We’ve just posted our 20-page review of the Nikon D5200. Nikon’s ‘advanced beginner’ APS-C DSLR offers several features that should also appeal to enthusiasts, such as a 24MP CMOS sensor, a 39-point AF system inherited from the D7000 and an Auto ISO system linked to the focal length of the lens. Add an articulated rear LCD and the ability to output uncompressed video and you’ve got the makings of a very promising camera. Does the D5200 live up to its potential in real-world use?

We’ve added the Nikon D5200 to our database of studio comparison images. We’re in the process of running a production D5200 through our studio tests, so wanted to present the results of our standard test scene. These test shots are also available from other reviews and the standalone tool, which can be accessed via the ‘Review Comparison Tool’ link in the Reviews menu on any page of the site. We’ll be adding a complete set of studio and real-world sample images to our previously-published preview in the coming days, but in the meantime, click the link below to see how the D5200 stacks up to the competition in terms of JPEG and RAW image quality. 

Our comparison tool allows you to compare our standard test scene at a variety of camera settings. First select a primary camera from the pull-down list in the gray central panel, then select the camera(s) you’d like to compare it to. Changing the ISO or image mode at the top of the page will affect all the selected cameras. Changing either parameter immediately above one of the zoomed-in previews affects only that specific camera. Click on the image below to open the comparison tool interface (opens in a new window).

Nikon D5200, 24MP DSLR with 39-point AF gets US launch

Nikon USA has announced it is releasing the D5200 launched elsewhere in November 2012. The 24MP upper entry-level DSLR gains the 39-point AF system from the company’s higher-end models. The camera will cost around $899.95 with the Nikkor 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 VR kit lens. It includes an articulated 920k dot LCD and is compatible with the clip-on WU-1a Wi-Fi module. We previewed it back when it was launched in Europe so, if you still don’t know what makes the D5200 tick, the preview should cover it.

Just Posted: Six page Nikon D5200 hands-on preview

Just Posted: Nikon D5200 in-hand preview. We’ve been able to spend some time with Nikon’s latest mass-market DSLR – the 24MP D5200. At first glance it’s nearly indistinguishable from its predecessor, the D5100, but beyond the sensor, it also gains the 39-point AF system and 2,016 pixel metering sensor from the D7000. This represents a significant step up for this class of DSLR. It also has the option to join the ‘connected camera’ set, with the option of a clip-on Wi-Fi unit. Is this enough to keep the D5200 relevant amongst its smaller mirrorless rivals?
