Key Advantages

The D5200 delivers high-resolution images thanks to its 24.1MP sensor which excels in detail and clarity. Its 39-point autofocus system ensures accurate focusing for both photos and videos, making it versatile in different shooting scenarios. The articulated LCD screen enables easy framing from unusual angles and convenient image review. With full HD video recording capabilities and manual controls, the camera satisfies both photographers and videographers. The camera’s ISO range and EXPEED 3 processor provide enhanced low-light performance and reduced noise. Compatibility with a wide range of Nikon F-mount lenses and accessories adds to its flexibility and adaptability.

Limitations

While the D5200 offers excellent image quality, it lacks an integrated autofocus motor, requiring lenses with built-in motors for autofocus functionality. The video autofocus during recording can be relatively slow compared to newer models. The camera does not include 4K video recording, which limits resolution for modern videography needs. The LCD is not touch-sensitive, limiting ease of menu navigation and focusing controls. Burst shooting speed maxes out at approximately 5 frames per second, which may not satisfy fast-action photographers. Battery life is moderate, requiring spare batteries for extended use on location.
