I bought this camera on April 4th 2014. nn• I recommend the Nikon D3300 to everyone who asks what camera to buy for great photos of family, friends, sports, concerts, theater and action.nn• Got kids and want great action, low-light and long-distance photos? The D3300 is the camera to get. Paying more won't get you much more other than a lot more weight to have to carry around.nn• The built-in flash is excellent. You probably don't need a separate flash unless you're trying to shoot action or kids which demand a fast recycle time.nn• The included 18-55mm VR II is probably all you need for everything. If you're new to photography, the strongest advice I can give you from 45 years of experience is that it's far more important to learn how to use what you've got, instead of confusing the issue by buying more lenses, as you're starting out.nn• Personally, I usually use the 35mm f/1.8 DX for everything and leave the 18-55mm VR at home.nn• The D3300's LCD is big, bright, sharp and color-accurate. You couldn't really put a bigger or better screen on a camera this small.nn• Like most DSLRs, the battery lasts forever. The biggest worry you should have is being lulled into forgetting to bring your charger on a long trip.nn• New in the D3300, a swept panorama mode lets us hand-hold and swipe the D3300 in any of four directions to make a 180º panorama.nn• Color rendition is superb; the D3300 uses all the same picture controls, with matching results, to all the other current Nikon cameras.nnnPROS: Small for a DSLR; Retracting lens makes camera compact; Sharp, clear images with accurate color; Video has smooth movement; Great pricennCONS: No tilting LCD screen; Limited shooting controls.nnVERDICT : The Nikon D3300 is an excellent entry-level camera for aspiring photographers, delivering a good feature set and high-quality images.
Have been using this product for a couple of months now. Below is a quick review-nnOverall-nPros- Best DSLR for entry level. Do not go anywhere else for now.nCon- The only con I see is the lack of inbuilt auto focus which makes the lenses expensive. But that isn’t so much.nn1- Flipkart DeliverynExcellent delivery, best packaging, all as described, no complains. Make sure you buy from WS Retail Seller only.nn2) Product Reviewn- Build Quality- Best build quality amongst entry level DSLR's. It has a premium feel to it unlike canon 1100 etc which seems a bit plasticky. The products grips well in the hand and the feel is rigid.nn- Kit Lens Review- The kit lens is great to start of with. Especially the new 18-55 kit lens which is smaller as compared to the old lens and has a lock mechanism which makes the lens easier to carry and avoids accidental clicks. For pros, this lens is just a beginners lens and there is little it can offer in terms of photography. But 3300's inbuilt functionality is a boon to try various options with this lens. (Do not expect bokeh effects though). The autofocus and VR make it literally like a digicam on auto mode. For beginners try using the inbuilt guide. One important thing to note is that the DSLR does not have an inbuilt auto focus, and the autofocus capability rests with the Lens you have on it. Do not buy lenses without Autofocus Motor, since they just act like a binocular with no functionality.nn- Functionality Review- This is by far the best entry level DSLR, both if you intend to learn or want to buy a DSLR for the sake of it. One of the best feature if the Effects Mode, where you can try multiple options like Vivid, Pop, etc. They give the images instagramy touch. It is a great feature for those buying it for the sake of buying a DSLR. The next thing is the guide mode- which can come handy for those wanting to learn. Other than that it offers normal DSLR functionality which is good to explore. Remember this is a DX Lens and not a FX one, which necessarily means that this is not a full frame lens. It does not impact your photography as far as your skill sets are concerned, it just does not capture the full frame that you would expect to capture as opposed to a full frame lens(FX). One thing to note is that always buy the DX lenses with this since the FX lens might have performance issues.nn3) Add On’s to considern- Nikon DX 55-200 VR Lens- This is a good telephoto zoom lens which will offer you decent zoom capability. People do debate on 55-300, but trust me, efficient photography is not about zoom. Zoom comes handy when you are into wildlife photography etc, but if you plan to reach that point, the best option is 70-300 VR lens by Nikon. Else, this one will suffice all your needs.n- Nikon 35mm 1.8g Prime- This is the best prime lens to start with. No VR/No Zoom but offers the best aperture range. This is the best entry lens for low light photography which is a result of low aperture value. Additionally this lens assists best with ‘bokeh’ effect and is brilliant when it comes to crisp photography. The debate between 50mm and 35mm prime is also endless, but remember 50mm reduces the scope of coverage of the background, whereas 35mm offers best coverage of the background. Additionally, 35mm results in 50mm equivalent shots, and 50mm results in approx. 80mm shots. So go for 35mm to start with unless you are only into portrait photography. For the best multipurpose use, go for 35. This lens also has A/M and M mode which assists in switching between.nn- Tripod- Any tripod, but basically for beginners I recommend not to use one. The more you use the DSLR with your hands, the more stability you get. It is similar to Pistol shooting where the stability of the hand matters the most.
Initially i was bit confused between D5300 & D3300 but after doing some intensive research i decided to buy D3300.nnnThe product got delivered within 24 Hrs. Thanks to Flipkart...!!!nnThis camera shoots very high quality stills & records 60 fps 1080p videos.nnWith the price difference of 15k between D5300 and D3300, i would suggest people to go for D3300 and add some beautiful lens to your kit eg: A must have 35mm Nikkor Lens 55 -200mm VR Nikkor Lens).nnWill share more in detail after few weeks of usage.nnFor now i am very satisfied with the product & the service provided by the Flipkart.
First of all what i got in the box..? In the box, i got Nikon D3300 camera+AF-P 18-55mm VR + AF-P DX NIKKOR 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G ED VR Kit Lenses+Camera Bag+Toshiba 16GB FlashAir Wi-fi (Class 10) SD card. Camera : It is one of best entry level DSLR with great feature like a 24 MP CMOS sensor, Full HD 60 fps video recoding capability, and 5fps shooting speed with latest EXPEED 4 image-processing engine which will produce awesome image and videos even in low light. Lens :Both the lenses AF-P 18-55mm VR and AF-P DX NIKKOR 70-300mm is good lens over all in image quality and in videos also. I most like about these new lenses the focusing speed is very fast and while focusing it will not create sound means it is very quite and smooth. but if want more better image quality in from cheap lens buy 35/50 mm f/1.8 lense which very good for portraits and in dim lighting condition. Camera Bag : It is nice for keeping body with these two lenses. Memory card : I got Toshiba 16GB FlashAir Wi-fi (Class 10) SD card which is very useful for the camera because, this camera doesn't have WiFi in-built, so it allow u to transfer the photos using WiFi to mobile and laptop. but some connection issues are their..! Warranty : The warranty card are inside the box for camera body and lenses. Packaging :I found out packing is good and i got in four days. Conclusion : It is a great deal because u r getting good camera+ lenses specially 70-300mm AF-P lense is great and if u want to buy this lens alone it will surely cost more 15k which is costly. so all people who are new to dslr world surely buy this product good luck...!
Canons have good color reproduction and the photos look really good on the camera screen but when zoomed they are not as sharp as Nikons and Canons produce more noise compared to Nikon especially when comparing 3300 and 600d in the Low light. Canon is more famous because of it is easy to use as well as good marketing programs such as Loyalty Programs which makes you buy Canon again and suggest your friends to buy canon, more like Network Marketing but Nikons are more sharp especially when cropped at 100% Nikon are more sharp and have Less noise. Other reason why Canon is more famous because the people who buy a DSLR Camera are 80% enthusiasts and 20% or less professionals. A non proffestional want an easy to use Camera while Proffessionals are more concerned about picture quality. These 80% can become proffessional at some point they may choose their previous brand . so there are more Canons than Nikon. Comparing D3300 and 600d , D3300 is a new camera, Faster autofocus with Expeed 4, more megapixels 24MPX vs 18MPX , 5fps vs 3.7fps , good performance in low light- Low noise at 1385 ISO vs 793 ISO and 60fps vs 30fps D3300 is a clear winner. nIf you still have doubts, goto Dxomark.com and get the scientific test results and nSearch in google that "Nikon d3300 flickr" goto group pool open the images at 6000x4000 resolution and compare them with 600d by doing the same.
research. compare. buy.
