Canon PowerShot G5 X Mark II vs Nikon D5300

This is the cameras highlight! The camera produces images quickly and without any sort of lag, no matter how hard you push it. Use a high-end SD card as well to marry that processor to the speed of a quality SD card. The optical zoom is a 5X. Fair enough

Among the lenses you’re looking at, I’d definitely recommend the Nikon 200-500. I know it’s slightly shorter than a 150-600, but it more than makes up for it with greater sharpness. Even cropped to match the field of view of a 600mm, the 500mm’s images will look sharper than the 150-600.

6 kit zoom it's this combination of quality in size. That makes one inch compact. So popular and why Canon carries so many in its range, unlike the g7...

I found it to be reasonably sharp throughout its zoom range, but plagued by some rather extreme distortion throughout. This can be automatically corrected in-camera, even when shooting Raw, by enabling Auto Distortion Control via the menu.

They also gain 120 frames per second slo-mo. Now, it's not the sharpest, but it's a great thing to have the thing. That's really weird for me, when I'...

However, there are some features that are missing, obviously. The most important, to me, is the lack of real, in-camera autofocus. You know what I mean?

Depending on your choice of settings and usage patterns, it also has short battery life.

I find the battery life to be quite decent- I have gotten a couple of spares and always keep one handy. I did get the 18-140 kit lens based on the reviews. I was fairly satisfied with it for a while but did find I wanted more reach and ended up buying the 50-300 telephoto which I really do love and find I can get much better close-ups and detail than with the kit lens. I mostly like to take pictures outdoors of ducks, squirrels, birds and nature in general

Any recommendations for a decent kit lens or a wideangle zoom lens?(currently looking at tamron's 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD.. any cheaper alternatives available for this one

The video toolkit here is pretty basic. The G5 X can record at 4K at 30fps—a firmware update is coming to add 24fps by the end of the year. It also supports 1080p at up to 120fps, so slow-motion playback is an option.

I chose the option of a more affordable 18-55mm AF-P solo lens, its autofocus is fluid and it does not make noise, perfect for taking video. Stable and fast Wi-Fi during photo transfers to a smartphone. Up to now, I have not found any flaws. I am satisfied with the purchase

2 X, f-18, 2 to 8 zoom lens and with Raw shooting and a high degree of customization. G5X is a small camera with big features that will appeal to pros...

The D5300 has a high ISO range, Wi-Fi, and is supported for tethering in Lightroom Classic.
