Because Nikon's crop-sensor (DX) DSLRs share the exact same lens mount, finding the perfect wide-angle lens for sweeping landscapes or tight real estate photography is the same whether you shoot with an entry-level D3500 or a flagship D500. Here are my practical recommendations for the best wide-angle options for your Nikon DX camera.
By default, the Nikon D5300's Live View will turn itself off after 10 minutes. You can bump that up to a maximum of 30 minutes. Here's how.
I've been out shooting with the Nikon D5300 DSLR with a Nikon NIKKOR 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. It's a versatile combination, especially for something like travel photography. Here's a selection of images I've taken with it to give a sense of how it performs under real-world shooting conditions.
My name is David Coleman, and this is my site. I take photos for a living. Seven continents. Dozens of countries. Up mountains. Underwater. And a bunch of places in between. I'm based in Washington, D.C.
This site is where I post practical photography help, tips, and troubleshooting.
All posts and reviews on this site are written by me. And I only review gear with which I have personal hands-on experience. By a photographer, for photographers. More about me.
