The included 18-55mm VR II zoom lens is versatile and has proven to be a great choice for everyday photography. The Vibration Reduction (VR) feature is particularly useful in ensuring that my shots are crisp and blur-free, even when shooting at longer focal lengths.
The D3300 is also user-friendly, making it an excellent option for both beginners and enthusiasts. The intuitive controls and user interface are easy to navigate, and there's even a helpful Guide Mode that provides tips and assistance for those who are new to DSLR photography.
I've appreciated the camera's lightweight and compact design, which makes it easy to carry around for extended periods without feeling fatigued. The battery life is also impressive, allowing me to shoot without constantly worrying about recharging.
The D3300's ability to shoot Full HD video is a bonus. It captures smooth and clear videos with excellent color reproduction.

Excellent entry level DSLR
It's been a long time since I've bought myself a new camera, and I wanted something a step up from the super-zoom bridge cameras I've been using. I purchased the D3300, and I'm happy with my decision. The camera comes with the usual set of accessories, and an Auto Focus-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II Zoom Lens. The camera itself seems well built despite being largely rubberized plastic. The tripod mount is thankfully made from metal. The 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II Lens is pretty good for a kit lens. Again there's a lot of plastic on the outside, but it has very good glass as I'm having very good results with it. Together with the camera, it's a fairly lightweight combo for a DSLR. The camera is on the small side which I consider a positive thing. It has good ergonomics, and the controls are laid out well. I'm still getting used to the Nikon menus, and fine tuning the settings. After charging the battery which took little over an hour, I took several dozen pictures and some HD video using the default camera settings just to get an idea what kind of results to expect. I shot in Program Mode and JPEG (Fine). For the most parts the results ranged from excellent to good. Shots taken outside in good lighting conditions were excellent all around. Colors were vibrant and accurate. Reds were slightly exaggerated, but only slightly and no big deal to me. Also all the pictures seemed a little "soft" to me. This was easily corrected/improved though by bumping up the camera's Sharpness Setting a couple of steps. Changing it from the default +3 to +5 (on a scale of 0 to +9) made the pictures look much better. So far that's the only change I've need to make to be almost totally satisfied with my outdoor results. My indoor/poor lighting pictures are a work in progress. By no means were my results poor though. They were actually pretty good, but I know there's room for improvement. Even using the default settings though, the results surpassed anything my bridge cameras produce. I'm still learning how to get the best results with my new Nikon D3300, but the fact it can still produce good results right out of the box tells me things will only get better. As for my video results, they were very good too. I actually have little interest in taking video with this camera, as it isn't the reason I purchased it. But I wanted to test it anyway. HD Video was clear and smooth using a very fast 633x 32GB SDHC UHS-I/U3 Card. I believe people planning on using it for video taking will be happy with it. Finally, the battery life seems very good too. I took over 200 pictures with and without the flash on, and several videos. I've also spent a lot of time with the screen on messing around in the menus. The battery is still showing about 25% left. I'm sure under normal usage I could get over 500 shots on a single charge. Here is a summary of the Pro's and Con's that I've found so far with the Nikon D3300. I've also attached a low light/no flash ISO 800 picture to show the camera can still take good pictures even in poor lighting conditions.Pro's:Price.Excellent image and video quality.Small and lightweight.Well built.Very good kit lens with image stabilization.Easy to use.Good battery life.Auto Mode works well for novices.Cons:Only has 3 resolutions and 1 aspect ratio (4:3).A lot of plastic.No in-camera battery charging.Fixed non-touch LCD screen.WiFi requires an external adapter.
