Ease of Use
The design of the brand new Nikon D3300 is nearly an identical to it is 12-month outdated predecessor, the D3200. The Nikon D3300 is a reasonably small DSLR digicam, though it does include an excellent chunkier right-hand grip than the D3200, with a extra pronounced lip on the high. Nonetheless, count on having to discover a place in your little finger underneath the digicam in case you have larger-than-average fingers.
The digicam physique itself is especially plastic, however whereas the D3300 definitely does not really feel as strong as a few of the firm’s increased specified fashions, it nonetheless exudes a level of high quality you won’t count on at this worth level. That is helped by the surprisingly stylish rubber coating on the grip, which additionally seems on the thumb relaxation on the again of the digicam. The Nikon D3300’s physique is nearly an identical to its predecessor when it comes to the general dimensions and weight, with all the exterior controls in just about the identical locations as earlier than. The brand new ‘i’ button on the again of the digicam makes it attainable to bypass the principle menu in an effort to shortly change key settings.
The brand new 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 VR II package lens that ships with the D3300 is without doubt one of the predominant speaking factors of the D3300. For the primary time Nikon have carried out a retractable design to make the lens extra transportable when it isn’t in use, one thing that various compact system cameras have of their lens ranges. In consequence the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 VR II is far more compact thatn its predecessor when retracted to the L place, though after all you continue to have to increase it outwards to begin capturing.

The Nikon D3300 follows standard DSLR design in having a capturing mode dial on the highest of the digicam, which lets you choose both one of many superior modes like Guide, Aperture- or Shutter-priority, or various scene modes.
The Information mode first seen within the D3000 has additionally been carried over, and contains pattern photographs that can assist you to determine the shot, and choices within the Superior operation menu enable you to scale back blur or soften backgrounds. The primary function of the Information mode stays the identical as on the D3000, D3100 and D3200, particularly to show novices about what settings to make use of in various capturing conditions, and the way these settings affect the ultimate output. We really feel that Nikon deserves kudos for this, as a mode like this may educate novices much more in regards to the fundamentals of images than the inexperienced Auto mode through which the digicam assumes management of virtually every little thing.
The Results capturing mode, first launched on the higher-end D5100, has been added to the D3300 and gives 13 totally different filters that may be utilized to each nonetheless photographs and films. The Night time Imaginative and prescient impact is especially price of point out, pushing the digicam’s sensitivity to a whopping ISO 102,400, though a monochrome reasonably than color picture is recorded. For stills, you possibly can enter Reside View mode to preview the impact or just use the optical viewfinder. For films, the recording is slowed down (dependent upon the chosen impact) because the digicam makes use of a number of processing energy to use the impact, resulting in footage that may have a reasonably staccato really feel. Observe additionally that the digicam units nearly every little thing within the Results mode – publicity, shutter pace, white stability, ISO, file kind and high quality – so its solely artistic when it comes to the arty impact that is utilized. A number of of the identical results may be utilized to a picture or film that you’ve got taken, although, so you possibly can have the very best of each worlds (albeit with out the luxurious of a preview).
The Publicity Compensation button is thoughtfully positioned subsequent to the shutter launch. Maintain down this button along with your proper forefinger and spin the management wheel on the top-rear of the digicam along with your thumb to regulate its settings – easy and intuitive. In M mode, this easy-to-reach button permits you to toggle between aperture and shutter pace settings, making the dearth of a second management wheel much less problematic.

The second button sitting subsequent to the shutter launch, labelled ‘data’, is arguably on the coronary heart of the Nikon D3300’s ease-of-use, because the digicam lacks the monochromatic standing LCD of dearer fashions just like the D7100, so Nikon had to offer a distinct option to test important capturing info with out having to look into the viewfinder. Enter the data button – urgent it shows nearly all the digicam’s predominant settings on the massive, excessive decision rear display screen.
The identical display screen is used for the D3300’s Reside View and film recording modes. As famous above, the Nikon D3300 has a small button on the again which makes coming into Reside View an easy and easy affair. In Reside View the digicam autofocuses utilizing the distinction detect technique. Relying on the AF mode set, you possibly can both provoke this by way of a half-press of the shutter launch, or have the digicam maintain focusing repeatedly. The primary technique is noticeably quicker than on earlier fashions, although nonetheless not practically as fast because the part detection technique used exterior Reside View. The opposite autofocus mode, known as full-time AF, may be extra of an annoyance than a profit, as the image may exit of focus simply earlier than you needed to take a shot (although you possibly can at the very least lock focus by half-pressing the shutter launch while you suppose focus is the place it ought to be).
After all you can even focus manually whereas in Reside View mode. As with earlier LV-enabled fashions, it’s attainable to amplify into the stay picture by repeatedly urgent the button labelled with a loupe icon – nevertheless, resulting from what seems to be a lo-res stay view feed, this magnification will not be a lot assist. On a associated observe, it is also annoying that Nikon nonetheless does not provide a stay histogram that can assist you get the publicity proper when working in Reside View mode.

The Nikon D3300 encompasses a 1080p Full HD “D-movie” mode. On the highest decision setting, the digicam can file films at 60p/50p/30p/25p/24p, whereas at 1280×720 pixels you possibly can select from 60p/50p. The Nikon D3300 gives full-time autofocus in film mode, however you could shortly resolve to show this characteristic off. For one factor, the sound of the main focus motor within the lens will get picked up by the microphone. For an additional, the topic could exit of focus for no obvious motive. When you actually wish to make certain an erratically transferring topic stays sharp all through the clip, you had higher cease down the lens for sufficient depth of subject to work with, and depart all shallow-depth-of-field trickery to static or predictably transferring topics.
There is a component of publicity management when capturing films. Each the aperture and the shutter pace may be pre-set earlier than you begin filming and adjusted while capturing, a welcome boon to your creativity. By default, publicity adjustments with topic luminance whereas capturing a clip, though you possibly can at the very least lock publicity by holding down the AE Lock button. The digicam doesn’t present any particular suggestions on focus or spotlight blow-out (i.e. no “peaking” or “zebras” like in skilled video cameras), however there may be guide management over audio ranges and sound is recorded by means of the built-in stereo microphone. You may as well hook the D3300 as much as an optionally available exterior stereo mic to enhance the audio high quality. Movies are compressed utilizing the H.264 codec and saved in a MOV container.
Like all SLRs, the D3300 has a correct through-the-lens optical viewfinder. It is not as giant as that of a D7100, for instance, however at 0.85x magnification it’s barely bigger than the D3200’s. The positions of the 11 autofocus sensors are completely however unobtrusively marked on the focusing display screen with 11 tiny dots. In single-point AF mode – in which you’ll specify which AF level the digicam ought to use – the lively autofocus level lights up in purple upon a half-press of the shutter launch. The opposite accessible AF space modes embody Auto Space, Dynamic Space and 3D Monitoring. Autofocus speeds with the brand new package zoom have been snappy, and focusing with the optical viewfinder remains to be quite a bit quicker than in Reside View mode.

Identical to most different entry-level Nikon dSLRs, the Nikon D3300 lacks a body-integral focus motor, so it will probably solely autofocus with AF-S and AF-I lenses which have the AF motor in-built. Different AF Nikkors can be utilized in manual-focus mode solely, though the AF sensors stay lively and might at the very least present focus affirmation by way of the inexperienced dot within the in-finder LCD.

Guide-focus AI and AI-s lenses and not using a CPU can solely be utilized in M mode, and the digicam will refuse to offer any type of metering, so you’ll both have to make use of an exterior meter or take a number of take a look at pictures to find out the optimum publicity. Focus affirmation, nevertheless, works with these lenses too, by way of the inexperienced dot; albeit the afore-mentioned “digital rangefinder” performance is disabled. One attention-grabbing factor we discovered is that in the event you shoot a D-movie utilizing a non-CPU lens, the digicam will modify publicity usually, so the dearth of metering solely applies to stills.

Many of those capabilities make it pointless to purchase specialised pc packages or plug-ins and spend hours in entrance of a pc to attain a desired/standard impact.
The Nikon D3300 is powered by a proprietary Lithium-ion battery that gives 700-shot life, and ships with a cordless charger that plugs immediately right into a mains socket. For storage, the digicam makes use of SD, SDHC and SDXC reminiscence playing cards.

Conclusion
The Nikon D3300 at first appears to supply little in the way in which of latest options or efficiency when in comparison with final yr’s D3200 mannequin, however the many small enhancements that Nikon have made – removing of the Optical Low Move Filter, quicker EXPEED 4 processor, expanded ISO vary 20 256,000, quicker 5fps burst capturing, 50/60p film mode, improved battery life, and a brand new vary of particular results from the D5000-series – do add as much as make the D3300 a greater, if far more costly, DSLR digicam.
