Superb image quality through cutting-edge innovations

Featuring enhanced quality and speed, the EXPEED 4 image processor is the perfect companion to the 24.2-megapixel DX-format CMOS.

Its wide sensitivity range of ISO100 – ISO12800 at normal setting delivers impressive noise reduction and is expandable to 25600 for extreme low-light situations.

Define every detail with its 39-point Autofocus

For optimal sharpness, the D5300’s accurate 39-point autofocus quickly locks on to and track subjects. Its 3D Tracking mode seamlessly maintains focus even when your subject is moving towards or away from the camera – ideal for videos and sports photography. Choose from a variety of autofocus-area focus modes, including Wide-Area AF, Face Priority AF and Subject Tracking AF to match your shooting styles.
