Camera Test: Nikon D5200
Nikon has made a compelling DSLR in the D5200. If you like the convenience of an articulated LCD screen and are invested in the Nikon system, it's basically your only option other than the D5100. But that is hardly a limitation, given that the D5200 performs well and delivers very fine images.

Cant comment just yet, but this camera is certainly on my "Wishlist" I currently use a D5000 and the D5200 is the obvious upgrade for me.

Nikon D5200 DSLR Review
The D5200 follows Nikon's D5100 and offers a new sensor with higher resolution (24MP instead of 16MP in the D5100). The new camera has an APS-C-sized CMOS sensor and uses a fast and reliable AF system with 39 focus sensors, including nine cross-type sensors.

Consequently, the compact D5200 packs some ‘big camera' specs, giving it broad appeal from entry-level to enthusiast. Converts are probably also going to like the colour of our test camera, which is a metallic-look red finish that's actually very classy in a similar way to the Pentax K-30's blue.

Nikon D5200 Review
The Nikon D5200 seems to be a unique combination of features of earlier Nikon models. Housed inside the body of a D5100 is a high-resolution 24.1MP image sensor from the D3200; the auto-focus 39-point system module from the D7000; and the Expeed 3 image processing engine from the professional grade...

- Class-leading noise performance at high ISO sensitivities
- Very good default JPEG settings
- Articulated rear screen

- Auto ISO selection can be linked to lens focal length,...
Cons:
- Slow AF in live view and video modes (compared to mirrorless APS-C cameras
- No real-time aperture adjustment in live view
- Relatively small image buffer limits burst capacity in Raw-enabled modes
- Soft video output at default settings

Nikon D5200
The Nikon D5200 is a lot of camera for the money, and though it's aimed at advanced beginners in terms of image quality and capabilities, it's not too far removed from DSLRs geared for more serious photographers.

- with extended range up to...
Cons:
- Slightly slower than average autofocus speeds

- Optical viewfinder is tiny and cramped
- Special Effects (accessible from Mode dial) are limited (just seven)

[REVIEW-NIKON D5200 DSLR and NIKKOR 18–300MM LENS]
This 24 megapixel DSLR is for "advanced beginners" according to Nikon. The internals, such as sensor, image processor, auto focus and auto exposure are similar to the D7000, while the externals, such as viewfinder and body material is not quite up to big brother standards.
