Nikon Coolpix 3200 review: Nikon Coolpix 3200

 

Intro The Nikon Coolpix 3200 eases the first-time buyer's transition to digital photography by combining lots of fun features that are easy to use with acceptable 3.2-megapixel image quality, a pocketable design, and an affordable price. There are...

Decent image quality; autofocus-assist lamp; simple operation; solid macro capabilities.

No memory card or rechargeable batteries in the box; few manual controls; slow shot-to-shot time with flash; no diopter adjustment; slow autofocus in dim light.

This easy-to-use Nikon is a good starter camera for the new digital photographer, but it lacks most manual controls more-experienced shooters demand, and both the memory card and the rechargeable batteries cost extra.

Nikon Coolpix 3200

 

Nikon packs a lot of features into the 3.2MP Nikon Coolpix 3200 that make it an easy-to-operate entry-level compact for the novice but not a camera for the enthusiast.

Focuses well in low light. Easy to use. Abundant scene select/scene assist modes (with guides).

Slow. No shutter or aperture priority modes. No selectable ISO. Unimpressive video mode.

Our lab test results revealed the Coolpix 3200 to be slow, especially with a 6.5-second recycle time. Its 3.2MP sensor was able to resolve 975 lines—low compared with other 3MP cameras we've tested but still within the range of what we'd consider...

The good? Well, there is that ergonomic handgrip for handling ease as well as the automatic protective lens cover so users no longer need to bother taking off and replacing the lens cap. As a point and shoot entry-level digital camera, we welcome the...

Nikon Coolpix 3200

 

There a whole lot of other cameras like the 3200 out there -- how well does it fare? Find out now in our review

Compact body ; Very good photo quality -- in good light ; AF illuminator ; Very good LCD display ; Impressive macro ability ; VGA movie mode ; Interesting "blur detection" feature ; Many scene modes

Noisy images in low light ; Redeye ; Sluggish shot-to-shot performance (after two shots are taken); camera is locked up while camera finishes writing to memory card ; Aside from white balance, no manual controls ; No exposure information in playback...

All in all, the CP3200 is a good camera for outdoor photos, but if you do a lot of indoor shooting, you'll probably want to find a camera with an ISO setting that you can lock.

Nikon Coolpix 3200 Review – 001

 

It turns out Pentax isn't the only manufacturer building non-removable memory into its cameras. Nikon is also getting into the act with its Coolpix 3200. This point-and-shoot camera has 14.5MB of permanently installed memory, along with a slot for...
