About this model
The Nikon D5200 is a mid-range DX-format (APS-C) DSLR that sits above the entry-level D3200. Its 24.1-megapixel sensor captures detailed images with room to crop, and the 39-point Multi-CAM 4800DX autofocus system tracks moving subjects well. The 3-inch vari-angle screen lets you compose from awkward angles, and the camera shoots at up to 5 frames per second. A mode dial and dedicated buttons give quick access to exposure settings, while Scene and Effects modes keep it approachable for newer users. This listing is for the camera body only, so you choose your own lens.
