Review of Nikon's DSLR camera D5300 evolved

As a Nikon digital single lens reflex cameraBuilt-in Wi-Fi and GPS function for the first timedid"D5300"Was released on November 14th. I bought the first model of this series, D5100, but the D5200 has not been bought. I thought that the D5300 should be evolved considerably and its contents further improved, so I bought it.

Cardboard with Nikon's logo arrived. It is quite big for a camera ... ...


Inside was a D5300 that was protected by cushioning material and was protected.


Included are D5300 18-140 VR lens kit and 8GB SD card, blower, small bag as a gift from Nikon Direct.


When opening the box of the lens kit, in addition to the warranty card, etc., there are three more boxes from inside.


D 5300 body,AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-140 mm f / 3.5 - 5.6 G ED VR, And accessories are in juxtaposition.


The body is an orthodox style as a digital single lens reflex, but because the shoulder part is rounded out, a soft impression considerably small.


Viewed from diagonally above.


To the right of the mode dial, there is a mark indicating Wi-Fi and GPS built-in. Other button arrangements etc are followed from D5100.


Rear side


The monitor can be rotated 180 degrees laterally and further from -90 degrees (upward facing up) to 180 degrees (inside out state). In addition to normal shooting, you can do anything with low angle, high angle, self-shooting using the live view function.


At the bottom is a battery insertion slot and a hole for a tripod. Battery pack can not be added.


The battery to be used is EN - EL 14 a, the capacity is 1230 mAh.


The SD card slot is on the right side of the main unit.


On the left side of the main unit are an external microphone input terminal, a USB / audio video output terminal, an accessory terminal, and an HDMI mini terminal arranged from the top. The cover here is open and strengthens resistance to try to return. To the accessory terminal, connect WR - R 10 or WR - 1 of the wireless remote control controller, remote code MC - DC 2, GP - 1 / GP - 1 A of the GPS unit.


Weighs 491 g without battery.


The lens kit comes with a lens of 18-140 mm 3.5 - 5.6 G. If you have one, it is a standard zoom lens that does not bother you in most scenes.


On the side of the lens, there is a switch to switch on / off the focus switch and camera shake correction.


Front of the lens where the lenses overlap many times.


It weighs 515 grams and is heavier than the body.


So I tried wearing a lens in the body.


Weight increased at a stretch ... ....


Hold with one hand, your fingers are in this position.


When the index finger is placed on the release button, the thumb comes to the top of the mode dial.


Once it is done, it will hold the body completely.



In addition to the lens, I inserted the battery and the SD card, attached the strap, when I measured the weight when actually used it was 1067 g.


The D5100 which is the model two generations ago is 1048 g under the same condition, so it is slightly heavier.


The left is D5300 and the right is D5100.


In the D 5300, the number of microphones for movie shooting has increased, but the others are almost the same. The lens attached to the D5100AF - S DX NIKKOR 18 - 105 mm f / 3.5 - 5.6 G ED VRis.


The big change is the info screen displayed on the monitor. When you select "Graphic Design" with D5100, the state of the aperture was displayed graphically as shown in this way ......


If you select "Graphic Design" in the same way at D 5300, the shutter speed and ISO value will also be displayed with graphics.


The new D5300 is equipped with a Wi-Fi function


When this is set to ON, it is possible to send the photographed image to the smart device via Wi-Fi.


It is possible to transfer to the tablet and show it to everyone because it is possible to transfer immediately after shooting without having to take out trouble to plug in the SD card or use the USB cable.


GPS built-in is also the first as a Nikon digital single lens reflex camera. You can embed the current location information in the photo without attaching the GPS unit externally.


From here it is a picture taken with D5300. For image quality "FINE" • Image size "L (6000 × 4000)", the file size will be approximately 8 MB to 12 MB. The posted images are resized without correction.

I went to the cow horn to have dinner, so I took it to accompany it.


Beef horn, which is the place where the Grand Menu was revised on the 13th, first thick marbled thick tongue salt (980 yen).


By the way, it is clearly stated on the menu that it is molded and made into this shape.


Kuroge Wagyu Beef Tartarubi (1280 yen)


Pork ribs (490 yen, salted). He said he was using an Andean plateau pig.


Juju. When you shoot a charcoal grilled meat, the color of the flame may become purple, but the color of the street that was almost visible was reproduced.


Absolute salt chicken (450 yen).


Well.


New product from September, aged thick cutting sagari (620 yen). Left is salt, right is spicy.


Tightly.


There is a thickness that teeth bites into the meat, meat that has a sense of "eating meat". Recommended for those who want to eat more meaty parts than the fatty part.


I tried taking a movie.

I touched it and received the impression that it is a handy model that dropped the size of Nikon's luxury digital single lens reflex camera series into handy size. Used by professionals and high amateursD4If you become a high-end model such as high-end models such as "M · A · S · P", there are only 4 cases of "M · A · S · P", and if you are not used to, you may suffer from white balance and adjustment of exposure, but "AUTO" of D5300 is pretty good Then, if you set it to AUTO for the time being, it seems that you can take a picture you are looking for in most scenes.

However, although it is suitable for taking a picture by looking through the optical viewfinder, if you use the live view function in 1 frame shooting mode, it takes about 1 second or so after the shutter is released and the next picture can be taken I needed a distance, I felt a bit frustrating. Sequential shooting in continuous shooting mode is possible, so if you want to take a decisive moment using Live View, you may need to use modes differently or acquire the shooting interval.

In addition, the price of the D5300 18-140 VR lens kit is Nikon direct, it is 129,800 yen including tax.
