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

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not my cup of tea
*by J***Y on March 1, 2016*

After years away from SLR's, and after much satisfaction with super compacts (Sony RX100 iii) and mirrorless cameras (Panasonic FZ300, FZ1000, and Gx8), I decided to step up to an APS-C sensor with the D5500 (18-140 lens). I immediately experienced culture shock--or should I say shutter shock--as I listened to the thwap of the mirror engaging and disengaging with every shot. I tend to do a lot of stealth shooting--street photography, party settings, travel, music performances--and I had forgotten just how loud DSLR's are, compared to the silent setup I currently use. Further, I've become convinced that pronounced "mirror slap" creates vibration and lessens sharpness in low light (slow shutter) situations. In my own comparisons, low light settings that were fine for my mirrorless cameras, produced unusable (hand held) results with the D5500. I also found that the menu options on the Nikon were less clear and intuitive than those from Sony and Panasonic. Am I saying that the D5500 is not a good camera? Heck no, I honestly believe that it is a fine camera; it just wasn't the camera for me. Half of doing good photography is embracing the tool that you're working with; I found that the D5500 is not a camera I could love. I returned it, and suddenly had a renewed appreciation for my "little" micro four thirds and one inch sensor cameras!
