Key Advantages

The Nikon D5200 offers excellent image quality with its 24.1 MP sensor, suitable for both amateurs and enthusiasts. Its articulating 3-inch LCD screen provides versatile shooting angles for creative framing. The camera supports a wide ISO range, enabling low-light photography with reduced noise. The 39-point autofocus system enhances subject tracking and focus accuracy. It also features built-in HDR and time-lapse capabilities for versatile shooting options. The D5200 includes in-camera editing tools and supports RAW format for extensive post-processing.

Limitations

While offering many features, the D5200 lacks weather sealing, limiting durability in harsh environments. It does not support 4K video recording, which is standard in more recent models. The continuous shooting speed maxes out at 5 frames per second, which may be limiting for fast-action photography. The camera’s autofocus during video can be relatively noisy, impacting microphone audio quality. Its battery life is moderate compared to newer DSLRs or mirrorless cameras. The absence of a built-in GPS module requires external accessories for geotagging.
