Nikon - D3200 is an excellent choice for an entry level DSLR camera. Pictures looks great. Charge stays for enough clicks. Switching the lenses is not a pain area once you practice. I have come to know that even better pictures can be taken with this camera by purchasing next level lenses having 12-300 zoom level. That avoids switching lenses as well. There is no need to go for 5200 or 7200 if you know to take pictures on manual mode according to lighting at the time of the shoot (day/night). All that you might need to purchase to compliment is a great lens that is compatible with D3200.

I've used Nikon equipment for years (always with outstanding results) but several years ago moved away from DSLR for the smaller compact cameras. Purchased the D3200 with 18-55mm and 55-200mm VR II lens because I was missing my DSLRs but didn't want to spend a lot on a
high-end system. Am completely satisfied with the D3200. My first photo with a new camera is always a portrait of one of my dogs. . . see below.
I don/t think you'll be disappointed if you purchase this outfit.

Get This Kit ASAP

This is an amazing price for an amazing product.
Like one of the other posters here, I had moved to an advance point and shoot for a few years (Canon SX40 HS). I had done this for convenience and weight when I was biking. Although the results were quite good, there was only JPEG output which limited quality and "tweakability".
The first day with this I was very impressed. The weight with the 55-200 was not noticeably heavier than my P&S and not much bulkier with the
lens in the lock position. The combo of the body and the 55-200 makes for a great walkabout set up. The VR operation of the long zoom was equally impressive. The available detail is simply amazing. I attached
an image to show just how good this set up is. It was cropped, but still!!!!
Started many, many, many years ago with a Nikon FE, then moved to Canon. very happy to be back in the Nikon family!!
Get this kit while you still can at this great price!!!!!

The camera which comes with two lenses upto 200mm is great for mediocre skilled person like me. I have been using normal cameras for quite long and wished to shift to a decent DSLR and found this an apt choice. Great product and good stuff.

Researched cameras for months and bought the bundle package at Best Buy. The camera is very nice and was at a very good price point My daughter loves it and hasn't put it down. Beats the phone camera and it's great for beginners.

I had trouble figuring out the documentation as there are so many buttons on the camera. Eventually I figured some of it out and what I have seen so far is that the picture quality is excellent

This is the best price I can find anywhere for this DSLR camera. Used it to take photos when our kids went to ski school the first time at Snow Bowl. It takes very good pictures.

I was a little hesitant before buying this camera, as I knew nothing about DSLR. I am very glad I went through with the purchase. So far it has been fun experimenting with all of the controls and learning as I go. A little piece of advice though: don't delete photos on your camera unless they are clearly terrible/unusable. Images sometimes appear differently on your computer than they do on your tiny camera screen.

I am very pleased with best buy. I bought the camera for my daughter for Christmas. It was on sale and it was supposed to come with a camera bag. When she opened her present,the bag was not included. I went to Best Buy the next day and the salesmen were absolutely fantastic. They took care of the problem and while I was there I bought a sound bar. Thanks Best Buy. I have been completely satisfied with the service. I am going there tomorrow to buy another TV

I looked extensively on numerous websites for a camera that would meet my needs and photo habits, deliver a good camera for a reasonable price from a store or site that I knew I would get great service. Best Buy and the Nikon 3200 met my needs. Not only price, it was a store I could go to if I needed help or more equipment and it has GEEK Squad, a service I have used for my computer and have never been dissatisfied .
