Nikon - D5600 DSLR Camera with AF-P DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR Lens - Black

We purchased this camera as an upgrade to our extremely old D80. The first thing I noticed is how light the camera was compared to our old one. It's also a bit smaller. Not exactly pocket size, but not a burden to carry around. The settings are easy to understand, and you can see the settings on the LDC screen. Speaking of the LCD screen, it's nice feature is being able to flip out, around and upside down. Basically can be at any angle (to allow you to take pictures behind that giant of a man standing in front of you). But the best feature has to be the Snapbridge. This allows you to link your phone to the camera via bluetooth. As you take that perfect picture with your camera, it'll sync up with your phone moments later. You can then immediately post that perfect picture on your favorite social media. My only complaint is that snapbridge is a bit finicky. It's saying it won't connect, then moments later it's connected. Can't figure out when or why. Otherwise, it's a great camera that takes incredible pictures. Oh, and just to give my background-i'm an extreme novice when it comes to taking pictures. I really don't know the difference between an ISO/Aperture or shutter. But when I use the camera settings based on day/night/auto the pictures look great.

I waited till i was able to have enough hours of use before reviewing. Nikon's camera is by far more than enough for what I need. I have a newborn and bought it to capture all his life's milestones. I have to say it has blown away all my expectations. Easy to use menu buttons, swivel screen to take hard to reach shots ( think sporting events that your kid does) and great picture quality is all i ever needed from this item. I firmly recommend if you are looking for a camera to consider this product. The learning curve is small as you can use it as a point and shoot or if you want to become more of a do it your self photography, you can. The extra lens is really a no brainer so this package deal is pretty sweet

This is a fantastic beginner camera. The camera is easy to operate once you have messed around with it for a bit. I went to a website on teaching photography and they laid out everything you needed to know and what to control on you camera. It takes great pictures and it is a fun camera to use. The flip screen can be helpful and it can also get in the way. On one hand it would be nice to be able to see what you are taking pictures of immediately after, but on the other keeping the screen open all the time just doesn't feel right. The one really nice thing about it is you can angle the screen out of the sun without having to move the whole camera. I also highly recommend picking up a 55mm-200mm lens as this will be much more practical to use than the 18mm-50mm lens.

I'm hardly a professional, but this camera has options that are perfect for my photography needs and options for someone more advanced than myself. The screen and built in wifi are amazing features. I love taking a photo and it's instantly on my phone after setting that up in the app. There are some really cool effect and scene options to make photos interesting. The coolest part is many of my accessories from my older Nikon DSLR swap directly to this camera, so I didn't have to buy a new flash and a couple other things. Really happy with it!

This is my first DSLR. I've used Sony cameras for years {point and shoot as well as the a3000 mirrorless} and learning my way around Nikon hasn't been a problem. This has tons of features to take you form a beginner to an advanced shooter. The image quality is surprisingly great. Even with the included kit lens. I would recommend getting better glass as soon as you can. The 50mm prime I have really brings more life to the photos. The articulating touch screen is a really great feature to have. It's easy to see in direct sunlight. I'd recommend this camera over a 3000 series any day.

Nikon 5600 with 18-55 and 18-140 mm lense kit. SnapBridge stinks. Spent hours with no avail. Purchased 2 cameras in a row. Same 5600 with kit. Ended up with Sony a6000 mirrorless. I'm better satisfied. It has 11 frames per second. Takes great pics. You can also by adaptors and use vintage lenses for cheap. A6000 has great (play memories) wifi app for uploading stills. Not a problem. Best Buy sales rep. Says SnapBridge works for 1out of 10 people.

Ergonomics are excellent due to a large grip. For an APSC sensor the camera is very light--only 15 oz.-- and easy to carry. I like the large LCD screen--3.2 inch is noticeably larger than a 3.--and the full touch screen capability adds greatly to ease of use. My first shots were with the standard kit zoom, which took very pleasing photos in doors and out, in spite of the oft heard criticism of this lens. The absence of excessive buttons and dials on the camera body contribute to its appeal.

Camera has taken excellent pictures. Night sky pictures were easy to take. Leaves of trees in the dark came out green with star fields behind, without even using the longest exposure settings. Getting remote photography to work with my phone took quite some time to get working, and is still a bit flaky. So many capabilities, it takes quite some time to understand and use. Camera has significantly higher resolution than any reasonably priced lens. Point spread function of most are more than a few pixels.
