Unbelievable entry level camera
I purchased this camera in June. I began with the D100, D200, and D300 which are all excellent camera bodies and I still use them all. I put the Nikkor 70-200 F2.8 on this camera to see how it would work and it is excellent, I tried the Nikkor 500 F4 and it is amazing what this camera is cabable of. You don't have all the options with the 3200 as with the D300S but with the 24 megapixel sensor in the 3200 your photos are breathtaking. I put the 70-200 back on the 3200 and it will stay mounted for wildlife photography this fall.
Amazing camera for the budget consious. We photographed some elk in Wind Cave National Parks and this is one of the images with the 3200 and 70-200. Attached the GP-1 and this is an excellent tool for outdoor photography. This is a great set up (D3200 and GP-1) for under $1000.

There Are Great Features In A Small Package
I upgraded from a Nikon D80, I found the D3200 much lighter and user friendly. With the D80 you had to either have a good understanding of setting up your camera. I found the 3200 excellent for those who are "First Timers" or have little understanding of a DSLR buy using the "Guide". This camera is fast enough by far for action photography, but I found that with the D80 all I had to do was hold the trigger down for multiple pictures (Great at the 2011 Rolex 24 hour race at Daytona) where as the D3200 forces you to "trigger" every time you want a picture. Because all of my lenses work great with this camera unsuspectingly, I decided to go with buy a 500 zoom lens. The picture detail is outstanding at 24MP but I found some of those files were to large to put onto Kajijii. An 8MB file with the D80 turned into a 18MB file. That I can live with as I will just keep my D80 for such tasks. Like the RED color you decided to use for the body it's gotten a lot of attention from other camera enthusiasts, some of them were looking to buy one after hearing the specs and trying a few shots. Most people as myself included were VERY impressed by the price. Oh Yeah ..... Video, the option of taking either pictures or video is a great plus and the videos turned out to be quite high quality. I would like to add a stereo microphone but have been unable to find one on the market as of yet. The option of ISO at 3200 is a plus. Well thats about it. I think you mostly hit a Home Run with this little camera. Ha Ha tried to upload some photos but this site is limited to 5MB per pic all mine are over 8MB. Sorry.......

Nice one for it's category
I am using D3200 for more than one month now and for what i shoot i think is more than enough. I have been using 55-200m lens without vr and still receiving great images even at night if you give the shooter more time.I bought body only as i had a previous 18-55m lens which a sold for a few dollars and never used it. I am waiting a 18-105 vr lens which i think will be enough for everyday photography and ever get sharper images and better quality. With this one i have achieved to shoot macro and portrait as if i wrote that those where taken with a fx people would believe it. Worthy and practical would recommend it for everyday usage.

Amazing Camera For its Value
I love this camera i got it a few days ago and have taken over 1000 shots. I would recommend this camera to any beginner even professionals.

Amazing Camera for any Photo enthusiast
I bought this camera a month ago as a birthday present (to myself). Immediately i started taking photos of almost anything just to get the feel. In Auto mode, it is more reliable than any sony, canon, or even compact nikon's that i have used. Breaking my leg two weeks ago in a sailing accident, i have been playing around with the manual features and have started to take better and better photos in numerous environments. With the help of the "guide" feature, i am able to choose what type of photo i am trying to take and learn the settings that the camera automatically adapts to.
I highly recommend this camera if you are either first trying out a DSLR, want to learn more about photography, or even have tried other cameras and just want something that works in any environment and takes a photo with a truly clear photo.

this camera is perfect for me, i'm starting in dslr photography and it is already my passion,but i'm too young to buy it by myself. $700 is a little to expensive for a 13 year old girl so my mom wil get me this one for my birthday on september this year so i was wondering if by then the nikon d3200 will get a little lower on its price as the d3100 did. and if you know about any offer or bundle, anything please answer:) thanks!!

Depth of field is a function of the lens, the d3200 does not have depth of field prevue. It does have a guide mode that softens the background. I think this is what you are referring to, it gives the backroung a blurred effect (known as bokeh)2 months ago

Last post on May 22nd said red D3200 in 1 - 2 weeks. Can you be more precise now?
I hate to harp on the subject, but I really need to know if you expect the red D3200 to be available and in stores by June 10th? I wanted to buy this before I left on a huge overseas trip along with a couple of new lenses.
I wish I'd never seen the red one because I was all set to buy the black one, but there was a delay at the store for black. Hard not to want to wait for the red one now when red is your favorite color.

We’re already shipping the D3200 in RED. Please verify with dealers for availability.
In the June 2012 Popular Photography (page 18) it states "The D3200's built-in pop-up flash can be used for i-TTL flash control with a variety of Nikon's SB-series Speed-lights - a nice touch at this level". Is this indeed true that the built in flash can act as a commander to fire remote flashes? Perhaps I'm missing something. Thanks.

Answer:
The D3200 has no built in commander for controling flashes, so the mag was wrong. however, it can control a flash that is in SU-4 mode but it will be manual only, the only way to control flashes with ittl is to use either a SU-800 or SB-700 / 900-910 that have the commander function.
As of now, I can only find the kit D3200 + 18-55mm lenses, but I'd like to have the D3200 + 18-105mm.
Is the kit D3200 + 18-105 mm ever going to be available in store/online? or do I have to go for the D3100 instead?

I'm going to start in photography soon and I wondered if the D3200 was a good choice for me.
This is probably the mother of all stupid questions but, I didn't notice controls for aperture and shutter speed. Does the D3200 have that? I apologize in advance for my MASSIVE ignorance if it does.

Best Buy offers 2 kits that seem to be really good for the money ...
Comes with camera, regular kit lens and a second lens but not sure which to get ...
The one with 55-200 or the one with 55-300 ... Plus bag and other acco.
I'm leaning towards 55-300 ... I want it for nature photos, fast, clear ... Auto focus ... I don't trust my own eyes (were glasses for distance#.
Any input. I currently have a Canon S1IS and i'm looking to get the D3200 as a major upgrade in clearity, speed ... to get the pics I miss in low light #shaded) areas, like guide mode too. Consider myself a beginer.

With the AF-S 55-300mm lens you will have more zoom range that with the 55-200. The right selection for a lens will depend a lot on the type of photography that you are interesting. Some photographers look for faster lenses (large aperture ex. f/2.8), wide angle, Telephoto, Macro or zoom lenses. Please visit our website and use the lens finder tool in order for you to make your selection base on your needs:http://www.nikonusa.com/Nikon-Produ...?
