Data Sheet

Capture tack-sharp photos during extreme action:
high-density 39-point autofocus
Imagine a scene where the
position, movement and
expression of your subjects are
exactly as you envisage them.
No matter where they are in the
frame, the D5200’s high-density
39-point wide-area coverage
autofocus system is designed for
tack-sharp capture at that exact
moment. The camera’s powerful
autofocus system empowers the D5200 to take sharply focused
pictures in a variety of different situations. Whether you shoot
stationary subjects, candid photos or dramatic action, this camera is
ready for them all. For the most powerful detection, the 9 AF points
in the center feature cross-type sensors, and unique to Nikon,
3D-tracking uses the 2016-pixel RGB sensor to detect and memorize
the color of your intended subject and track its movement using all
39 AF points. The power to capture challenging, dynamic action at its
peak is now yours, thanks to the D5200 and its level of performance.
Accurate results even in difficult light:
2016-pixel RGB sensor and Scene Recognition System
The D5200 is designed to help you capture
images as your eyes see them. Thanks to
Nikon’s exclusive Scene Recognition System
and an incredibly accurate 2016-pixel RGB
sensor, the camera analyzes the color and
brightness information in each scene at a high
level of precision. It automatically determines
the most appropriate values for auto exposure,
i-TTL flash control, autofocus and auto white balance (AWB). The
result: pictures that more closely resemble the scene in front of you,
just as you see it.
Be ready for any opportunity:
approx. 5 fps continuous shooting
Get the right composition at the right moment. The D5200 delivers
a versatile continuous frame rate for use both with the
optical viewfinder and live view mode. With
cameras that use an electronic viewfinder you
can lose sight of quickly moving subjects.
However, when shooting dynamic action
through an optical viewfinder, you can clearly
identify and capture fast-moving subjects at up
to approx. 5 fps, even when panning the camera.
An approx. 3 fps option is also available, which
can be a more appropriate speed in certain situations, such as
capturing natural facial expressions. The D5200 employs a newly
developed high-speed and highly precise sequential control
mechanism. When you shoot with live view, the mirror is held in the
up position during image capture, thereby giving you continuous
shooting that is both smooth and quiet, which can be a significant
advantage in situations where silence is required.
