Day 1. Introducing the camera
Today we are starting the “One Week with Nikon D5200” project. No, this is not just a great test of the camera. This is a test of the camera with real shooting conditions. Every day for a week, we will publish new chapters in one large article on the Nikon D5200 in different situations, as well as additional accessories that will help unlock the potential of this DSLR. But we'll start by exploring the Nikon D5200 .. View prices and buy Nikon D5200. The Nikon D5200 replaces the 2011 D5100 . This is not to say that the D5100 is very outdated during this time, but the market needs new heroes with higher characteristics. And this D5200 boasts. Let's see what Nikon engineers are prepared to offer us a little less than for 30,000 rubles - that’s how much the camera costs now.What's inside?
At the heart of the camera is a 24-megapixel CMOS sensor with a size of 23.5 x 15.6 mm. Are there too many megapixels? Could they be causing a noise increase at high ISO? We are interested in this issue as well as future camera buyers. Therefore, in the coming days we will test the Nikon D5200 in low light conditions and when shooting scenes with a large number of small details. In the meantime, take it for granted - the resolution of the matrix in the Nikon D5200 is simply huge.

What is outside?
I have a simple and reliable way to identify the glancing “chips” of the camera: I put it on my desktop, and colleagues passing by no, no, and they will pick it up, twist it and express a couple of their comments. About Nikon D5200 I heard the same thing three times in a row: “Is it a DSLR? Wow, how small! ” And let the bearded adherents of photography of the last century assure me of the opposite: I am deeply convinced that an amateur DSLR should be compact. Otherwise, it becomes a burden that amateur photographers forget at home, do not take on travel, are too lazy to wear around their neck ... And as a result, they miss excellent shots. A counter-argument in such disputes is always lunges against the ergonomics of small cameras. I admit, my little finger periodically slides from the handle of the Nikon D5200. I’m not very comfortable changing the settings while holding the D5200 with one hand. But let's not forget that this is still not a professional SLR for shooting a serious report, and the price of the camera is appropriate. Uncompromising in terms of ergonomics, cameras are many times more expensive.
