I found that the images were underexposed by about 1/3 EV, which could be corrected in P mode, but Auto mode was effectively unusable because of this. There were multiple minor issues I had with the camera, most of which I could live with. I have to admit that having gotten used to very compact point and shoots, I was a bit overwhelmed by the size and weight of the camera with such a large proboscis of a lens. I bought it because the reviews were universally favourable. I bought one of these with the 18-140mm lens, camera bag, and remote in a package that cost not much more than the lens itself would have cost.

I have to concur with NewsView's comments. It's slightly pricier, but does the feature set justify the tag? Or would your entry-level dollars be better spent elsewhere? For that premium, you get one of the highest resolution APS-C sensors on the market, a very good 1080/60p video spec, and exceptional battery life among other things. It's about $100 US more than a comparable Canon kit, and costs well over twice as much as the (very aggresively priced) Sony a3000. Nikon's DSLRs aren't by any means the cheapest in their respective classes, and that's true of the D3300. Read more about it in our review of the Nikon D3200.

The adapter dangles from the camera's AV port, making it possible to wirelessly transfer images to an Android or iOS device. Without the D5300's built-in Wi-Fi, D3300 owners will need to add Nikon's WU-1a mobile adapter for connectivity features. In the UK there's also a ВЈ499.99 body-only option, not offered in the US. The Nikon D3300 is available in black, grey and red variants, kitted in the US and UK with a collapsible 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 VR II lens with list prices of $649.95 and ВЈ599.99, respectively. Elsewhere in the category the Pentax K-500 offers a 100% coverage optical viewfinder and 6 fps burst shooting, while the Fujifilm X-A1 offers twin command dials and built-in Wi-Fi. Though a little long in the tooth, the Panasonic Lumix GF6 offers a tilting touch screen, and the Olympus E-PM2 provides a fixed touch screen (and is a steal price-wise compared to the rest of the class). So, although the D3300's specs are very impressive - especially in terms of battery life - it also has to hold its own against the smaller mirrorless cameras that match it for image quality and offer a more compact-camera-like live view shooting experience.

However, the days when an entry-level Nikon only really had to worry about its latest rival from Canon have gone. Aside from the lack of Wi-Fi, there's not much to complain about here and we don't feel that there's anything that this camera is seriously lacking feature-wise. The comparison paints a picture of a nicely specified entry-level model with excellent battery life, a new processor and a whole lot of resolution. Outside of this, Wi-Fi and a vari-angle screen are the only other clear hardware advantages to the D5300 over the entry-level model. The D3300 sits at the very bottom with an 11-point system and a single cross-type sensor at the middle - nothing that would tempt a sports photographer, but perfectly capable for its class. Moving up the chain of Nikon's crop-frame DSLR line AF systems get increasingly sophisticated.

By any measure, the D3300 is well above its peers in terms of battery capacity. The D5300's lower claimed battery life reflects a calculation for use of the camera's built-in Wi-Fi and GPS. It should be noted that the D3300 appears to give better battery performance than the D5300, but actually they use the same EN-EL14a battery. The table below illustrates the differences between this model, its predecessor, and the step-up model.

This model gets an upgrade to 1080/60p video recording, an extra frame per second in burst mode, and a higher ISO range up to 12800 (25600 with expansion). The D3300's Expeed 4 branded processor is responsible for many of its gains over the previous model, the D3200. Opting for the D3300 rather than the D5300 means living with a fixed 3.0-inch LCD, rather than one that's fully articulated, and no built-in Wi-Fi. Don't be fooled by their class bearing though, both cameras use a powerful 24MP APS-C sensor. The D3300 sits at the bottom of Nikon's entry-level series, positioned as the friendliest of beginner-friendly DSLRs, just below the D5300. It may not shoot 4K video or offer a curved LCD (those shows are all about the tech trends) but it does represent the next generation of Nikon's very popular entry-level DSLR line, and that in itself is noteworthy. One of the biggest camera announcements at 2014's Consumer Electronics Show may well have been the little Nikon D3300 and its collapsible 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 VR II lens.
