[QUOTE="aroy, post: 277434, member: 16090"] D3xxx and D5xxx do not have motor in the body. Hence the older screw driver lenses do not auto focus. If you want to use these lenses it is D7xxx series or the FF cameras - D4, D800, D61, DF. After evaluating the D5300 and the D3300, I went for the D3300 as - I use only central focus point for AF. For my legacy lenses (as well as the screw driver ones) I manually focus. The D3300 "green dot" focus conformation has been dead accurate (as tested in live view) for my 50mmF1.8 AF and the 105mmF2.8AIS. - I do not like swiveled screen - more points of failure. - The DR is nearly same - In India at least the D5300 is priced 80% more than the D3300 Neither of these cameras meter with non cpu lenses, hence if I want that feature then it is FF camera. Both have Expeed 4 processor hence the FPS and Video specs are same [/QUOTE]
