Advantages of the Nikon D3300:

  • 6 more megapixels, and no optical low-pass filter. When cropping a lot, the D3300 should have a slight advantage
  • Slightly larger sensor, nothing drastic but it all helps with low light performance
  • 2 more auto focus points
  • 5 vs 4fps
  • Full HD video has more frame rate options
  • Almost twice as long battery life!
