Pros: Ease of use, very resistant, very light, very well workable raw files especially working in eectr

Cons: Poor ISO Tightness

Opinion: This is my first camera, so it won't be easy to write an objective review since I'm attached to it with a lot of affection; I have taken it everywhere in my travels and in every situation, taking full advantage of the sensor's capabilities and with a good lens, it is able to produce really remarkable shots, obviously in RAW. For those who want to start I highly recommend it, although it is a camera body with many years behind it it is still reliable and compatible with a myriad of lenses and accessories. If you find it at a good price, don't miss it in 2026 too!

Pros: File quality, reduced weight and size, ease of use, intuitive menu, information and automatisms that help the beginner

Cons: High iso, plasticky, small viewfinder, burst and responsiveness

Opinion: A great camera to start with, light, very small and pocket-sized without a lens, with a 35mm f1.8 DX it becomes almost perfect both in terms of quality and practicality. I had 2, it's a camera that you hang around your neck and don't think about it, to always carry around so you never miss the opportunity for a shot. Although it remains a slow camera, with a reduced burst that loses speed after a few frames and does not excel in responsiveness, I almost never lost the shot. It is a room that needs good light to give its best, it is absolutely not a room that is good for high iso! You have to shoot during the day and always use the flash (hotshoe) whenever the situation requires it. The room takes beautiful photos, as long as you respect its characteristics. I recommend it for beginners, for those who want a forklift room or for those who want a fun and effective room

Pros: Very good file quality, acceptable ISO sealing, battery life, lightweight, economical, well-built, easy to use.

Cons: No autofocus calibration, non-tropicalized, entry level autofocus, dust infiltration in the viewfinder.

Opinion: My first camera ever, bought new way back in 2016, love at first sight. She was the one who made me passionate about this beautiful world that is photography. I immediately found it easy to use, comfortable and light. The battery has good battery life, but it's best to have a spare one for more intense rides. I've owned it for almost 8 years and the body doesn't even have a scratch, it's really sturdy and well made. The ergonomics are great and the handle has a very good grip. The menu is simple and intuitive. Although I used it as a complete beginner at the beginning, with the kit 18-55 lens, it has given me great satisfaction, it can return excellent and well workable files. When combined with high-performance lenses, you can have fun for very little money. The sealing at medium-high ISO is contextually good, but without exaggerating. Personally, I've never gone beyond 1600. Being an old entry level you should not expect the top as far as autofocus speed is concerned, it also has few focus points but all in all it is more than usable. An annoying aesthetic problem that I found, after not even two years of use, is that dust has infiltrated the viewfinder, even if it does not ruin the photos, even though I have always kept it clean and used with care. In summary, perfect for starting to photograph with a quality reflex, better if associated with good lenses. Until it stops shooting I'll hold it carefully.

Pros: Quality images 'well defined and with the right lenses excellent colors, decent ISO hold, light, price

Cons: Definitely entry level but still not too plastic, small viewfinder, 12-bit raw, mediocre autofocus

Opinion: I had 2, the first with a problem with the light meter (photos always overexposed) that I discovered to be quite widespread on this machine, the second with only 2500 shots at a very low price, this time with a slightly better light meter .... problems apart makes excellent photos and jpeg good even indoors without flash up to 800 iso, with discrete lenses like the 18-55 VRII or the 18-105 VR are sharp, bright and with beautiful colors so I suppose that with more serious lenses can achieve excellent results .... of course those who have serious lenses probably do not mount them on a D3200 ... overall 8.5

Pros: Paid very little (socket used), respectable camera, good quality image; durable battery

Cons: Focus: it's not a sniper

Opinion: My lens was to have an SLR, I would have liked Pentax but this happened and I'm happy all the same. Taken used by a friend who had not used it for five years, about 9000 shots, with af-s 18-55 kit lens (it is not the maximum detail but it has a good VR), enriched with 35mm and 50mm (more will come). I'm having a lot of fun with it and it's the one I use the most: I like to hear the noise of the mirror and shutter when they come into operation... ah what a pleasure the REFLEX! Too bad that the mirrorless are supplanting them but this one makes great photos and if you are not happy, in post-production you can do miracles. The D3200 is simple to use, holds well in your hand and is very reliable. The battery lasts a long time but I recommend always having one in stock (two, or more, in the case of mirrorless). Another pity is the fact of not having an internal AF motor and not being able to mount the lenses without autofocus motor or the latest AF-P lenses, but only AF-S to have the autofocus that in itself is not amazing. The dynamic range doesn't seem great to me but it's doing very well, anyway. My advice is to learn to use it immediately in manual focus because sometimes the autofocus makes a fuss (or it is not the maximum precision) and then if you become good use the rest in manual. Anyway, as far as exposure is concerned, it automatically does everything well and does it really well! Now, it is said, it is an "Entry Level", yes it is true but it forces you to use your head more and this is, perhaps, a good thing: the photo is made by the photographer not the camera! Happy clicking everyone!
