Key Advantages

The Nikon D5200 provides excellent image quality with high resolution. Its ISO range supports shooting in low light with minimal noise. The articulating LCD screen gives users flexibility in composing shots from diverse angles. The 39-point autofocus system enhances focus accuracy, especially with moving subjects. Video recording in 1080p Full HD offers cinematic results for multimedia creators. Additionally, integrated features such as HDR, Active D-Lighting, and built-in editing enable creative control without requiring external software.

Limitations

The D5200 does not feature built-in Wi-Fi, requiring optional accessories for wireless connectivity. Its viewfinder provides only 95% frame coverage, which may affect precise composition. Continuous shooting speed is limited to 5 frames per second, which can be restrictive for fast action photography. The camera lacks a touchscreen interface, which is common in more recent models for easier menu navigation. Battery life is moderate, typically accommodating around 500 shots per charge. Some users might find video autofocus performance less smooth compared to newer mirrorless models.
