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.
