Hi guys,
as the thread title suggests, I'm having trouble deciding between the two. I should mention this will be my first DSLR. Excited.
I'll be using it for product photography, the "against a white background" kinda stuff.
I don't really know enough about cameras to appreciate all the technical differences between the two, but understand some. Image sharpness will be important to me. Does one produce crisper images than the other? I would have thought the D5300 having more focal points, it would be easier to get sharper images from than the D3300. I would just say "shoot" and get the D5300, but it's considerably more expensive and for that price I would want weather sealing, which the the next model up has (the D7100?). So I'm thinking I will buy the D3300 then upgrade to the D7100 a couple of years down the line. I know I don't need weather sealing for indoors product photography, but I'm hoping I'll get more into amateur photography in the next few years. Having my first DSLR should help.
But if the D5300 would be considerably better in taking product shots than the D3300, then I would just rather get that in the first place. I've searched online for comparable images taken from both cameras of the same subject, same lighting, same setup, only the cameras changing, but found nothing.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
P.s. Is there a lens anyone would recommend specifically for product photography? I'll be shooting medium sized products, the size of shoes.
