Going to give my new D5200 a workout Saturday morning. Played with some of the settings tonight. I all ready like the movie mode, I don't have to carry my canon v 500 all the time. I'll try later in the eve for night shots.

Check out Rob Sylvan's book "Nikon D5200 - From Snapshots To Great Shots" available from Amazon - an excellent practical reference to getting the most from your camera.

I got mine earlier this year, like it a lot. I got the "Nikon D5200 For Dummies" from Amazon, a very good book, very clear, covers everything.

I've had a D5200 for over a year now and love it to death. After years of film, canon dslr's, it is my holy grail. I can crop to my hearts delight and still have detail. I can tilt the screen for all kinds of previousl neck bending or impossible shots. I gave it back button focusing. It can take 3 auto bracketed shots for HDR. In low light shots like night skylines when autofocus fails, you can go to live view, zoom in, focus manually, zoom back out and bingo! The only way to go up now is full frame, but correct me if I am wrong, they don't have articulated screens. This is the top of the line for me.

The full frame D750 does have an articulated screen - a very useful feature IMHO.

Thanks, now I have a new way up! ...except that the D750 t is still 24mp too. I would want a full frame with more mp than the D5200...probably coming soon, a 36mp Full Frame with articulated screen. Right now the only reason though would be the low light superiority, but I am really geared to trying to capture low light situations, the twilight hours, night time exposures, so the noise problem is a BIG reason to go Full Frame.
