About the Nikon D5200 DSLR with 18-55mm VR Lens

The Nikon D5200 is a mid-range DSLR that sits between the entry-level D3200 and the advanced D7100. Its 24.1-megapixel DX-format sensor captures detailed images with good low-light performance, while the 39-point autofocus system (inherited from the D7000) tracks moving subjects reliably. The 3-inch vari-angle screen lets you compose from unusual angles, and the camera records Full HD video at 1080p. This kit includes the AF-S DX 18-55mm VR lens, a versatile everyday zoom with Vibration Reduction for sharper handheld shots. It's a great choice for photographers stepping up from a basic DSLR or compact, offering room to grow with Nikon's F-mount lens range.
