Nikon D5500 8 Years Later | Still A Street Photography Beast 📸

[@markmclachlan3803]

Cheers dude, great video. I needed this inspiration to go out and start using / learning with my D5500.

[@Boogie.702]

Thank you so much I really appreciate that, and I'm really glad I could help inspire you to go out and shoot that's what it's all about the D5500 is a really underrated camera 📷

[@r1berto1]

I got a D5500 (new) when it was released (mine is red). Two years ago, I dumped all my older Nikon F when I went mirror-less, but I kept the D5500. Still shoot it sometimes. You are right, it is NOT the camera, but the lenses and the person using them. You do great work, keep it up and thanks for posting it.

[@Boogie.702]

Thank you so much for the love and support I really appreciate that 🙏🏽

[@Mixer000999]

Rodrigo, thanks a lot for the great video and great photos! I also have D5500 and learn from you what can be done with this modest but very capable camera. Please do more videos like this to show various ways to create a composition and to use the camera - it helps a lot!

[@Boogie.702]

I most definitely will, thank you so much for the love and support I really appreciate it 🙏🏽

You don't need any face/eye tracking for photography, especially with APS-C sensors. This camera still rules. I also have Sony A7 II for more arty shooting with vintage manual lenses on adapters.

[@TSGEnt]

Shots are killer dude. Love the "puddle" shots. I've got a D5500 as well. I've got issues with the articulating screen. If flipped for selfie mode, it doesn't flip back to normal unless I repeatedly play with the screen. You experience that? We share a simular philosophy. You don't need the most recent and expensive camera to take good pictures. You just need to learn to take good pictures with what you have. Best to you bro.

[@Boogie.702]

Absolutely if you understand the basics of photography the camera really doesn’t matter, as far as the LCD screen I haven’t experienced that but mine is all messed up from the time it fell off the tripod 🤦🏽 my screen cracked

We've had our D5500 for a long time too and we love it! Sadly, we had a situation where we took photos in dim lighting and now there are "rings" that show up on the cameras that look like aberrations that Canon cameras have sometimes. These rings show up in the images too. Any tips? We updated the firmware and lens software too.

[@r1berto1]

It is all your fault! I got rid of all my F cameras and lenses when I went mirror-less. As you know I kept my (Red) D5500 with a couple of lenses for sentimental reasons. After watching your videos, I started using the old D5500 again. Recently I decided to add a D5600 to my collection. I was attracted by its wifi, bluetooth and Snapbridge capabilities. While shopping I found an attractive offer from Nikon USA. They offered a refurbished, fully warranted D5600 for $559.95, but if you add the 18-55 lens, it becomes $499.00. Naturally, I could not pass up the deal. I know you also use a Z6ii, I just wanted to pass this on to you.

[@Boogie.702]

Yeah I’m definitely gonna pick up a Nikon D5600 in the future if I find a good deal on it

[@r1berto1]

Great if you can $teal one. I got this one cause someone at Nikon must ha been smoking something when they set up the web pricing. That is it for me, I went mirrorless so that is all the F I'm buying.@@Boogie.702 Quick question, any of the Vegas floods affecting at all?

Nice man! I was looking at the Canon 760D (Rebel T6s to you), for product photography and maybe some model shots as a beginner. This camera got mentioned as being in the same class but also not having the low pass filter is it? So for making saying t-shirt product mockups, maybe that sharpness is just the ticket.

Hello Rodrigo. Great Video. Thanks for the motivation. I watched one of your videos and got the motivation to take out D5500 which was stored somewhere since years. Now I am getting serious for photography and you are one of the reasons for it. I need a sincere suggestion from you. I just have the kit lens that came with the camera (18-55). Now I am looking forward to get 35mm prime lens. Will you suggest me making my kit by getting different lenses for D5500 or since I just have the basic kit and given the camera is really old, should i get a new camera (I love Fuji system) and start building kit slowly for the same? Thank you in advance

@@Boogie.702 thank you for suggestions. I am planning to go for Fujifilm and build my kit in that system. Thank you again for your detailed response. I will keep watching your videos to get inspiration

[@andyboa8107]

I would suggest a used Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX HSM OS, the one with Optical Stabilization and you're good for low light photography. 35mm on APS-C is a bit too narrow. Also Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 which is sharper than Nikkor wide zoom lenses. As kit Nikkor 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6 is the best to me.
