Nikon has announced its fifth DSLR model since January with the new D5200, an update to the D5100 that includes features popular on Nikon’s more advanced D7000.
Unveiled on Tuesday, pricing has yet to be announced, but the camera is expected to ship by December.
“The new consumer-level DSLR shooter pulls a number of features from Nikon’s pricier D7000 camera, including its 39-point autofocus system (up from the 11 points found on the D5100) and 2016-pixel RGB metering sensor,” reports Digital Trends.
“Buyers of the new camera might want to consider investing in some beefy SDHC/SDXC cards and hefty external hard drive, with its new super-sized 24.1-megapixel APS-C sensor guaranteeing snap-happy photographers rapid memory usage with the large picture files the camera will be serving up,” suggests the post.
According to Nikon, the D5200 features a more intuitive user interface and shoots 1080p video at 60 fps. An optional WU-1a adapter offers remote shutter control and the ability to send photos wirelessly to iOS and Android devices.
The TFT LCD screen “flips out, twists and turns, making it more likely you’ll get the picture you’re after when shooting at arms’ length over the top of people’s heads,” notes the post.
“For those who prefer a dash of color with their camera bodies instead of the usual black, the Japanese camera giant is offering the D5200 in two other flavors — bronze and red.”
