Nikon D5500 DSLR: Meet Nikon's First Touch-Enabled DSLR With 24.2 MP Sensor

Nikon's D5000-series DSLRs are built for advanced beginners, photographers who are still learning but keen to experiment with creative techniques and effects.

The company might not see touchscreen to achieve great outcomes, though Nikon is very excited about its new touch-control display. These are common enough on compact system cameras, and Canon's been using them on its DSLRs for a while but, this is the first time Nikon has embraced touch-screen control in its D-SLR range.

Do feast your eyes on the all new touch DSLR from Nikon.
