The Nikon D550, unveiled at CES 2015, is the first Nikon DSLR to feature touchscreen capability.
This camera is powered by a 24.2-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor designed without any optical low-pass filter, enabling it to produce sharper images. It is also equipped with an Expeed 4 image processing engine that helps to produce quality images in a wide variety of lighting conditions and situations. The camera has an ISO range of 100 to 25600 and a pretty decent maximum burst rate of 5 frames per second.
The touchscreen is clearly the highlight feature however; this 3.2-inch LCD touchscreen can be used to navigate camera settings with ease.
The Nikon D550 will be available in February in red or black.
