  1. Nikon D5300 Announced

    If you enjoy shooting videos, you'll he happy to hear that the D5300 has a new 60p framerate mode for Full-HD videos; the D5200 only supported 60i. The D5300 is quite a compelling HDSLR when you consider its framerate capabilities alongside advanced movie recording features, a built-in stereo microphone, and support for external microphones. This high framerate is a first for a Nikon DSLR, as even the D7100 only supports 1080/60i recording.

    Finally, in addition to a cosmetic facelift, the D5300 has seen some small ergonomic improvements, such as more space for your thumb on the back of the camera. It should also be easier to release the rear LCD on the D5300. The funamental button layout nevertheless remains unchanged.

    Current D3000 series or D5100 users may wish to consider upgrading to the D5300 for its improved image quality and feature set. It's great to see that Nikon finally has a "connected" DSLR, and we're sure that built-in Wi-Fi will soon become standard on all serious DSLRs. It would be very convenient to finally do away with the wireless adapters and external GPS units that pro DSLRs currently require!

    The D5300 body is already available for pre-order for $799.95, the same price as the D5200 pre-rebate. The camera will also be available in a bundle with the recently-announced 18-140mm VR kit lens for $1399.95. It is expected to start shipping on November 14th in traditional black, red, and gray finishes.
