I have my Nikon D3300 Camera, I would appreciate it if a Fellow UHH who has had experience with the Nikon D3300 might post some of their images here on UHH, so I may compare theirs with mine, to see what progress I might be making as a relative beginner to DSLR Photography, now going on 2 years. As soon as I learn how to post my images here, I will post some of mine to get critiqued. Thanks

Here's a search link for images from your camera model. You'll tire of viewing images before you see them all, 119,570 in the initial results.

But, none will have any direct impact on your photography. If you're interested in ideas on your photography, post one or a few images and be sure to store the original.

It's a good question to ask. Your camera is probably the most entry level of all of Nikon's DSLRs. But they say you can still make great photographs with it.

A Photographer can make an award winning image with any camera. The technology is irrelevant, the technician's eye behind the viewfinder is what matters.

Your first sentence is true but technology isn't an irrelevant issue. If you don't have certain high-end gear you are not going to capture certain shots. Bird photography comes to mind. As does macro, stop action, low light, etc.

My wife has a D3300 with 18-140mm lens. She never takes this lens off. Here are some examples of what she can do. The panorama was stitched and the waterfall was taken with a D750 and HDR stacked. I included the waterfall to show you that even though it is a much more expensive camera, the quality is no different. It is up to the photographer on how the pic is composed. Keep clicking and you will get some surprising results.

Nice stuff. Did she ever capture any birds in flight?

Not yet, she did try some eagle shots in Alaska but needed a much longer lens. She seems to have a good eye for composition, just needs to increase her boundaries .

I am a relative newby. I have been using the D3300 for several years and liking it. Here is my favorite recent photo. I didn't have time to think about settings, etc as I drove up, clicked a couple of shots and the Kite flew off. If you look up any of my posts, all the photos came from this camera.

I really dislike the term entry level. A camera is a tool. If the manufacturer outs out one that can't take good photos, shame on them. I have a D3400 and it is among the lightest DSLR on the market, if not the lightest. The kit lenses packaged with it are perfectly fine for most amateurs, even if there are those here who would try to embarrass them for using them.

The 3300, and 3400, or any brand "entry level" camera is a good, relatively inexpensive camera; many will keep these for years to come. However, a lot of people will "outgrow" these cameras, and wish to upgrade, which means they have to either put the camera in the closet, use it as a backup, or sell it. My point is that more money will have to be spent for their particular upgrading needs. I would guess that is one marketing goal of Nikon, Canon, Sony, Etc., Etc. When the GAS attack comes, you will be digging deeper into your pockets.

Exactly, I found that I ran up against the D3300's limitations within 6 months of taking up the hobby. I found a D90 at a yard sale with a 50mm f/1.8 attached for a couple hundred, though quite a bit older and 12 MP it had more features (such as commander mode, in body lens drive & HSS) than the D3300, which like you said then became the backup body. The D3300 at 24 MP still takes great images, it's just very limited in many other areas.
