In general, the device is normal and if you are not embarrassed by its shortcomings, then you can take it. Although I would not take it if I had a choice, I would rather take the d5300, it is much better than this. Pros below: Good photo quality even at high iso. Record ful HD video at 60 fps. Ability to control remotely via IR. A good (of course, it is far from the best) kit lens is included. Cons below: There is no external microphone connector, although in older versions it was, why was it removed? . No WiFi. Using Bluetooth to transfer photos is ridiculous. The management of some settings is inconvenient, for example, to turn on the AF backlight, you need to get into the settings. The same thing about choosing the iso mode, in order to switch from auto-selection to manual, you need to go into the settings again, which is very inconvenient. Tracking af when shooting a video does not work well. It is better to shoot video on this device with static scenes with manual focus. No interval shooting - forget about time-lapses (the d5100 had such a function).
