Nikon D3200

Nikon's new entry-level DSLR has been updated with the arrival of the D3200, a more sophisticated option to its popular budget 3100. Jon Sparks offers professional advice, hints and tips on how to get the best from this versatile camera. The D3200 offers the highest pixel count from an APS-C sensor. The 24.2 million pixel count offers greater post-capture cropping potential, ideal for relatively new DSLR users. It has the option to add an affordable Wi-Fi transmitter (to connect the camera to smartphones and tablets for remote shooting and uploading image to social networking sites). The camera offers a speedy Expeed 3 processing engine, low noise, and a range of frame rate for Full HD video recording. A guide mode is especially helpful to beginners, handholding through the basic functions and offering advice for setting up shots.
