Nikon has announced the Nikon D5600 for the Indian market. It features a vari-angle LCD monitor that flips out and rotates. The touch screen operation has been further enhanced with the addition of a crop function for use during playback zoom, and a frame advance bar that lets users scroll through images in playback mode easily.
Time-lapse movie function from has also been incorporated into this D-SLR. It also comes with support for the SnapBridge app means that with a one-time setup, a constant connection between the D5600 and a smart device is maintained, enabling automatic transfer of photos.
In addition, a number of convenient functions, including automatic upload to Nikon's photo sharing service, NIKON IMAGE SPACE, the addition of copyright information and comments to photos, and automatic synchronization of camera date/time and location information with that of the smart device, can be used. The camera also supports high-speed transfer of selected still images, movie transfer, and remote capture of still images when Wi-Fi is enabled.
The camera is equipped with a 3.2-inch vari-angle LCD touch screen monitor that enables shooting from low to high angles, and even selfies. The touch screen function shares the same touch operations available with the D5500, but the new camera also supports the frame advance bar adopted for the high-end D5 and D500 for scrolling through images in full-frame playback.
In addition, the touch Fn function that is favoured with the D5500 has been expanded to support the enabling and disabling of auto ISO sensitivity control, and operation with viewfinder shooting has also been improved.
The intuitive D5600 offers a pixel count of 24.2-million pixels and is equipped with a Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor without an optical low-pass filter. The combination of this technology, alongside an EXPEED 4 image-processing engine, enables capture of images that make the most of the superior rendering characteristics of NIKKOR lenses. A broad range of standard sensitivities are supported with ISO 100 to 25600, enabling captures of highly detailed images in which noise is effectively suppressed, even with shooting in dark or dimly lit surroundings.
The D5600 is newly equipped with the time-lapse movie function, which allows users to compress long periods of time into short ones, entirely within the camera. In addition, the exposure smoothing function makes capturing time-lapse movies easier by suppressing variations in exposure caused by changes in lighting that occur naturally. Time-lapse movies recorded with the camera can also be transferred to a smart device via SnapBridge.
