A Digital Camera For Both Amateurs and Professionals

By Jack Sooltor


It appears that each year new digital cameras are being presented to both everyday consumers and experts alike. As I used to shoot sports photography, I'm aware of the battling going on between Canon and Nikon. Whereas you might invest $ 2500 on a DSLR some 5 years ago, today you could oftentimes get those same functions and then some in a $ 700 DSLR. As my present DSLR is having problems, I am now in the market for a amateur DSLR which will use the Nikon lenses which I own.

It is nice to obtain the latest and best innovation and not have to. stress over buying another camera in a year because your existing DSLR just became obsolete. Due to the fact that I am a Nikon guy, a buddy recommended that I rent the Nikon D90 camera. What I came to find out in doing some research is that I would pay a couple hundred dollars more for a Nikon D90 yet could get better features in the Nikon D3200.

So generally this is what I discovered regarding the Nikon D3200 DSLR. It has a 24.2 megapixel DX format sensor. In my opinion the megapixel race has gotten out of hand. Before my present digital camera began to having electrical concerns, I was producing some great images at 6 megapixels at the highest setting. If I had any concerns whatsoever about the quality of an image coming from the camera, I could shoot in raw mode and with that additional data could hopefully produce a workable image.

With the DX sensor, the Nikon D3200 will multiply the lens that you attach to the camera by 1.5 x. This is terrific if you are shooting bird or sports photography because your 300mm lens simply became a 450mm lens. Nevertheless if you are attempting to take a image of an 8x12 living-room or small bathroom, your wide angle lens will additionally have that multiplication factor. I have that exact same problem with the Fuji S2 Pro digital camera that I'm making use of today. That 28mm lens which just became 42mm does not work well in confined rooms.

The Nikon D3200 shoots at 4 frames per second, so it will work well for beginners doing sports photography. If you attach the WU-1A WiFi adapter which is sold separately, your partner could be modifying images on his or her laptop as you are taking photos. In addition, a very good function of the D3200 is the ability to take 1080P HD video. I consider this an extra bonus that you will most likely get some usage from. Due to the fact that the ISO range is 100-6400 with a Hi ISO of 12,800, reduced light scenarios should not trigger too many problems.

The bottom line is that you could pick up the Nikon D3200 body with an 18-55mm lens which is included for about $ 700 and take another $ 100 off for sales that run every now and then. Another ver cool thing about this DSLR is you could choose between the traditional black color or by all means check out the outstanding red D3200.
