Limitations

The Nikon D3200 does not include built-in Wi-Fi or GPS connectivity, limiting wireless sharing and geotagging functions. The autofocus system, while decent, is basic compared to higher-end models with more focus points and advanced tracking. The camera does not have a built-in flash commander mode for wireless flash control. Its continuous shooting speed is limited to approximately 4 frames per second, restricting fast-action photography. Video recording lacks headphone jack monitoring and external microphone input. Additionally, the camera's LCD is fixed and does not support tilting or articulation.
