If you are still unsure whether to buy the D5200 or the D7000, this review article will help you decide. The firs camera is actually one of the newest from Nikon and it was launched last January 2013 which means that it bears the most advanced technology by far. But the second one should not be discounted.
The D5200 is aimed at "advanced beginners", its resolution sensor is higher, and the articulating LCD display and movie mode are also better. The D7000 model is aimed at the more serious photographers and more expensive. Also, there are many other major differences between the two, and below is a comparison of these most significant differences.
Below is a comprehensive review of the two Nikon Cameras:
Sensor - With the Nikon D5200, you can produce breath-taking and lifelike photos with its 24.1 megapixel DX-format CMOS sensor. On the other hand, the D700 comes with a 16MP DX-format CMOS image sensor capable of capturing detailed images as well. Both have the famous NiKKOR lenses but the first one has the EXPEED 2 image processing engine, while the second has the faster EXPEED 3.
Display - Both gadgets have 3-inch monitors with 921k-dot resolution for a detailed and clear display. What makes the two cameras different in this department is that the D5200 has an articulated monitor while the other one has a fixed monitor. With an articulated display, this makes shooting in difficult angles and self-portraits more convenient.
Design - The D5200 may not be weatherproof but it can still withstand a little moist and a few droplets. It has an entry to mid-level design, durable, and overall, a great quality. The other Nikon has a lot of professional-style features and this includes its magnesium alloy body construction. It is more durable with its weather and moisture sealing.
Viewfinder - The D7000 may be the winner in this department because it has a higher quality and an incredible 100 percent frame coverage which means that what you will see is what you are going to capture. But the D5200's pentamirror with 95 percent frame coverage is still great for its price.
Continuous Shooting - The newer model is able to shoot continuous 5 frames every second, where as the Nikon D7000 could shoot at 6fps. It is a very tiny difference, but if you are shooting sports events, then the newer cam would be the smarter choice for you.
Final Words
The D5200 was just released, cheaper, and is perfect for entry level, while the other has better features making it ideal for the serious ones. Also, it has been superseded by the D7100 so you might also want to check on that. Choosing for the right one depends on how you intend to use it.
