Conclusion
The Nikon Coolpix 5200 is most likely to appeal to those consumers searching for a point-and-shoot camera with a small compact size and style, few external controls, and simple menus to allow and expedite menu changes. The color menus are attractive and simple to navigate with the four-way controller, and the 1.5-inch LCD is a bit small; however, the overall small size of the camera makes this perhaps inevitable. The 5.1 MP CCD is large enough to produce high quality photographs, and when paired with a movie mode frame rate of 30 fps, this camera becomes an impressive and attractive choice for those users not concerned with spending more to look better. The manual controls that do exist work in co-existence with the Auto mode, do not overwhelm the user, and are easily accessed either through external controllers or the simple menu structure. 15 Scene Settings allow for even more point-and-shoot options, illustrating that even though this camera is meant to be used as such, that doesn’t mean that the consumer must relinquish all control over image options, an appreciated gesture that is repeated throughout the entire system structure of the Nikon Coolpix 5200.
