Details
D5500 is very sophisticated DSLR camera from well-known camera manufacturer Nikon. The body of the camera is slightly smaller and lighter than its predecessor, incorporating durable profile with Dust Reduction System to protect camera from harsh environments. It sports a large 3.2-inch 1037k-dot vari-angle touchscreen LCD monitor. A bright pentamirror optical viewfinder is also integrated into the design of camera which enables precise eye-level viewing and real-time monitoring of subjects.
As far as internal hardware is concerned this camera comes equipped with a 24.2 megapixel sensor and an EXPEED 4 image processor, this stunning combination of sensor and processor provide high-resolution images and Full HD 1080p video with low-light sensitivity up to ISO 25600 and up to 5 fps. The D5500 offers a 39-point autofocus system with nine cross-type sensors and a 2016-pixel RGB sensor for precise exposure metering in a wide variety of lighting conditions. The optical low-pass filter is omitted from the sensor, allowing for additional sharpness in both photos and videos. Along with its imaging assets the Full HD videos can also be shot at multiple frame rates up to 60 fps with full-time continuous auto focusing capabilities. Moreover a built-in Wi-Fi allows advanced image sharing capabilities, the remote viewing and control over the shutter release is possible from a distance when paired with an Android or iOS mobile device.
Included with the D5500 camera body a AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm VR II lens. A Super Integrated Coated lens reduces the flare and ghosting to optimize image clarity, contrast, and color neutrality and a rounded seven-blade diaphragm works to create a pleasing out-of-focus quality in shallow depth of field images. The 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II lens provides a standard zoom and 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 27-82.5mm. This lens incorporates a robust VR image stabilization system, which helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to four shutter speed steps to benefit working in low-light conditions.
Other notable features of Nikon D5500 are Picture Control modes, Scene Modes, Special Effects modes, Built-in HDR, Active D-Lighting modes, Multi-CAM 4800DX Autofocus Sensor, Eye Sensor, Vignette control, Mirror Lock-Up, Built-in Flash, Self Timer, Interval Recording and 1230mAh Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery.
