Nikon's latest DSLR outpaces even the best smartphones,...

Nikon has a new affordable mid-range DLSR for 2017. Announced at CES, the D5600 DSLR is a lightweight, compact, and rugged DSLR with a 24.2MP APS-C CMOS image sensor that, when paired with Nikon's EXPEED 4 image processor, can capture 5fps of still images or Full 1080/60p HD videos.

Let me start off by saying that using the Nikon D5600 reminded me a lot of using one of my favourite digital cameras, the Nikon D90. It’s so easy to use and offers great-quality images with little effort, allowing you to focus on finding a picture, rather than fiddling with menu settings.

The Nikon D5600 might just be the perfect gift this holiday as it is packed with features that will surely sweep any beginner off their feet, but is it a more worthy upgrade or first choice compared to its predecessor?
