Common Features – Nikon D5300 vs Canon 600D

Contrary to what some might think, the Nikon D5300 and the Canon 600D still share certain features. Such thought is justified since both cameras have different manufacturers.

Despite the unmistakable differences between the two, the D5300 and the 600D have the following similarities:

i. Viewfinder
ii. Sensor Format and Type
iii. Articulating Screen
iv. Built-in Flash
v. Hot Shoe
vi. Microphone Jack

Viewfinder

The viewfinder in a camera has a sole function. Its job is to aid the photographer in proper shots and frame control.

The type of viewfinder used in a camera determines the extent to which the camera can easily perform this function.

Therefore when choosing a camera, one has to decide if he/she wants a camera with an optical or electronic viewfinder; or a viewfinder that is made from a pentamirror or pentaprism material. The viewfinder type and the material used have their significance which we explain further below.

The major difference between an optical and electronic viewfinder is found in just two words: “Power Consumption”. For the electronic viewfinder (also known as a digital viewfinder) to function, it has to make use of the camera’s power derived from its battery. This affects the battery, as it is used up faster than if it were to be an optical viewfinder instead.

Usually, amateur DSLR cameras do not possess amazing battery longevity which is why they are not usually fitted with electronic viewfinders. Camera manufacturers like Nikon and Canon do this to save the battery’s life.

The material used to make the viewfinder has its significance. A viewfinder allows light to pass through it so that images can be seen by the photographer during framing and shot control. More flow of light means the photographer sees clearly which allows for better framing and control.

When we consider this and examine both materials used in making a viewfinder, we find out that the pentaprism has the advantage over the pentamirror viewfinder. This is because the pentaprism viewfinder allows the passage of more light through it. The pentamirror is usually found in amateur DLSR camera instead of the pentaprism.

Another thing is that most viewfinders are eye-level viewfinders. An eye-level viewfinder is one that has to be put close to the eye if framing and control are to be done. This is unlike those that are held at arm-length. The advantage it offers is that one can easily frame and properly control shots even when the sun is shining bright.

Having said all these, what kind of viewfinder do these cameras use? Well, the Nikon D5300 and the Canon 600D make use of an optical pentamirror eye-level viewfinder. This is commonly used by cameras within their category and level.

This similarity is further extended to the viewfinder’s coverage as both cameras have 95% field coverage. There is a slight difference though in terms of magnification as the D5300 has 0.55x magnification while the 600D has 0.53x magnification.

Sensor Format and Type

Both cameras are fitted with the APS-C sensor format also called DX-format by the Nikon Company. They also sport the same CMOS sensor type. The APS-C CMOS sensor is usually found in most amateur DSLR cameras.

The sensor used by a camera is of great importance as it is one of the factors that determine the extent of the camera’s sensitivity. Besides, the sensor used by a camera also affects the lenses that can be used with the camera. The size and weight of the lenses that can be used are bound to be the same provided the lenses used have the same focal length and aperture.

The ratio of the sensor’s width to its height is known as the native aspect ratio. The D5300 and the 600D have the same native aspect ratio of 3:2.

Articulating Screen

An articulating screen is a feature that offers you a flexible shooting experience. An articulating screen simply put is a screen that can be tilted, turned and swiveled.

The Nikon D5300 and the Canon 600D are both fitted with a fully articulating screen: In other words, you can fully turn the screen to face yourself as you continue taking pictures and making videos.

The flexibility this feature provides during shooting makes both cameras good for street photography since it requires shooting at difficult angles.

Vloggers are also bound to enjoy much out of this feature as it makes it easy for them to make their videos.

This feature makes the camera selfie-friendly as well which makes capturing images with family and friends fun.

The screen can also be flipped which is helpful when watching movies.

Built-in Flash

Light is essential to the production of a quality image. That’s why pictures shot in well-lit environments are of better quality than those shot in a low light condition.

Therefore, in situations where the lighting is poor, the photographer has to compensate and provide a source of light. In photography, a flash is used to supply this needed light.

Most cameras are equipped with a built-in flash that allows the supply of light necessary for image capture. The built-in flash reduces the need for an external flash as well as the extra weight it will add.

The Nikon D5300 and the Canon 600D both have this handy feature.

Hot Shoe

The built-in flash can only do so much as it is somewhat limited in flash power. Therefore, in such cases where the built-in flash does not properly illuminate the area, one needs to employ an external flash.

The external flash can only be used if the camera being used possesses a hot shoe feature.

The hot shoe is a platform usually found at the top of the camera that allows one to attach certain accessories to the camera.

The Nikon D5300 and the Canon 600D both sport a hot shoe feature and is compatible with most external flash including the ESDDI Camera Flash Speedlite.

Microphone Jack

The Nikon D5300 and the Canon 600D are both equipped with a built-in microphone.

This internal microphone allows these cameras to record audio during video shoots. The disadvantage here is that these microphones are somewhat limited in their ability to record quality audio.

Due to this limitation, most professionals employ the use of an external microphone to provide quality audio during video shoots.

However, these external microphones cannot be used without the presence of an important feature.

The microphone jack is an important feature that is necessary if one seeks to connect an external microphone to a camera. And, amazingly, the cameras in this comparison have this feature.

Unique Features – Nikon D5300 vs Canon 600D

In this section, we discuss those features exclusive to the Nikon D5300 but absent in the Canon 600D and vice versa.

Nikon D5300 Unique Features – Nikon D5300 vs Canon 600D

The following are the features that the D5300 has that the 600D does not have:

i. Built-in WiFi
ii. Built-in GPS
iii. Time-Lapse Recording
iv.Smartphone Remote Control
v. Nikon F Lens Mount
vi. EXPEED 4 Image Processor

Built-in WiFi

Connectivity has become a very important aspect of our lives in the 21^st century. WiFi is a connectivity tool that is readily employed in cameras nowadays.

Most cameras such as the Nikon D5300 are fitted with a built-in WiFi. This feature allows these cameras to share photos and videos with other compatible devices. Furthermore, photos and videos can be uploaded directly to social media platforms for general viewing.

Built-in GPS

Another built-in feature that distinguishes the Nikon D5300 from the Canon 600D is the built-in GPS. The D5300 is fitted with an internal GPS feature that allows accurate location tracking from any point on the planet earth.

Furthermore, with this feature, one can geotag images captured.

Geotagging is important as it allows the photographer to keep accurate records of where certain images were shot. A geotagged image sort of authenticates the photographer’s claim as the one who captured an image.

Time-Lapse Recording

A feature that is renowned for showcasing the creativity of a photographer is the time-lapse recording feature.

With this feature, one can create a video from several pictures that have been captured over some time.

If you decide to get the Nikon D5300, this feature will be available for you to showcase your creativity.

Smartphone Remote Control

Convenience and ease are important factors camera manufacturers consider when they make their cameras. One feature that has been incorporated by manufacturers due to this is the smartphone remote control feature.

This feature allows you to operate the Nikon D5300 with the use of a supported smartphone like the Samsung Galaxy A10 3. When the application is installed, you can conveniently access and control your camera’s settings by pressing your smartphone.

Nikon F Lens Mount

Nikon DSLR cameras are fitted with exclusive lens mount manufactured by the Nikon Company. Therefore, when comparing a DSLR camera such as the Nikon D5300 with a camera manufactured by another company, this feature is bound to be exclusive.

Therefore, the D5300 sports the exclusive Nikon F lens mount. With this lens mount, one can use up to 302 native lenses and 88 optical stabilization lenses. 

An added advantage this feature offers is the fact that you get to keep your lenses if you had used a Nikon Camera with the same Nikon F lens mount. This is because Nikon cameras that make use of the Nikon F lens mount make use of the same type of lenses.

EXPEED 4 Image Processor

The image processor of a Nikon and Canon camera will always be different. This is because both companies manufacture and make use of their image processors.

Therefore, the Nikon D5300 makes use of Nikon’s EXPEED 4 image processor.

The EXPEED 4 is the 4^th generation of Nikon’s image processors. With this processor, the D5300 is capable of capturing images that have better details than those produced by older Nikon processors. It is also the reason behind the camera’s video recording capabilities. Lastly, it aids in power conservation as less power is spent in carrying out the camera’s functions.

Canon 600D Unique Features – Nikon D5300 vs Canon 600D

The following are the features that the 600D has that the D5300 does not have:

i. Flash Sync Port
ii.Anti-Aliasing Filter
iii. iv. DIGIC 4 Image Processor
Canon EF Lens Mount and Lenses

Flash Sync Port

Although the Canon 600D has a built-in flash and the option of using an external flash via a hot shoe, it didn’t stop it from having a flash sync port as well.

The flash sync port allows one to fire an external flash or several ones at the same time to provide the lighting condition desired. This feature makes the 600D a better flash photography camera than the Nikon D5300.

To make use of this feature, one has to connect a cord that is from an external flash or a flash unit to the camera’s flash sync port. When this is done a signal is then sent to these flashes when the camera’s shutter is pressed.

Anti-Aliasing Filter

Moiré is a repetitive pattern of dots or lines that usually appears on images. It is usually caused when the pattern is higher than the sensor’s resolution.

Therefore, most cameras employ an anti-aliasing filter also known as a low pass filter to prevent such occurrence. This filter is usually found in front of the sensor.

The Canon 600D aka Rebel T3i is a camera that makes use of an anti-aliasing filter. This is not surprising as the sensor resolution of the camera is not so high and could be overcome by certain patterns during image capture.

Nevertheless, the use of this sensor has its disadvantages. Chief among them is the fact that the sharpness and detail of the image produced are greatly reduced. Because of this disadvantage, most manufacturers do not make use of the anti-aliasing filter in their cameras. The Nikon Company usually does this in most of its cameras including the Nikon D5300.

We feel (just like so many camera professionals) that the inclusion of the anti-aliasing filter is out of date. This is because moiré occurrence is rare and not as common as before. Also, most cameras have overcome moiré thanks to newer sensor technology. Nevertheless, since the Canon 600D aka Rebel T3i was announced in 2011, those sensor technologies were not available for this camera.

DIGIC 4 Image Processor

The Canon 600D employs the DIGIC 4 image processor. This is Canon’s 4^th generation image processor which is a successor to the DIGIC 3. The DIGIC 4 improves on everything the DIGIC 3 offered.

Canon EF Lens Mount and Lenses

Since the Canon Company also makes use of its own specially manufactured lens mount, the Canon 600D’s lens mount is an exclusive feature.

It sports the Canon EF lens mount which is usually found in cameras within its category. Thanks to this lens mount, the 600D can make use of 319 native lenses and 91 optical stabilization lenses.

Just like with the Nikon D5300, you can make use of lenses that you had before; as long as the cameras you owned before made use of the Canon EF lens mount.
