Helpful Guide Mode, Full HD vid with external mic, Excellent picture quality
Slightly pricey, Flash can pop up needlessly, LCD screen could be better
The Nikon D3200 is a little on the pricey side, almost edging it into the mid-range, but great if you're a DLSR beginner looking for a friendly camera that offers stunning picture quality. It's very slightly let down by the quality of the LCD screen, but...
Ultrahighresolution, 24megapixel sensor, Compact and lightweight, Shoots 1080p full HD video with manual control
Overall image quality no better than lowerres cameras, Huge resolution means huge files, Sluggish autofocus in Live View and Movie mode
The entry-level Nikon D3200 has a few tricks up its sleeve that make it super-easy for beginners to use, plus some high-end specs like a mega-high-resolution sensor that you won't find even on some pricier cameras. It fits 24 megapixels into a compact and...

Overall we had a good time with the D3200. It's a fast snappy fun camera with a few pet peeves like no auto exposure bracketing and the convoluted menu – things that even cheaper DSLRs and point-and-shoots do better. Of course we can't forget the mono-mi...
Compact, comfortable and highly portable body, Good ergonomics, with even more well-positioned external controls than the D3100, Slightly larger, more comfortable handgrip with better shutter position for easy access with forefinger, Quick and quiet sh...
Some users with larger hands (or those used to bigger DSLRs) may find camera and controls too small, Mediocre results with kit lens; soft corners and noticeable geometric distortion, Movie record and Live View buttons are now split up, with one on top ...
We've been fans of most Nikon entry-level digital SLRs since the D40 debuted back in 2006. As the latest addition to this popular line, the Nikon D3200 increases the resolution significantly with a 24.2-megapixel CMOS sensor. Do consumers and novice ph...
Good video and images, Plenty of resolution for crops, Light and compact
Quirks in video start process, Some noise at higher ISO, Distortion Control feature limits burst frames
While the D3200 may be Nikon's entry-level DSLR, its 24.2 megapixel resolution sensor makes it the highest resolution cropped sensor camera in the entire Nikon fleet. With its predecessor carrying only 14.2 megapixels it's clear that Nikon chose to go f...

24-megapixel APS-C sensor, High-quality stills, 4 fps and full HD video at 30 fps
Kit lens doesn't do the sensor justice, Noisy videos with high ISOs
Nikon is to be lauded for offering a 24.2-megapixel DSLR for less than 700 bucks. This is first and foremost a still camera, and as such does a very solid job. It is clearly an entry-level model without the sophisticated tweaks enthusiasts crave such as...
