Nikon D500 DxOMark Sensor Scores
DxOMark is a benchmark for evaluating the image quality of camera sensors scientifically. DxO Mark evaluated the Nikon D3300 sensor and gave it an overall score of 82 for its ability to produce high-quality images. The specifics of their examination of the Nikon D3300 are available here.
Anti-Aliasing Filter
The absence of an anti-alias (Low-pass) filter on the sensor of the Nikon D3300 is a significant aspect. Removing the anti-aliasing filter improves the sharpness and degree of detail but also increases the likelihood of moire in some settings.

The 3.00-inch Fixed Type LCD screen on the Nikon D3300 features a 921k-dot resolution. The screen size and resolution meet the requirements for this class.
Sadly, the Nikon D3300 lacks a selfie-friendly screen.
Focus
| Autofocus | Nikon Multi-CAM 1000 autofocus sensor module with TTL phase detection, 11 focus points (including one cross-type sensor), and AF-assist illuminator (range approx. 0.5 to 3 m/1 ft 8 in. to 9 ft 10 in.) |
| Detection range | -1 to +19 EV (ISO 100, 20°C/68°F) |
| Lens servo | Autofocus (AF): Single-servo AF (AF-S); continuous-servo AF (AF-C); auto AF-S/AF-C selection (AF-A); predictive focus tracking activated automatically according to subject status Manual focus (MF): Electronic rangefinder can be used |
| Focus point | Can be selected from 11 focus points |
| AF-area mode | Single-point AF, dynamic-area AF, auto-area AF, 3D-tracking (11 points) |
| Focus lock | Focus can be locked by pressing the shutter-release button halfway (single-servo AF) or by pressing AE-L/AF-L (protect) button |
The Nikon D3300 contains autofocus (AF) systems that use both contrast detection and phase detection, ensuring that it can focus quickly and precisely in the majority of circumstances. There are 11 focus locations in the AF system, and 1 of these sensors is a cross-type. Compared to single-type sensors, cross-type sensors are faster and more accurate at locking focus.
Additionally, the Nikon D3300 has face detection autofocus, which automatically locks focus when it detects faces in the frame.
Autofocus
| AF Touch | NO |
| AF Continuous | YES |
| AF Sigle | YES |
| AF Tracking | YES |
| AF Selective | YES |
| AF Centre | NO |
| AF Multi-view | YES |
| AF Live view | YES |
| AF Face Detection | YES |
| AF Contrast detection | YES |
| AF Phase detection | YES |
| Number of focus points | 11 |
| Number of cross-focus points | 1 |
The D3300 boasts a true through-the-lens optical viewfinder, much like all SLRs. For instance, it is not as big as a D7100’s, but at 0.85x magnification, it is slightly bigger than a D3200’s. On the focusing screen, there are 11 tiny dots that serve as permanent, unobtrusive markers for the locations of the 11 autofocus sensors. When using single-point autofocus, which lets you choose which AF point the camera should utilize, the active autofocus point turns red when the shutter release is half-pressed.
Auto Area, Dynamic Area, and 3D Tracking are some of the several AF area options that are accessible. Focusing with the optical viewfinder is still much faster than in Live View mode, and autofocus speeds with the new kit zoom were quick.
Video Recording
| Metering | TTL exposure metering using the main image sensor |
| Metering method | Matrix |
| Frame size (pixels)and frame rate | 1920 x 1080, 60p (progressive)/50p/30p/25p/24p, high (fine)/normal 1280 x 720, 60p/50p, high (fine)/normal 640 x 424, 30p/25p, high (fine)/normal Frame rates of 30p (actual frame rate 29.97 fps) and 60p (actual frame rate 59.94 fps) are available when NTSC is selected for video mode; 25p and 50p are available when PAL is selected for video mode; Actual frame rate when 24p is selected is 23.976 fps |
| File format | MOV |
| Video compression | H.264/MPEG-4 Advanced Video Coding |
| Audio recording format | Linear PCM |
| Audio recording device | Built-in monaural or external stereo microphone; sensitivity adjustable |
| ISO sensitivity | ISO 100 to 12800; can also be set to approx. 1 EV (ISO 25600 equivalent) above ISO 12800 |
The EXPEED 4 image processor, first introduced in the more expensive D5300, is coupled with the sensor in the Nikon D3300. The D3300 can now shoot still images at five frames per second, up from four frames per second in the previous model, when compared to the EXPEED 3 chip of the D3200. It also allows for Full HD (1080p; 1,920 x 1,080 pixel) video capture at a 60fps rate, whereas its predecessor was limited to 24 or 30fps. That allows for smoother motion, or for a 0.5x slow motion effect without reducing the frame rate beyond that of the older model.
Compatible Lenses
| Compatible lenses | Autofocus is available with AF-S and AF-I lenses; Autofocus is not available with other type G and D lenses, AF lenses (IX NIKKOR and lenses for the F3AF are not supported), and AI-P lenses; Non-CPU lenses can be used in mode M but the camera exposure meter will not function electronic rangefinder can be used with lenses that have a maximum aperture of f/5.6 or faster |
There are presently 316 native lenses that can be used with the Nikon D3300’s Nikon F lens mount. Nikon F mount has one of the widest selections of lenses and has backward compatibility, allowing you to use lenses dating back to the 1960s. Additionally, it is highly supported by lenses made by independent producers.
The Nikon D3300 has a minor drawback in that it lacks an internal focus motor, making it incompatible with older screw-drive autofocus (AF) lenses. With contemporary Nikon AF-S, AF-I, and G lenses, it continues to function properly, while lenses from the 1980s may not autofocus on the Nikon D3300.

Live View
| Lens servo | Autofocus (AF): Single-servo AF (AF-S); full-time-servo AF (AF-F)Manual focus (MF) |
| AF-area mode | Face-priority AF, wide-area AF, normal-area AF, subject-tracking AF |
| Autofocus | Contrast-detect AF anywhere in frame (camera selects focus point automatically when face-priority AF or subject-tracking AF is selected) |
| Automatic scene selection | Available in auto and auto [flash off] modes |
The contrast-detect autofocus technique is used by the camera in Live View. You can either start this with a half-press of the shutter release or have the camera focus constantly, depending on the AF setting that is selected. Though much quicker than on older models, the first technique is still far behind the phase detection technique utilized outside of Live View in terms of speed. The other autofocus setting, known as full-time AF, may cause more annoyance than gain because the photo can lose focus just as you were about to capture it (though you can at least lock focus by half-pressing the shutter release when you think the focus is where it should be).
Naturally, you may manually focus while in Live View mode. The loupe icon button can be continuously pressed to zoom into the live image, just like on older LV-enabled models. However, because the live view feed looks to be low resolution, this magnification is not very useful. On a similar note, it irritates me that Nikon still doesn’t provide a live histogram to assist you in determining the proper exposure while using Live View mode.

FAQs
Is Nikon D3300 good camera?
YES. The Nikon D3300 is among the greatest entry-level cameras because of how simple it was to operate, how well it produced images, and how inexpensive it was. But if you want to buy new, you will probably find better offers for the D3400 (opens in new tab) or the D3500 (opens in new tab), as the D3300 is no longer a popular model.
Is Nikon D3300 good for beginners?
YES. The Nikon D3300 successfully achieves its goal of becoming a DSLR for beginners. The majority of the controls are ideal for individuals who wish to experiment with Aperture or Shutter priority mode and go beyond the fundamentals. It works nicely in point-and-shoot mode.
What is the maximum shutter count for Nikon D3300?
Online, I’ve read that the Nikon D3300 has a 200,000 shutter activation rating.
Does Nikon D3300 have built in WiFi?
NO. The D3300 lacks an integrated Wi-Fi module. The WU-1a wireless adaptor is necessary for the D3300 to connect to any iOS or Android device.
Is Nikon D3300 full frame?
NO. All of the older Nikon camera models, including the D4, D600, D700, D800/E, D3, D3S, and D3X, as well as the DF, D610, D750, D810, and D4S, have full-frame sensors. All of Nikon’s full-frame sensor cameras are referred to as FX.
Does Nikon D3300 have video?
YES. To start recording video on the D3300, press the “Lv” button on the back panel to activate the live view. Pressing the red movie record button, which is located right behind the shutter release, will start a recording.
Does the Nikon D3300 have live view?
YES. In our tests, the Nikon D3300’s contrast-detect AF, which is a bit slow even for Live View, took roughly 1.8 seconds to focus. (How quickly the lens can change focus here makes a significant effect.) In Live View mode, prefocused shutter latency was also longer but still acceptable at 0.47 seconds.
Does Nikon D3300 have HDMI?
YES. The Nikon D3300 has an HDMI output that may be used to broadcast clear, uncompressed video at up to 1080p30 while recording for use with an external display or recorder, in addition to being used for image and movie playback.
Does the Nikon D3300 have a mic input?
YES. For connecting a Nikon ME-1 Stereo Microphone or a ME-W1 Wireless Microphone for external recording, the Nikon D3300 DSLR camera contains a stereo mini-pin jack (3.5-mm diameter). Each of these choices can greatly lessen the amount of autofocus noise that is captured.
Is Nikon D3300 a crop sensor?
YES. You do not need to utilize DX lenses only because the Nikon D3300 has a crop sensor. The DX-format D3300 employs F-mount lenses, just like all other Nikon cameras. This indicates that it will be compatible with all AF-S and AF-P Nikon lenses (lenses with built-in autofocus motors).
Does Nikon D3300 have autofocus motor?
NO. The D5600, D5500, D5300, D5200, D5100, D5000, D3500, D3400, D3300, D3200, D3100, D3000, D60, D40X, and D40 do not have an autofocus motor incorporated into the camera body.
Does AF lens work on D3300?
YES. The Nikon AF-P 70-300 4.5-5.6E ED VR lens is compatible and will function with your Nikon D3300 without any restrictions.
How long does Nikon D3300 take to charge?
A Nikon EN-EL14 or Nikon EN-EL14a Rechargeable Li-ion battery powers the Nikon D3300 DSLR camera. Before using the battery for the first time, it should be fully charged, which takes around an hour and 50 minutes. The charger’s indicator light will turn solid when the charge is finished.
