The Nikon D5500 features a carbon-fiber composite body, weighs 60 grams less than its predecessor (the D5300), and has a touchscreen as well as Wi-Fi. It lacks NFC (near field communication) connectivity and GPS functionality.[5]
The Nikon D5500 is a compact DSLR containing a 24.2 megapixel sensor with no optical low-pass filter. It also features a touchscreen LCD and a lightweight design. It includes a 39-point autofocus system and ability to shoot up to 5 frames per second, as well as built-in Wi-Fi capabilities.[6]
A review by Camera Decision highlighted the bigger buffer for raw files and the longer battery life.[7]
The D5500 was superseded by the D5600 in late 2016.
