A Top Quality Camera With Many Features

The D5500 although now superseded by the D5600, is almost identical to the newer model. This mid-range series is universally recognised as one of the best cameras of its type. The professional cameras from Nikon do offer some additional features but at double the price. The range of features in the D5500 is considerable anyway.
You can use it as a point and shoot camera in auto mode to start with but, then move to using scenes and although more complex you can then move to taking more control with program, aperture, shutter speed or manual options, when you want to seriously develop your skills.
It can save in RAW, if you have the software and time to process each picture, otherwise set to JPEG. You can make a Wi-fi link to a smart device too as well as accepting a large range of FX lenses, Flashes, remote control devices. There is a built in flash for simple flash lighting.
It is worth downloading and reading the manual to get a better understanding of what this remarkable device can do.

Superb Camera - punches well above its weight

This camera is, so far as I can tell - the best in its category. I only paid £350 for it brand new. Takes great quality photos and has good effects features. Lenses galore and not too expensive. Loads of second hand ones about too. Only downside is the video will only shoot for up to 20 mins at a time.Read full review

Nikon 5500 dslr

This camera is an incredible value for money DSLR. Combine it with a vast array of lenses...you can achieve an interesting selection of shots at semi professional level. Good battery life and ease of operation and intuitive touchscreen that has all the information needed.Read full review

Very pleased with the purchase.

Was a little surprised with the packaging as it wasn't of the original body only but the kit packaging and the charger switch was not the original either but that's fine as I needed a 3 pin and so they made the change for me. The sd card jack was a little stiff and so was the monitor when turning but otherwise very very pleased.Read full review

Great camera

Exactly what I wanted nice upgrade from my D3100 can still use my existing lenses but I am looking for something other than a Nikon kit lens for it that's why I bought body only. D5500 still classed as a entry level camera but plenty good enough for me and also I was working with a tight budget another reason to buy body only.Read full review

Do realy have to advertise Nikon quality?

Nikon won between Nikon and Lumix. Nikon because later on it could be developed because of exchangeable lenses. Nikon gives me more option witch u can but don't have to use BUT u got them!

Easy to use

Got it on default auto ISO. When lockdown and weather allow a good range of conditions I will be able to get to know the practical ISO limits as at the moment this is just guesswork
