The editors liked

  • Nikon jpegs
  • Straight from the camera
  • Are always good and this is no exception
  • Even though saturation is a little over done. That is easily corrected in camera settings. RAW image quality is second to none
  • Helped by a decent kit lens. High ISO performa
  • Relatively small size
  • Useful art filters and scene modes
  • Built-in tips
  • Excellent image quality
  • Fantastic ergonomics for beginning and enthusiasts alike
  • Kit lens folds up like some of the smaller lenses appearing on mirrorless interchangeables
  • Offers Full HD video capture
  • High pixel count
  • No optical lowpass filter
  • Excellent Guide Mode
  • Easy to use

The editors didn't like

  • While the price is attractive
  • Undercutting some compacts
  • It is up against stiff competition from mirrorless system cameras which we think offer better value for the money
  • Focusing can be slow
  • Screen has no hinge
  • Supports Nikon's wireless but requires the adaptor to work
  • So no WiFi built directly in (sad face)
  • No USB charging
  • As it still requires a separate battery charger
  • Fixed LCD
  • Screen not touchsensitive
  • Few direct controls

  • Small for a DSL, Retracting lens makes camera compac, Shar, clear images with accurate colo, Video has smooth movemen, Great price
  • No tilting LCD scree, Limited shooting control, such as noise reduction option, More noise (graininess) than many rivals capture in low-light stills and video
  • The Nikon D3300 is an excellent entry-level camera for aspiring photographers, delivering a good feature set and high-quality images. If you are considering an upgrade from a point-and-shoot, the Nikon D3300 is one heck of a DSLR for newbies. I...

  • Rear command dial can't be used with 'info' menu change settings more quickly, Useful settings like Auto ISO on/off and Active D-Lighting buried in camera menu, Can't change aperture while live view is engaged, Auto mode continues to use very slow shutter
  • The Nikon D3300 is an entry-level DSLR with an impressive spec list, including a 24 megapixel sensor and 1080/60p HD video recording. It provides the right level of controls for a beginner, offers a number of in-camera retouch options, and boasts excellen...
