The D5600 is a very subtle revision of the D5500 but that sole added feature – always-connected smartphone transfer – has the potential to be a massive benefit to its target market.

Nikon D5600
Just a few years ago, if you wanted to buy an entry-level or midrange interchangeable lens camera, an SLR was the clear way to go. Now, mirrorless models like the Sony Alpha 6000 are more appealing options, especially if you value video recording.
Pros:
- 24MP image sensor with no OLPF
- Excellent image quality
- 39-point AF system
- 5fps continuous shooting
- Speedy operation
- 1080p60 video capture
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communication
- External mic support
Cons:
- Cramped controls
- Pentamirror viewfinder
- Older screw-drive lenses won't autofocus
- Underwhelming contrast autofocus during video recording
- Limited Wi-Fi remote control
