Review: D5500 with 18-140mm Zoom and 35mm Prime Lens, a Winning Combination! - This D5500 with a 18-140mm lens was a recent upgrade from my D5000. Boy, what a difference! The D5500 camera body is lighter, more compact, easier to use and handle, and with more features. The LCD screen is much larger and higher resolution; something that always bothered me on the D5000. The touchscreen is nice as it give you access to more features, faster, than having to scroll through menus and around the screen with the cursor. Nikon seemed to simplify and organize the most commonly used futures, making them more intuitive to access as well. The pictures this camera takes are absolutely stunning. It's much more capable under lower light conditions, and the videos are great looking too. Now a work about the lens. I made this camera update for a vacation abroad. The 18-140mm is amazing; much heavier, sturdier and higher quality than the 18-55mm and 55-200mm kit lenses I already have from the D5000 purchase, with a metal lens mount instead of plastic. Operation is smoother and more precise, and the zoom range is perfect all-around; it also takes nice macro photos. It's one lens that covers it all, and from what I've read, is very good relative to the aforementioned kit lenses. However, I will say it is HEAVY; at over 1lb, it tends to make the camera droop when it's around my neck and weigh the little D5500 down. I happened to purchase the inexpensive 35mm f/1.8g fantastic plastic lens (also with metal mount) at the same time, just for fun. I must say, the combination of the D5500 and 35mm prime lens is wonderful. This is a perfect match - the entire camera/lens assembly is light, small, easy to carry, and just feels right. Maybe even a BETTER vacation setup. And the prime is really FUN to use; it takes uber-sharp pictures, particularly under low-light indoors and gives you one less thing to adjust when you are taking shots. I am happy I have the versatile 18-140mm lens with my D5500 for situations where I know I will need a longer reach, kids sporting events, wildlife, etc, but the 35mm prime is the hands-down winner for indoor/low-light, city traveling and street shots. Get the D5500 with the 18-140mm lens...but don't forget the 35mm prime!
Review: Great Camera and Lens - Great camera and kit for a amateur photographer. My husband actually bought this camera for me with the 18-55 lens and I returned it for the 18-140 mm. That was definitely a good decision- minimal cost and size difference, for a huge upgrade in range. Instead of always carrying around a 18-55mm and a 55-300mm, I only use this one lens for daily use. Different story if you're a professional, but for someone who doesn't want to carry around multiple lenses, this is the best kit. I would recommend against buying the camera with accessories packages. They may seem like a good deal, but typically contain useless or poor-quality accessories so it's not worth it in the end. Put good thought into what you need and then research your options... or you'll find yourself with a cheap quality accessories that ruin your photos. This camera is capable of taking amazing pictures, only if the accessories don't ruin the quality.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the body only version come with a battery and charger?**
A: Yes, is it!

**Q: Is this a US version with warranty?**
A: Buyer Beware. This is NOT a US Nikon Body. It was supplied with a generic box that does not have the original cameras serial number on it. The serial number on the Camera body started with a 2. Generally most US Nikons start with a 3.  Nikon USA confirmed that I did not have a  US version.  So no warranty and no software updates . No Manual or any paper work included. I immediately returned the Camera and they have only credited me with $283. I paid $555. Amazon is investigating why I received so little of a return.

**Q: Can this be Micro USB charged? I had an old camera which I actually was able to charge through the Micro USB slot with an external battery**
A: I own this camera and the charging cannot be done through the Micro USB. That being said, the battery charger comes with an "in wall" charger and completely cordless. The time to charge is pretty fast and you can get about 800 (probably more) with one charge. That should be a fair amount for every day use. If you are an avid photographer we all know to keep extra batteries on hand while shooting :)

**Q: where the camera is made?**
A: Unless they change recently, both camera and lenses are made in Thailand

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Camera and Lens
*by K***U on October 13, 2015*

Great camera and kit for a amateur photographer. My husband actually bought this camera for me with the 18-55 lens and I returned it for the 18-140 mm. That was definitely a good decision- minimal cost and size difference, for a huge upgrade in range. Instead of always carrying around a 18-55mm and a 55-300mm, I only use this one lens for daily use. Different story if you're a professional, but for someone who doesn't want to carry around multiple lenses, this is the best kit. I would recommend against buying the camera with accessories packages. They may seem like a good deal, but typically contain useless or poor-quality accessories so it's not worth it in the end. Put good thought into what you need and then research your options... or you'll find yourself with a cheap quality accessories that ruin your photos. This camera is capable of taking amazing pictures, only if the accessories don't ruin the quality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ At least equivalent to the Sony A6000 at a cheaper price if you include good lenses.
*by N***N on March 18, 2017*

My Sony A6000 with the 18-200mm lens was stolen, and I couldn't justify sticking with Sony after that. Basically Sony is just too expensive for what you. After the theft, I still had my HVLF 43mm flash, 35mm Sony prime lens, Sony hotshoe microphone and after selling all those things I was almost able to pay for this camera and an additional 35mm Nikon prime lens. A lot of this review will compare it to the Sony A6000 which I previously had. I am an amateur photographer who doesn't have much to play around with Manual settings. Bottom line is for $1000 total (including the 35mm prime lens), I got a camera that was at least equivalent to the Sony A6000. The flash of this is much better than the built in flash on the A6000 which was so weak that I needed to get the external flash. The Nikon D5500 flash is built in and is way better than the Sony A6000 flash, due to it's further range and better resulting picture quality. If you have a bright background and need to use the flash for a portrait picture, then this works great. This was not the case with Sony's teeny A6000 flash. LCD. It's a touch screen, and allows you to touch the screen and focus on an object. The A6000 didn't let me do this. The A6500 does, but at a cost of 2.5X times this. It also fully swivels and turns and can be turned to face inwards when you're not using this, which is a great feature. The Sony A6000 sometimes missed the focus point which for me taking pictures of my kids was/is important. With the A6000 and my kids on the move, I didn't have time to move the cursor to track someone's face, which it also lost. With the D5500, you can either touch the part of the scene/screen that you want the camera to track and focus, or you can set it to automatically take the picture when you touch the part of screen/scene that you want the camera to focus on and then take your finger off the screen. Manual control is definitely not as good as the A6000. You cannot manually the ISO, shutter speed and aperture at the same time. Automatic mode and SCNs result in better pictures than the modes on the A6000. Overall picture quality is good enough for me which is mostly family and kid pictures with the odd landscape. Size is definitely bigger than the A6000 but with the A6000, I was using the 18-200mm lens and once you put on a big lens than the size of the body doesn't matter as much. Viewfinder is optical instead of digital. The A6000 wins here. Digital viewfinder shows what your picture is going to look like. Optical viewfinider does not. I definitely miss this feature. Lastly, as other reviewers have said, the wireless features of the Nikon D5500 don't work that well, which wasn't important to me. They also didn't work well with the Sony A6000 unless you had that touch NFC thing on your mobile or tablet. This was not important to me, but I still think Nikon could/should sort this out. In short, if you plan to get an A6000 and just use the kit 16-50mm lens and the 55-210mm lens, and you don't really care about a touchscreen and a good flash, then I would suggest you go with the Sony A6000 over this. If you plan on buying other lenses and care about having a good flash, and a touchscreen then I would go with the Nikon D5500. For $1000 total, I got the Nikon D5500, the 18-140mm lens, the 35mm prime lens, plus extra batteries, charger, camera case, shoulder strap and wrist strap. For me, this was the best camera in this price range which had all the features I wanted except one (digital viewfinder).
