Nikon has unveiled the D7200, an upgrade of it's mid-range DSLR, the D7100. The new model features a 24.2 megapixel sensor (up from 24.1 megapixels on the D7100), a new EXPEED 4 processor, improved 100-shot buffer, new AF system, and built-in WiFi and NFC.
Like its predecessor the D7200 is built around a backside illuminated APS-C CMOS sensor and does not have an optical low-pass filter. The absence of a low-pass filter means images should be sharper but photos may occasionally suffer from moire effects. Maximum continuous shooting speed remains at 6fps but an upgraded buffer means the D7200 means it can fire 100 high quality JPEGs, 27 12-bit Raw files or 18 14-bit Raw files in a single burst.
The autofocus system has also been upgraded and the camera now offers a 51-point AF system with the ability to shoot in low-light at -3EV. Video options include 1080p HD at 30/25/24p (or 60/50p in 1.3x crop mode), 'zebra stripes' to confirm exposure, a built-in stereo mic with 20 step adjustments, and a time-lapse mode with exposure smoothing.
Other key features include a 3.2in (8cm), 1,229,000-dot LCD, weather-sealed magnesium alloy body, dual SD card slots and built-in flash. The Nikon D7200 will be available from 19 March. Pricing not available at press time.
