## Overview

The Nikon D5500 is a compact, lightweight DX-format DSLR featuring a 24.2MP CMOS sensor without an optical low-pass filter for superior image sharpness. It offers a versatile 3.2-inch vari-angle touchscreen LCD, a 39-point autofocus system, and built-in Wi-Fi for easy sharing and remote control.

## Description

From fast movement to challenging low-light situations, and from big prints to movies, the D5500 is perfect for creative individuals looking to take their photography to the next level. The camera's large 24.2 megapixel DX-format image sensor and an ISO range of 100-25,600 ensure you'll capture crisp, clean, images even in low light conditions. Combined with the power of a compatible NIKKOR lens, you get images that explode with clarity. Even when printed large or shown on a big screen, your photos and movies will be crystal-clear reflections of the way you see the world.Significantly lighter and much slimmer than its predecessor, the D5500 boasts a monocoque structure, weighting in at just 420g (without battery and memory card) and a deep grip for improved handling.Leave image-blur behind and enjoy the freedom to create vibrant, richly detailed images that command attention. When it comes to getting the shot you want, the D5500's advanced performance ensures results that never fail to impress. Specifically designed without an optical low-pass filter (OLPF), the camera's image sensor makes the most of its 24.2-megapixel resolution to render images with incredibly crisp detail. An ISO range of 100-25,600 allows you to shoot brilliant photos and movies even when the light is scarce. Nikon's 39-point autofocus system with nine cross-type sensors in the centre is always on target no matter where your subject is in the frame; and continuous shooting speeds of up to 5 frames-per-second mean fleeting gestures or facial expressions can be snapped at exactly the right moment, even when the action is fast. With Nikon's EXPEED 4 image processor enabling high-speed operation, advanced noise reduction, and smooth movie recording, you're free to capture memorable moments with confidence.Touchscreen control, vari-angle artistry, and built Wi-Fi: the D5500 makes it easy to get creative with your photography. Simply flip, tilt, or rotate the large vari-angle monitor to compose shots that reflect your view on the world, then tap the responsive touchscreen to focus and shoot, or adjust settings such as aperture, ISO and shutter speed. Swipe to scroll through images, or pinch-to-zoom in or out during playback. Find the shots you love, then share them using the built-in Wi-Fi function. You can even take advantage of the camera's touch control options when shooting through the viewfinder, thanks to the "Touch Fn" function that lets you quickly adjust key setting with a finger swipe. Up to eight settings can be assigned to the "Touch Fn" function, including focus points, AF area modes, aperture, and ISO sensitivity. The Wi-Fi function also makes it possible to control the camera remotely using the connected smart device: considering the vari-angle monitor and the quality of the images, your selfies will be stunning self-portraits.When the occasion calls for video, the D-Movie function records smooth, finely detailed Full HD video clips at frame rates up to 50p/60p.

Review: Ultra sharp detailed images that far surpass its price tag - Unlike the last reviewer I bought this camera solely for photography and also as a backup camera while my Nikon D800 goes in for a service and sensor cleaning. I never expected it to come close to my D800, but then it is a quarter of the price, however, image quality is fantastic for this price band, there is a noticeable improvement in image sharpness ( especially landscape shots and higher ISO photos ) over the D5300 that my wife currently has, and personally I don't think there's anything better image wise for under £700 at the time of writing this. Anyone that has had Nikon DSLRs will feel at home straight away with the controls, and the addition of the touch screen ( which works really well ) has made accessing certain features easier still. My only gripe, and it is a small one that wouldn't make me lower my five star review, is that the camera feels too light, but then I'm used to lugging around something that is at least twice as heavy. I'll be posting some photos on Flickr shortly, so if you're interested and want to have a look at the results go to my gallery on there and have a nosey https://www.flickr.com/photos/gpearsonimages/
Review: Very Happy. But. - The camera is everything I expected. However the instruction manual is in French. I don't speak French. If you can, please send me an English language instruction book please.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you tell me if this is a grey import or a model just for the uk market. thanks.**
A: The one I got was a genuine European model ( as are all the non grey imports )  and as such is covered by the full Nikon UK guarantee.

**Q: I already have this camera but i just wondered if i can use a extreme pro sd card?**
A: I have an extreme sd card but I don't see why the extreme pro wouldn't work. It's just super fast so it becomes "pro" level.

**Q: Can you clarify exactly what items are included with purchase (body, lens, battery, sd card, etc...)? Thank you.**
A: When I purchased mine, the kit included body, 18-55mm lens, battery, battery charger and lens and body caps; strap, usb and video cable, and instructions but no SD card. And, although it wasn't what you asked, I've been delighted with it.

**Q: What is the zoom range**
A: 3 x zoom

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love it !
*by G***H on 27 December 2015*

I have upgraded from the D5100 that was an excellent camera, but I wanted to go up a level and the D5500 takes me there, I have not been disappointed with it, I can use all my original lenses and will give an update after a few more sessions with the particular projects I am going to cover with this camera, but so far I am impressed.
