said, established that the focus on longish distances nn goes, we use the live View we focus and then snap ... Auguriiiiiii ... if you are using the live view, and go to zoom into the monitor goes to scatti.Pertanto for domestic use, is it ok if we talk about landscapes or nature pay attention.
