The plot is not new: the veteran boxer by virtue of certain circumstances enters the ring for a fight with a young and ambitious opponent. In movies and books, the outcome depends on the initial positioning of the characters. The winner is a good (or bad, but only to the good in the final triumph). In a duel of younger versions of products from worldwide leading manufacturers of digital SLR cameras is no “good” and “bad” characters, but, nevertheless, the situation is this. So, let’s see how will winner Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300?
In the red corner of the ring today, Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300, an ambitious young fighter, announced March 10, 2016 and only went on sale in the Ukrainian market. In the yellow corner of the ring – a veteran Nikon D3300, announced January 7, 2014 two years ago whether the machine be able to compete on equal terms with the new camera?
ROUND 1 CANON 1300D VS NIKON D3300. DESIGN AND ERGONOMICS
Both devices are designed in a simple style digital classics. They have no elements “hipster retro” or colored design refinements, which spoiled buyers another Japanese manufacturer, Risoh holding today trading Pentax brand. In them, it is impossible to fall in love at first sight and hate from the second. With any of these, you will not look like a black sheep in the coterie of “cool” photographers.
Canon 1300D little harder but the difference is 55 grams clearly does not play a big role. Dimensions of the two chambers about the same, but the Nikon D3300 is less than a couple of millimeters. In terms of convenience, retention aids are roughly equal, although the Nikon little more hollow under the middle finger, which means to use heavy lenses will be a little more convenient. However, the projection of the thumb is more at the Canon, so that parity is maintained. Canon’s grip is thinner and it gives additional space for the fingers of his right hand between it and the lens. In the summer of nuance will experience very few, but in cold weather, wear gloves – a lot more people.
Power Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300 is included under the lever drive select the shooting mode, and the Nikon D3300 – switch, framing the Shutter button. Although the power consumption of the system is now quite smart camera is still switched off. Theoretically, D3300 can be brought into operation a little faster and more comfortable, especially if the camera is installed on a hard lens: index finger to make it uncomfortable (On position is on the part of the photographer) and the thumb is needed to securely hold the housing.
Discs selection of shooting modes (which also made SCN) are right on top of the cabinet (additional screens in the models of this class is not used). At Nikon disc rotates in both directions, without limitation, from Canon – on the corner of a little more than 270º.
The Canon 1300D controls are focused on the right and available to the fingers of one hand. At the disposal of the photographer 13 hardware buttons (including the five-navipad) and the wheel, which is located in front of the body, in the zone of responsibility of the index finger.
Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300 have five hardware buttons to the left of the LCD screen, which makes changing settings with one hand impossible. Total keys 13 (not counting the OK navipada inside), three are located next to the shutter button on the top panel, and the Fn button functionality appointed through the menu – on the front of the bevel.
Canon’s optical axis of the lens is closer to the center, at Nikon – shifted to the left when looking through the viewfinder. Nikon engineers a better approach, as allowed to put the battery compartment so that when mounted on a tripod accessed is stored (at least, if the area is small). For Canon, this trick does not pass, and it’s bad because under the battery cover is a slot for memory cards. In Nikon D3300 memory card is inserted into the slot on the right side of the casing.
In the first round, with a minimum margin is Nikon. The button layout – a matter of habit but little things like access to the battery and memory card, a tripod, a convenient switch sometimes play a role.
ROUND 2 CANON 1300D VS NIKON D3300. FUNCTIONALITY
The Canon 1300D mounted 18-megapixel sensor of its own production and the processor Digic 4+. They work for the values of the sensitivity up to ISO 12800. The Nikon D3300 uses a 24-megapixel sensor and Expeed 4 processor, the upper limit of ISO 25600. And it is – one of the main intrigues of today’s match. Whether the matrix of two years ago will be able to provide the technical quality of the image? The answer to this question will be in the fourth round, and now let’s see what our opponents inside.
Both devices are equipped with an optical viewfinder that displays 95% of the next frame. At a certain skill photographer can easily compensate for this feature, but if the lens focal length is constantly changing, no trimming on the computer can not do – it is better that a cut than to lose, feet or the spire of the building.
The picture in the viewfinder, Nikon looks a little bigger and a little lighter. Do not be confused by numbers in the specifications, where the increase in this chamber h0,85, while Canon – h0,8. Here it is necessary to recall the crop factor, which is the Canon h1,6, while Nikon – x 1.5.
The gates of the two chambers work out excerpts of 30 seconds. to 1/4000 sec.
AF System Canon 1300D nine-. In Nikon D3300 point 11. The difference is small, and a similar arrangement. Both cameras showed the strong focus on the subject in normal light conditions. It must be admitted at least sufficient functionality of its competitors in this field.
In low light conditions, Canon uses a built-in flash to illuminate the subject. At the Nikon has a lamp. To say that the performance of complex but bright blitz can scare, for example, a young child, so the decision Nikon engineers look more reasonable.
Canon 1300D speed burst shooting – three frames per second, at the Nikon D3300 – five, but both devices buffers are filled too quickly.
View footage and working with menu occur on the three-inch LCD screen with 921k. Pixels. They are embedded rigidly in the housing and are not touch.
Management of both chambers, on the one hand, provides maximum professional capacity, on the other – is designed to help beginners in the configuration process. Oddly enough, the Nikon graphical interface gives the impression of a modern and Canon designers work too dry and a touch of professionalism, the relevant class in the relevant camera in the amateur machine looks worse.
Canon 1300D is equipped with a module Wi-Fi c NFC, allowing not only to transfer your footage to your mobile device or PC, but also control the camera remotely. Unfortunately, the Nikon D3300 is no such functionality. Rather, it can be realized through the acquisition of an additional fee Wi-Fi outdoor unit or a special memory card with the wireless module.
Intermediate results. The difference in megapixels can be ignored, because the files will be reduced either to the size of the screen or for printing on amateur formats, although 30% of the advantage of Nikon will help hide the noise and improve the visual detail. The opponent in the corner of the ring has an argument in the form of Wi-Fi / NFC, but it is unlikely he will be as significant as the slightly better viewfinder, greater speed burst shooting and a large number of focus points. Nikon won this round on points, both cameras are about the same in features and yet is no clear favorite.
ROUND 3 CANON 1300D VS NIKON D3300. POWER
According to manufacturers on a single charge Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300 can do about 500 shots, and Nikon D3300 – 700. By the standards of mirrorless cameras is very good results, although it does not reach the impressive performance professional SLR devices. Unfortunately, both cameras can not be charged by USB.
Is 500 frames sufficient resource for a beginner? Of course, yes. Moreover, understanding the limited possibilities makes a person think about that and why he wants to photograph, as well as how to do it better. So disciplined film, and then – a small memory card.
And yet, in the third round, he defeated Nikon D3300. 200 frames are, by the way, is almost saturated day of shooting, for example, on a sightseeing trip.
ROUND 4 CANON 1300D VS NIKON D3300. THE QUALITY OF IMAGES
The decisive round. If you want to make your own conclusions, download from this link the files from both cameras, there’s the RAW and the JPEG raw. Some are made almost simultaneously and used similar lenses, 50 mm. The difference in framing two reasons. Crop factor in Canon h1,6, while Nikon – x 1.5. At telephoto, this situation forces useful to Canon, the wide-angle – for Nikon, but for the average range of focal lengths special role is not playing. The second reason – the survey was conducted with the hands, and repeated crop in such conditions difficult.
While the ISO does not exceed the limit of 800, both cameras show good results. Yes, the picture is different, but this is, by and large, a matter of taste.
Noise Reduction at higher ISO settings the Canon works effectively, but the default setting is too aggressive, because of what the flat areas look fine, but the fine details are lost. This confirms the processing of RAW-files taken from the underexposed. With three levels (ISO 200 becomes 1600) in the shadows unpleasant color noise have not spoil the image and detail is better than a JPEG from the camera, taken at ISO 1600. Working with red should also be recognized too rough: due to oversaturation of lost information . Of course, the intensity can be reduced in the device settings, but beginners hardly give it due consideration, is to advise them to develop RAW processing that gives you the ability to selectively compensate for the features of the device and the algorithms in terms of noise reduction and color reproduction.
100% crop. Left Canon 1300D, the right – Nikon D3300. Taken from underexposure 4 stops at ISO 200, and then added to 4 EV steps in Adobe Camera RAW. More examples and source files are available via the link at the beginning.
The ability to extract from RAW details in the shadows today becomes one of the criteria for selecting the camera because it allows the software to compensate for the narrowness of the dynamic range of matrices. NEF Nikon allows underexposure in three stages, but better to keep the brightness of the data, but the color is necessary to tinker, and it’s not just oversaturated reds. In the middle of the tonal range of colors appear distorted, there appears tinted, and it eliminates the difficult and affects the transfer of the shadows, because of which editing RAW.
ROUND 5 CANON 1300D VS NIKON D3300. THE LENS OF THE CAMERA FOR THE FIRST
Selecting the first SLR camera can become a path to a big picture. And if you have such plans, be sure to keep in mind that the machine – just fixing the light box, and the image makes the object for it. And in many ways it is the choice depends on the availability of the desired optics. By the number of proposals, both systems have a par (214, if not yet want to go to Hotline.ua).
To describe all the options – the country of employment, as the camera focused on beginners. However, there is one lens that is highly recommended to have as an alternative to the included 18-55 / 3.5-5.6. Of course, it is 50 / 1.8. Fixed focal length not only provides excellent picture quality due to the simplicity of the optical circuit. It teaches us to think before you press the Shutter button.
For Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300 are no restrictions, and it will work both versions, the old Canon EF 50mm f / 1.8 II and the new, Canon EF 50mm f / 1.8 STM.
In the case of Canon 1300D vs Nikon D3300 is different. A very attractive price for the old version of the Nikon 50mm f / 1.8 D AF requires the drive chamber (so-called “screwdriver”, and in its low-end phones do not have, ie focusing is possible only in manual mode, for a beginner It would be a problem). But the new version, Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f / 1.8G, is quite expensive, about 2000 UAH. more than asking for Canon EF 50mm f / 1.8 STM. The situation is similar to other “screwdriver” lenses.
WHO HAS WON CANON 1300D VS NIKON D3300?
Fanfare. In this fight, I won …
It should be noted that both candidates showed very good results. Both cameras are equipped with everything necessary for taking pictures in the class entry-level devices. Yet on points proved to be better than Nikon D3300.
Yes, in this camera does not have the module Wi-Fi, but does he really need? But some constructive solutions do give a certain advantage. Viewfinder. Most speeds burst shooting. Access to the memory card and battery when mounted on a tripod. Finally, a 30% gain in the number of pixels and 40% in the number of recorded images on a single battery charge. And most importantly: a bunch of matrix processor from Nikon provides the best signal to noise ratio at a sensitivity increase. Up to ISO 800, the results are very similar, but more Canon is about one degree. For Canon 1300D upper working abroad, perhaps, it is an ISO 3200, while the Nikon D3300 – ISO 6400. In addition, the Canon noise reduction system tends to blur the noise is stronger because of what affects small details.
ON POINTS TURNED OUT TO BE BETTER THAN NIKON D3300.
However, the camera is, as already mentioned several times, only part (and not the main) photographer arsenal. All lenses are determined. And from the point of view of Canon offer prices look more attractive, at least in the amateur segment. Universal zooms the Nikon production, such as 18-135 or 18-200 will cost about 2000-3000 USD. expensive.
