Nikon D3200 Preview




Here for the FULL Press Release:

The Nikon D3200 on paper looks to be an AMAZING beginner camera with a ton of advanced features.

First lets start with the NEW 24.2 megapixel sensor. I am not a big fan of such a large sensor in a beginner camera. This is going to make the RAW files HUGE even though they are compressed and only 12 bit. The ISO range is 100-6400 expandable to 12,800 which again is insane.

The video features seem to be pretty extensive. It will shoot full hd 1080P at 24/30 FPS but you also have the ability to shoot at 60FPS at 720. You do have manual exposure controls during video recording. One item I over looked before I made the video is the fact that it does have a microphone input jack. That is an amazing feature to have if you are looking to do interviews or capture better audio than from the built in microphone. I look at this to be a substantial addition to an entry level camera.

Overal this is a very feature packet beginner camera. If you already own a D3100 do not upgrade to the D3200, it is not the best step forward for your photography. But if you are new to the DSLR game the D3200 would be a great place to start. Like I always say, good glass is important so adding on a Nikon 35 1.8 would be advised.

I may pick one of these cameras up to create a shooting guide for all the people who will be stepping into a DSLR for the first time. It is possible that this camera could serve as a third angle for when I am recording interviews or photo shoots.
