Key Advantages

The Nikon D5200 offers a high-resolution 24.1MP sensor that delivers exceptionally detailed images. Its 39-point autofocus system ensures sharp and fast focusing performance in diverse shooting scenarios. The vari-angle LCD screen enhances versatility for composing shots at difficult angles or filming videos. Full HD video capability supports a range of frame rates for creative control over motion capture. The camera provides extensive ISO sensitivity, allowing shooting in low-light conditions with minimal noise. Lightweight yet ergonomic design supports ease of use and portability during long photography sessions.

Limitations

The Nikon D5200 lacks built-in Wi-Fi, requiring external accessories for wireless connectivity. It does not feature touch screen controls, limiting interaction options compared to newer models. The buffer depth during continuous shooting is moderate, which may restrict burst shooting in high-speed action sequences. Video autofocus during recording is contrast-based and not as fast or smooth as more recent hybrid AF systems. The camera uses the older EN-EL14 battery model, which has limited life compared to modern alternatives. Additionally, the absence of weather sealing reduces durability in harsh environmental conditions.
