Great camera, even with flaws
16 of 18 found this helpful The Nikon D5300 is one of the best camera values a mid-level photographer can buy. The camera sensor has more power than the kit lens can utilize, but even so the image quality is fantastic. Not a fault of the camera per se, but the RAW format NEF cannot be read or used by Photoshop CS5, which is what I have. They first have to converted to Adobe's proprietary format which is relatively simple, but it's just an unnecessary step that is inconvenient. The camera I purchased on eBay unfortunately was a gray-market one, so be careful. This is not to say the camera is not a genuine Nikon, it is. But, it didn't arrive in this country "legally", and will not be serviced by Nikon should you need it. If you are looking at buying a Nikon camera on eBay, make sure the original box has a "U" on the UPC bar code, and the serial number begins with a 2 or 3.

Good System For The Price
2 of 2 found this helpful I purchased this system to replace a very cheap 3 year old system which lost its night vision, and that had a lousy motion-sensing process. I bought the hybrid system because I needed 2 additional cameras but didn't want to do all of the cabling. Unpacking the system I was very impressed by the quality of the 2 wireless cameras: Aluminum housings and great build quality, quite hefty for their size. The picture quality of these cameras is superb, but more on that later. The wired cameras, though plastic, are far better than the cheap ones on the market and have a great picture. The night vision is so bright that you have to turn down the brightness in the setup process. The system does have it's negatives however. The biggest one is the wireless range. The claim that it has a 500'range is patently absurd, even "open-field" which is disingenuous to begin with because who mounts these systems in an open field. In the real world where the signal must penetrate walls the maximum distance you can expect is 30'-40', and that is to receive a 2-bar signal. If that signal falls to 1 bar the picture quality degrades significantly. Another fault is the recording schedule: You cannot chose to simply not record during certain periods, it's either constant record or motion 24/7. The last negative I will bring up is the spotlight on the wired cameras. It is active 24 hours a day with no option to turn it off other than always off. It's a silly, easily corrected flaw where it turns on when the night vision LEDs come on. Also, although the reason for it is a deterrent to an intruder (it is quite bright), its brightness washes out the subsequent video recording. My suggestion is to turn them off permanently in programming. Although not a function of the system per-se, the smart phone app is simply not reliable at all. It has a propensity to not connect to your device (more often not than positive). IF it connects then the video stream is pretty good. I haven't had the opportunity to try the audio to/from the w/l cameras so I cannot comment on that function.
