Limitations
The Nikon D5300 lacks an optical viewfinder with a 100% coverage, which can limit precision framing for some users. It does not support 4K video recording, restricting video resolution to Full HD 1080p. The absence of in-body image stabilization requires reliance on lens-based stabilization. Its body design may feel slightly bulky and less ergonomic compared to newer mirrorless models. Battery life, although decent, can feel limited for intensive video use or extended shooting without extra batteries. The camera does not feature a touchscreen interface, which limits some user interaction simplicity compared to modern DSLRs or mirrorless cameras.
