In this review, we will be comparing the D5500 and the D5600, two Entry-Level DSLR cameras by Nikon. Nikon D5500 was introduced to the market in January 2015 and Nikon D5600 was launched in November 2016. There is 22 months difference between D5500 and D5600 so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger D5600, especially in sensor tech.
We can expect this to be a close match up because both models are ranked amongst the best in Entry-Level DSLR cameras. Out of 82 cameras in this class, Nikon D5500 is ranked
#7 with an overall score of 71 and Nikon D5600 is ranked
#5 with an overall score of 71.
D5500 and D5600 are members of Nikon's D5000 series of cameras. Below you can find the latest models from this series.
