[@jay9958]

I just picked one up from Facebook marketplace yesterday. It came with two lenses (18-55mm) (55-200mm) This is my first ever camera I’ve bought and I’m looking forward to taking some pictures

[@u_cube7707]

I will buy ine from marketplace too IS it worth it?

[@jimpodolski7871]

How do you like it? Does it take good backdrop studio shots?

[@brendanhoffmann8402]

I just got one of these to replace my old D3000... it is way better. Good enough to learn on. The seller said the flash was broken but it turned out to be a setting in the menu! So bonus!

[@hudgee]

I took forever painstakingly picking this camera out in 2013- and still agonized over it for a couple of years before I bought it. Good to know it’s still hanging in there! Thanks for the vid! 😎

[@user-uh6pc9ky4x]

Great concise and to the point vid! Thanks for your help!

[@lostjawa]

I’ve been using this camera the past 2 years was a hand me down from parents. Free camera and it’s pretty nice for how old it is!!

[@itsthehumidityyall8303]

I love my D3200. I’m still using it.

[@danielwilliamson7739]

Just bought a D3200 in mint condition with a shutter count of 8k for $134 as a upgrade from my D3100, which is a fantastic camera in it’s own right. Can’t wait to get out and shoot with it

[@Paulstluke]

Got me one with bag lenses and cables in great shape for $150, and it takes great photos and lots of cool settings,

[@TayStikkz]

This is the kind of camera I use, thanks for the video

[@TimCools_WithALongO]

I bought mine second hand as my first camera, with an 18-135mm lens, a carrying bag (admittedly not a great one but hey ho), HDMI-cables and charger, for 200 euros. Great bargain and I've got decent use value out of it in the almost 2 years since :)

[@jorgealbertomartinezortiz374]

I got mine in 2015 as new. 9 years later it still kicking. I paired it with a 35mm f1.8, a 55-300mm, a 85mm f1.8 and a battery grip to solve the pinky misplacement issue.

[@kantemirovskaya1lightninga30]

Thanks-my d3100 is failing and I grabbed one with sub 5k shutter count on ebay for 91 incl. shipping! I love it already and little new to learn!

[@ItsCaptainAllan]

I have used the D3200 to shoot the last ten videos on my channel.

[@enriqueherrera6630]

My dad left this camera with me before he moved out the house, I've been trying to get into photography ever since I found it so these videos are truly helpful, thanks a bunch

[@SavanahSchroeder-tr5ds]

Really enjoy your videos! It’s helping me do some research before getting back into photography. I have a Nikon D3200 I’m wanting to use again. What lens did you use for these pictures?

[@lambo7]

A great video, this has made my mind up for the D3200. I'm going to buy it in time for my trip to the Norwegian fjords. what lens would be good for that trip?? (not too expensive.) thanks (subbed)

[@bd048]

I bought mine late 2023. I had .a complete cleaning kit for the sensor and inner parts. I upgraded from a D40 and a D200. The D3200 body was $150. I already had lenses so I tried them and it was great. Maybe I had set a low bar for myself but I was happy with the D40 for 6 years so getting 4x the pixels compared to the D40 and 2x (actually a bit more) for the D200 this allowed me to upgrade for very little money. I was a professional film photographer from 1976-2008 (yes, actually a full time paid photographer) so I knew what I wanted. This for me was always my meager target. I Totally recommend it.

[@anotherangleUK]

Recently bought a D3300 the slight;y newer one. Brilliant cameras.

[@thao6237]

This video of you is the inspiration for me to pick up the camera I‘ve had for > 10 years now

[@rbl777]

I know eh

[@andy1or2]

Love that 3200...had it for years, then stolen ... great pics with Nikkor lenses ..!!

[@johnnyrotit844]

Great video and explanation. I own two of these cameras with a couple lenses and a 35mm. They are amazing. However would this camera be better than a Lumix G85 just because of the megapixels? Is it an automatic win for photography because of that?

[@gdjaybee742]

You can get a battery grip. They're dirt cheap and supper light. It should help you with balancing with front heavy lenses. I myself just acquired a D3400 for $115. i got very lucky on ebay.

[@mikenow3050]

I was given a d3000 with 2 lenses a few years ago. Saw a D3200 in a pawn shop body only for £89 in the UK. Couldn't resist. In great condition with extra battery and charger. Takes beautiful pics.

[@mikenow3050]

P.s. its shutter count was 332!

I’ve had this camera since it came out and want to use it now 10+ years later. My question is how did you get the picture of the dolphin splashing out of the water, what are the settings? Thanks.

[@valvelez4281]

What do you recommend, Nikon D3200 or NIKON COOLPIX B500?

[@brandondaniels9471]

Thanks for the video. Just won an ebay action which included a bundle of 3 D3200 bodies (with respective shutter counts of 10K, 14K, and 4K!!!) for $256 total. So basically $85 per camera which should serve as great backup bodies. Has about 85% of the dynamic range of the D850 (which is my primary camera body).

The D3200 can get good video, This camera is a beast most people just don't invest in quality glass. Secondly, in the hands of a experienced person amazing things can come out of that camera. Thirdly, where 1080p may not be 4k software can upscale it to 4k.

[@peteg22397]

Aside from cosmetic wear and tear, shutter count is the main thing to look at. ~5000ish is a really great low number that will have plenty of life left in it. If you don't see a shutter count listed, chances are it's taken so many pictures that the person selling it would rather not say, which is obviously a good reason to avoid

[@frozenhouse5362]

Dose the d3200 have internal memory where you can take pictures without a memory card?

[@srr1887]

Dude. Mention any phone out there, it wont even have a chance if u use raw

[@yoepvh9250]

When it comes to actual cameras vs. Smartphones it boils down to: you can't beat physics. The sensor is larger, the glass in the lens is larger, has more groups and elements, coatings, CRC and all that. Smartphone photos came a long way, and I really like my pixel's camera, but it's nowhere near a match for any half decent camera.

[@nulla9601]

@@yoepvh9250 yeah, I thought first that "budget" camera's (around 300-400 bucks) wouldn't be that much better than a flagship smartphone but I put some pictures I took side by side and the difference is pretty huge. The camera has a lot more detail which is very noticeable when you zoom in on the pictures. The only situation where my smartphone would win is in low light situations.

V good camera....not good in low light yet it takes good photos wildlife portrait... video Full HD but auto focusing is not good.
