“I’m trying to decide between the D5600 and D7200 for astrophotography. The movable screen plus touch seems to be pretty nice for it I was wondering if anyone has used either for this? I’m pushing towards the 5600 atm”

The Nikon D5600 DX-format DSLR camera listed here comes with a Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR lens. This lens is able to get landscape and starscape images at a wide perspective angle at the 18mm mark. The D5600 DSLR camera has a Manual Mode setting which will allow you to set it for star-studded landscapes and is ideal for low light shooting. You can also capture high quality starscapes with the Nikon D7200 FX-format DSLR, however, th D7200 camera does not have a vari-angle touch LCD like the Nikon D5600 camera. The technique you want to display in your sky images will determine which camera and lens combination is right for your needs.
