Design
1.Has a flip-out screen
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
Flip-out screens can be useful for tricky shots.
2.weight
We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
3.viewfinder coverage
95%
With 100% coverage, you can compose the image correctly when you capture the photo. With less than full coverage, you may have to crop your photos afterward to get them looking perfect.
4.has an optical viewfinder
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
An optical viewfinder (or OVF) allows the photographer to compose a shot while seeing exactly what the lens will capture. OVFs have no time lag and require no power - as opposed to electronic viewfinders, which can drain battery life. OVFs are also better in low light situations.
5.Has a hot shoe
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
A hot shoe can be used to attach an external flash, as well as light meters, viewfinders, rangefinders and other attachments.
6.screen resolution
1037k dots
A higher screen resolution provides a sharper image, making it easier to review your photos.
Optics
1.sensor size
23.5 x 15.6mm
The larger the sensor the more light the sensor captures yielding in better image quality.
2.focus points
39
The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.
3.megapixels (main camera)
24.2MP
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
4.maximum light sensitivity
25600 ISO
With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.
5.continuous shooting at high resolution
5fps
Fast continuous shooting is useful for catching action shots.
6.has AF tracking
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
With AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots.
Videography
1.video recording (main camera)
1080 x 60fps
The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.
2.has continuous autofocus when recording movies
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
When recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.
3.Has timelapse function
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
A timelapse shows a long passage of time sped up. A series of photographs taken from the same position over a long period is joined together to create a short video. It is great way to capture things like the setting sun, or clouds moving across the sky.
4.has a 24p cinema mode
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
24p is a video format (24 frames per second) traditionally used in cinema. Nowadays, it is used to create film-like motion characteristics.
Audio
1.has a stereo microphone
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
A stereo microphone allows to record audio files or movies in stereo without an external microphone.
2.has a microphone input
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
A microphone port allows connecting external high-end or specialized microphones.
3.number of microphones
2
More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.
4.has a socket for a 3.5 mm audio jack
Nikon D5300 + AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
