Now these claims are bold, but the noise handling of the D5200 is slightly improved over what the D3200 can offer.The D5200 shoots 14bit RAW files vs 12bit on the D3200. Looking at this more objectively, the D5200 does have a new EXPEED 3 image processing which is claimed by Nikon to process noise a better than the D3200.

The maximum ISO figure is secondary to the way in which the noise is handled in the more normal higher range (ISO1600-6400) Truth be told though, the settings over ISO6400 are going to be pretty noisy and shooting at ISO12800 or indeed ISO25600 should be reserved for emergencies only. This is a setting that may interest those who shoot a lot in low light. Whether it is worth paying out for this, only you can decide. Having this function in camera makes things easier. Who will benefit from this in an upgrade: Those who shoot a lot of HDR images, or shoot in static situations with challenging lighting, such as landscape photographers.

This is of interest to those who create a lot of HDR work, but in reality it is an upgrade that will be of interest to few, but not many. The D3200 does not offer exposure bracketing whereas the D5200 offers exposure bracketing in camera.

With this in mind let’s look at the one of the common questions people are asking themselves. If you find that this is affecting your photography, then it really is time to upgrade. There are often logical reasons to upgrade your equipment, but rather than look at what the new camera will be able to do for you, flip it, look at what your current camera cannot do for you. The promise of you becoming a better photographer simply by flexing your credit card is a big temptation.The higher frames per second offered by the D5200 gives you a better chance to catch the action The major camera manufacturers spend millions of pounds worldwide on advertising campaigns and celebrity photographer endorsements etc. The bottom line is, you are constantly bombarded with reasons to upgrade. In fact, most of us have made several purchases when suffering from it. Most of us have suffered from it at one stage or another. It is one of the most dangerous diseases known to a camera owner. With the release of the Nikon D5200, should I upgrade from a Nikon D3200 (or D3100) to the newer, sexier D5200? Upgraditis.
