Whilst the Nikon D5100 is a superb entry-level camera, there is always room for improvement.
Well. of course, file size has become the measure of all new cameras recently, particularly since it's sibling, the nikon D800 launched a few months ago offering a massive 36 MegaPixel file size. Whilst many of us probably couldn't tell the difference between between say a 22 MP file and a 36MP file, the new Nikon D5200 will have to step up to at least 24Mp to remain credible in it's class.
The Nikon D5200 should also be able to offer a quicker burst speed, perhaps doubling the current 4FPS. If that could be combined with an inbuilt motor for no AF-S lenses, and a faster shutter speed, up to 1/8000, the D5200 would become a pretty awesome action camera.
The tiltable monitor was a really useful innovation when it came out on the D5100. It is especially useful for shooting video. However we could hope the resolution will be improved.Movie makers might ask for improved AF tracking in live view and a higher frame rate - perhaps up to 50 or 60 FPS for better quality.
The new D800 has blown the opposition out of the water with its ISO settings. It can get usable images shooting in a coal cellar, so Nikon will certainly be expected to better the current ISO available on the D5100 from 25,600 to at least 102,400. Offering more focus points would also be useful - eleven just isn't enough these days.
Although we can program a function button to give direct access to ISO control, perhaps the D5200 will have a set button for it. And perhaps a Depth of Field preview button too. And whilst we are on functionality, theEffects modes could be positioned better within the menu options.
At the top of the camera, a full 100% frame viewfinder would be good and, although the pop up flash is satisfactory, it isn't the greatest. Room for improvement here we think - and adding built-in wireless flash control would be a real plus too.
Finally both storage and power could be improved. Two SD memory card slots marks a camera out as Pro kit andthe EN-EL14 rechargeable battery is the same used by the D3100. It lasts for roughly 300 shots, which isn't really enough these days.
