FIRST THE ORDER It came a day early and with free shipping. All items Purchased separately came in the same box, FotoTech ML-3 wireless shutter release (sold by Fotot&Tech), Nikon DK-5 Eyepiece Cap for Nikon D200, D70S and D50 Digital SLR Cameras and SanDisk Extreme 32GB UHS-I/U3 SDHC Memory Card (both Sold by: Amazon.com LLC) ADVICE Canon/Nikon/Pentax? I chose the D5500 for the touch screen and the Nikkor DX 18-140mm VR lens. Very happy with it. What do you want in your first DSLR? Do you use Photoshop? Lightroom? I Have both Windows 7 and OS Mavericks and use Photoshop on both, CS 5.5 (Mac Mini mid 2011) and CS 6 (Windows laptop). I do not use any camera software to copy photos to the computers. I take the images straight off the SD card. NOTE: the D5500 NEF RAW files works excellent with the the Camera Raw update for CS 6. It will not work with CS 5 or CS 5.5 extended alone, go to the Adobe website and download a DNG converter and it will convert NEF to DNG easily. It works separately from Photoshop but it is just and extra step. TAKE YOUR TIME and learn about your camera before you buy it. THE CAMERA I am a small guy with stubby fingers standing about 5' 4" or so. The Canon Rebel T5 was too deep for my hands and The Nikon D3300 fit my hand better but I hated the controls. (The Touchscreen simplifies this. A BIG plus.) The D5500 is slightly thinner and not as deep and fits my hand perfectly. Handling and using the controls is very important. The Pentax was not found in local stores. Too bad. So I had to research everything online, watched videos and read as many honest unbiased reviews about the kit lenses that I was considering. PHOTOS While i am still learning, my brain stifles when I need to think about Shutter Speed, Aperture and ISO. A DSLR will help with this, for Nikon, the Scene selections will help me choose. If you use editing software for RAW files, then by all means set the D5500 camera to take RAW and JPEG photos and learn by the camera's suggestions. Not every manual shot will turn out good, but accept that it may be you not the camera. Nikon wants you to look good, so let the camera help you. Then go manual with this camera and can take pro looking shots using what you have learned. The more you shoot, the better you will become. The effects however are something I will hardly ever use, but don't confuse that with the Scene selection in your research. The Scenes will help you take good pics. WHAT I HAVE NOT USED YET The camera has some retouching abilities that I have not used yet. I have not used video either but will, just not yet. I do not however do a lot of sport /kid videos, I usually set on manual focus so that said if you seriously want major camcorder usage, you may want to think about any Canon with the STM Lenses, just research,and get to know it before you buy any DSLR camera.. Here are a few pics taken in both NEF (Nikon's RAW file) and JPEG Large/fine quality with the DX 18-140mm VR lens kit. You do not need Phtotshop to view/edit them but it is what I use. Touched up with Adobe Camera Raw in both Photoshop CS 5.5 using the DNG converter and in CS 6 was any noise (that film grain look caused by higher ISO), vignetting (dark corners/edges) and aberration (ugly color outlines from high contrast situations)--hopefully i explained that right. These 3 issues are normal and from what i gather all kit lenses will have some of this, though minimal on this kit lens. I used both Manual and Scene Selections for sunsets and landscape both in Live View with touch screen focus and the Eyepiece with finger shutter release The battery was only 1/3 down after 300+ shots using a SanDisk Extreme 32GB UHS-I/U3 SDHC Memory Card and a FotoTech ML-L3 Wireless Shutter Remote. The Live View touch screen was used frequently but not constantly, and no doubt the video mode will use the battery up faster but it has not been tested yet. A sensor by the Eyepiece will turn off Live View to save battery use. Nice. NOTE ABOUT PHOTOS (I asked my wife's permission to post the pic of her.) The Dynamic Range is good enough to shoot in overcast conditions. Most of these images are hand held shots. I used a tripod for the sunsets and dry dock. ... show more

This is the camera I've been looking for. My interest in photography goes way back, but it wasn't until I got my first iPhone (the 4S) that I was able to start exploring. From there, I bought a Fuji HS30EXR, which was very highly recommended, and had awful image quality; next, I purchased a Sony NEX-6, which was light-years ahead of the Fuji, but I always felt like something was missing. So I bought the Sony a6000 and suffered immediate buyer's remorse (though I eventually bought its little brother, the RX100 m2, which is my much-loved coat-pocket camera). I was always looking for that missing something. And not being trained at all in photography, never having taken any classes, and having to learn everything on my own from books and websites, I could never put my finger on what that something was. Until I discovered the D5500. The D5500 takes great pictures. It's also harder to use than the a6000. But it feels like a real camera. It's comfortable in my (somewhat large) hands. Compared to the CSC Sony cameras I've owned, it feels more like a tool than a toy. As I say, it's more challenging to use (no Focus Peaking!), and as a result, I'm more satisfied when I take a decent exposure. And it is sharp, in part because modern Nikons lack anti-aliasing filters. An Anti-Aliasing Filter serves to soften your images to prevent moiré- a sort of banding that occurs in high-contrast patterns (think a striped dress) when recorded by a digital sensor. (You may have seen these patterns on an old tube t.v. screen when you were a kid, too.) In my opinion, the benefit of having 24mp is not that you necessarily get a "better" image- you get more room to crop. I like to take pictures of the moon, and it's nice to be able to zoom in and inspect the surface. The Sony's were way too soft when zoomed in at 50%, let alone 100%. This may not be the case for the full-frame Sony cameras, but the APS-C models leave a lot to be desired. As far as those cameras are concerned, 24mp is about 16mp wasted. The D5500 feels great in hand, nice and light, but still substantial, with a good amount of grip, and it truly is optimized to help amatuers like me get the shot they want. It's fast (though not as quick in burst mode as the a6000), and the touchscreen is a treat coming from Sony (menus within menus within menus within menus...), making it super easy to change aperture, ISO, shutter speed, etc. The lens selection is fantastic, whether you go Nikon or third-party (I've already added the AF-S 35mm and the 55-200mm VRII to my bag), although there is an obvious emphasis on pro gear. The D5500 is the camera for me. Every single box (image quality, feel, looks) is neatly checked. I find myself spending less time in Lightroom and more time with a camera in my hands, and I find that leaving things like ISO up to the camera (unthinkable on Sony's APS-C cameras, which render unusable images after ISO 6400 or so) not only renders great images, but makes it that much easier (and enjoyable) for me to bungle my way through this silly, expensive hobby of mine. I would recommend this camera to everyone who wants to go beyond smartphones and point-and-shoots. Side note- I chose the D5500 over the D7200 for several reasons that you may or may not agree with, but here they are: 1. The D5500 and the D7200 have the same sensor. IQ should be the same. 2. The D7200 is $400 more. Although I love my D5500, I will probably not be as fond of it in three or four years. But the lenses could conceivably last for decades with proper care. As better photographers than me have said, buy only as much camera as you need, and spend the rest on lenses. 3. Simpler exterior. I'm not ready for all the buttons and dials yet. Stepping up to the D7000 series will be next, but that's several years from now. I felt it was better to become accustomed to the DSLR form factor before dropping $1100 on the camera body alone. As far as the Nikon vs. Canon debate is concerned, I'm uninterested. I chose the D5500 over the comparable Canons for a couple of reasons. 1. Nikon bodies seem to cost less than their Canon counterparts, but are rated more highly; the Canon t6s is more expensive and does not perform as well. Ditto the 70d. 2. Nikon has legacy lens support unmatched by Canon. Will I ever take advantage of it? Who knows, but I like the idea. 3. Canon DSLR's don't render color as well, in my opinion, Easy fix, I know- but still. That being said, I'm certain that a skilled photographer could get great pictures from just about anything, so don't get yourself bogged down in fruitless Nikon vs. Canon, DSLR vs. Mirrorless/M43, Android vs. Apple type debates. Just take pictures! ... show more
