Excellent camera. I have always had Nikon and have been very pleased, this camera is no exception. A bit complex for someone that has never used a SLR type camera. The instructions do not contain enough information on how to use the older manual lenses but I like the flexibility of a manual lens and...

Just getting used to it, but so far I am very happy with all of the features and ease of use. After being disappointed by a D3200 that I ordered on Amazon I was totally happy with the shipping and receipt of my new camera from EBay.

Just shy of two years after the D5100, Nikon is releasing the successor to its popular DSLR model in a bid to counter its greatest competitor, the Canon EOS 650D.

New 24-Megapixel sensor; Quality build with pivoting screen; Low image noise up to 3200 ISO; Helpful illustrations; Stereo recording in video mode

AF in LiveView still too slow; Rolling shutter in video mode; Menu interface could be improved with clearer; more coherent choices; Not very different from the D5100

The Nikon D5200 fills the high-resolution gap in the company's middle-spec DSLR space by squeezing a brand new 24-megapixel CMOS sensor into the new model. It was inevitable, really; such a resolution gap didn't really exist until Nikon launched the 24-megapixel and apparent entry-level D3200.

Good picture quality; vari-angle LCD screen; decent autofocus system with motorised lenses

Experienced sharpness issues with first review sample body (not confirmed as an official; recognised issue as yet); banding in shadow areas when pushing raw file EV; poor movie clips with terrible interlaced tearing in playback; no touchscreen; lack of quick-access buttons on account of vari-angle...

Having spent most of 2012 updating its full-frame DSLR range with the addition of the D4 , D800 and D600 models, Nikon has shifted its attention back to its APS-C DSLR range with the launch of the upper entry-level D5200.

Impressive 39-point AF system; Continuous shooting speed of 5fps; Stunning image quality; Intuitive graphic user interface

Slow AF point positioning in Live View; Lags when previewing creative effects in real time; Noisy kit lens performance

The Nikon D5200 with its 18-55mm lens kit is a high-quality introduction to the possibilities of a digital SLR camera.

I've spent a long time looking for just the right camera, trying many along the way. I started a couple of years ago with a basic SLR and then onto a few high end compacts. More recently I bought the Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ200 bridge camera, thinking this would be the best of both worlds - easy to...

Great Features; Great Picture Quality

Do not buy this camera!!! I bought it 3,5 years ago. It worked really good, but just after the warranty was gone (half year because I bought the extension of warranty) the shotter was broken. A chip of the plastic piece went to the sensor and scratched it.

Price: $917 body; $1179 lens (from Livewire advertiser) Impressive combination THE LOW-DOWN This 24-megapixel DSLR is for ''advanced beginners'', according to Nikon.

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.
