Nikon D3200 reviews:

In Nikon D3200 preview, pocket-lint.com website says that this camera is nice and compact. D3200 is a small camera, a little too small for those with larger hands, feeling smaller than a rival like the Canon EOS 550D.

The Nikon D3200’s large 24.2 MP sensor delivers rich detail, allowing you crop or print large images, keeping memories alive without a loss of sharpness. The fast and powerful EXPEED3 image processor provides high-speed operation, producing remarkably images with excellent colour reproduction.

The new sensor is not only capable of capturing top-quality images but also brings new heights to entry-level movie capture. As well as 1080p capture, the camera also includes a 3.5in microphone port to capture stereo sound with an external microphone.

The Nikon D3200 takes the lead from its predecessor (D3100) but has a few improvements to ergonomics which are very helpful to the every day shooter. While there are limited number of direct control buttons, commonly used function can be accessed via the “i” quick menu button.
