Before I start this particular review, I'd first like to state that I'm a novice when it comes to the photography realm. My primary purpose for this camera is to take it around the globe on my travel adventures. I decided that it was time to get a "big boy" camera and after researching the past few months, I decided on the d3200. I've only had it a month, but thus far this camera is a GIANT LEAP FORWARD from my Sony Cybershot. The manual and overall operating system for the camera are completely user-friendly and I've been able to navigate just fine through the various settings, modes, etc. I've only used it to photograph my Siberian Husky in various settings, but plan to use it on a trip to Thailand next month. I shall update the review when I come back. And if the shots of my Husky are any indicator, I'm more than pleased at the results of this camera. While the model may not have all the bells and whistles with the basic lens that accompanies it, you can always graduate to a better one in the future. Do yourself a favor and check this bad boy out. It's definitely worth it!

I've done film photography both in the military and as a civilian. I needed a DSLR that would allow me the flexibility that I was accustomed too with my film SLR and not break the bank. The NIKON D3200 fit the bill quite nicely. The DSLR format gives me the flexibility of interchangeable lenses, a choice of auto or manual focus and a wide ISO range to work with. I did find myself somewhat limited with the obvious lack of support for bracketing but it wasn't a deal breaker. I have yet to shoot video with the camera but it supports full HD video and both NTSC and PAL output formats. You can use a variety of accessories with the D3200 like GPS, external microphones, remote shutter controls etc. Overall, the camera is an excellent first step into the world of DSLR at a reasonable price point and from there sky is the limit in terms of Nikon's product line. Give it a try, I think you'll like it.

I've never had a really good camera before. This is fantastic. Easy to use. With 24.3 megapixels, you get great quality reproductions. I have been taking pictures of Victorian buildings in downtown Dubuque (which has many) and making 8X10s of them. They are all unbelievable. I would recommend this camera to anyone.
