So glad I found this video, I've had this camera for more than 10 years and it's been sitting on my shelf for a very long time. I finally picked it up the other day and now I'm doing research on how to even use it! I've learned a lot with this short video so thank you very much 🙏
@pinkhatphotography Can you go more into details on how to take pictures of nature, travel, etc! I’m going to be using this camera for that. Also best editing ie: i have apple mac lap top! Imovie, and photoshop editing how to 🙏🏼
My D3200 sat on the shelf for 10 years....until I watched this person show the right settings for good pictures. It works! My other camera is a TZ70...takes excellent pictures ..set it to AI ...takes excellent pictures every time....not into turtle vision... Good job explaining how to set up the d3200.!
This was my first DSLR. I've taken some decent images with this camera paired with the 35mm f1.8 prime during my travels. I switched to mirrorless last year.
@@PinkhatPhotography I was pleasantly surprised of how good the images are that come out of the Fuji straight out of camera. I rarely need to edit any of them. 90% of the time, I carry the Fuji with me. It's just more fun to shoot with. When I need superior AF, I bring the Sony. It takes super sharp images, especially with a prime lens.
Thank You for this video. Really helpful. Would this camera be good for making RUclips videos for beginners? Or would a standard iPhone 14 be better for 1080p video? Haven’t found any information on this subject.
I've subscribed! Keep you the great work. I need to practice weekly. Can you do a series, ex. nature, animals, portraits ( single & group) sports and etc.😊
Hi, i would like to take sweet 16 pic of my daughter outdoor. What time do you think is best and the exact setting. It's a shame I have this camera for years and haven't used it. I really appreciate your assistance!
Thank you for the great video! Wish I would have seen it before I bought a 128 gig sd card instead of the 64 gig you recommend...can I use the 128 gig sd card anyway? Or will the 128 sd card create problems? Thanks for your time and help. Cheers!
im going to my friends wedding soon, they borrowd me this camera and asking i could be the photographer. said yes ofc, but think for me that dont know anything about cameras that maybe using my phone (s23 ultra) would give better photos? or could i leave the camera on auto and jpeg fine?
Tbh if you don't know the camera might be easier to run the s23, phone cameras have come a long way. Especially if you aren't printing any of the photos

This was so helpful! Thank you! I can't seem to be able to change to auto focus mode in the settings though, it stays greyed out. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!!!
@@PinkhatPhotography no, I did check that bit :( is it possible that some models (even if it's the same model number) have different capabilities? (Sorry if that's a silly question, I'm very new to this) :D
Nick what would be your Canon and Nikon picks in 2022 as the most affordable "professional" grade versions of both having a budget of around $800.00, glass not included.
The Nikon d750 is a fantastic full frame dslr, on eBay they sell for 500-700 and in that same price range is the canon eos 5d mark III, which I have some experience with, that being a very positive experience lol, the reviews for both are pretty positive too!
I just got one of this with a 35mm and a 50mm lens and I want to start shooting portraits but before shooting people I’m going to practice on animals and just items out door, but I know for the type of pictures I’m trying to achieve most of the battle is going to be editing and I was wondering if you’d make a video on how to edit your photos, I have a Mac I’m going to start using probably to edit. Thanks
Ciao, scusa se scrivo in italiano ma non conosco bene l'inglese, la mia 3200 ha un problema al mirino ottico, è sfuocato. Ho provato con la regolazione delle diotrie ma non cambia niente, sapresti dirmi da cosa dipende??
I shoot car photography with my Nikon d3200. Just gif it and I’m new to cameras. Are there any lens I can get that would be good for the camera that is $200 or less?
That isn't a super easy question to answer, well it is but there is no blanket solution. It depends on if its inside outside, time of day available lighting. I usually recommend aperture f8ish, iso 100 outside and 800-1200 depending on lighting inside, sometimes faster. With aperture priority just be careful your shutter speed doesnt go to low or the photos will be blurry. so like if youre using a 50mm lens dont go under 1/50th of a second, 85mm dont go under 1/80th, 35mm dont go under 1/30th of a second. I hope that make sense and helps!
@@PinkhatPhotography Thank you for that, the venue will be in a mansion and its grounds, there will be a wedding photographer there but as I’m the brides dad I was looking to take some photos myself as well, the lenses I will use are 50mm and 18-105 each on a Nikon D3200,once again thank you for your advice
Appreciate your response there! I think I managed to figure out. Only works on actual screen. Doesn't work on my laptop or computer but did work on my monitor when I unplugged the system unit
Affordable means many things. I recently bought an excellent condition Nikkor 50mm 1.4 lens for less than $200. If/when I would ever want to sell it, I can get that much money for it. The yongnou 50mm will not sell for a good price. Lastly, i just can't believe that yongnou glass is as good as Nikkor.
At 80 bucks the yongnou takes absolutely amazing photos, and for most applications l, regarding folks wanting to get into photography with a budget in mind, it doesn't need to be that extra 5-10 percent better to match Nikkor.
@@PinkhatPhotography but also in natural light but my problem is just skin color over all picture are best but skin color like pigment or over texture please help it's my first camera buying on my pocket money
Hi im late to the party but eh.. I bought this camera like 8 years ago or something and never really got into it so i lent it to family Now i need to learn how to use it for Products photography but im sooo lost So ye, an idea for a video :p good stuff tho, gooday
Why buy the D5100 which it is a much lesser camera? This is 8mp less than the D3200. If you get that perfect picture you want to blow up more than a 8x10, a 24mp image will do it much better. This is no opinion, it is fact. That is why I chose the D3200 over the D5100. I don't care about the little screen being moveable.
I mean yeah, if you don't care about the screen movement it doesn't matter. At 8x10 you're not going to see a difference in 8mp, I've printed a ton of images from a 6mp Nikon d70 at 8x10 and they look just as clear and sharp as my 16mp images and my 24mp images. The d5100 has more options when it comes to video because of that screen and since it's generally cheaper on the used market that leaves more budget for lenses which are the most important part of your kit.
Thanks! Yeah no there really is nothing wrong with the d3200, I know more than a handful of pros that got started on it, and I love the one I have, a lot of my advice on older cameras is aimed at bang for the buck and stretching a budget

So excited to hear that!!!
Thank you!! Could I use this inside grocery stores, warehouses, and in office with the 15-55 lens ?
I think it would work well as long as the lighting is good!
@@PinkhatPhotography sounds great! Thank you so much for your help!!
I have this camera for years and still learned new things lol. Thanks (:
Of course!
This was my first DSLR. I've taken some decent images with this camera paired with the 35mm f1.8 prime during my travels. I switched to mirrorless last year.
Which mirrorless did you go with
@@PinkhatPhotography I got the Sony A6400. Also got my wife a Fujifilm X-T10. Love those Fuji film simulations.
Fuji definitely does digital right! How do you like the a6400 I have an a6100 I love!

Definitely working on it! Lol trying to get those videos going for this summer!
Hello again @pinkhat Photography I think it was answered! I have the 18-55 leans and need the 35mm 1.8! Thanks!
Is it worth getting I'm thinking about getting one to replace my Nikon d5100
Personally I think the d5100 is a better camera
@@PinkhatPhotography I picked up a Nikon d7000
Hi, i would like to take sweet 16 pic of my daughter outdoor. What time do you think is best and the exact setting. It's a shame I have this camera for years and haven't used it. I really appreciate your assistance!
Sunset is always best for this! I'd aim for f1.8 100 iso and adjust speed for exposure!
Thank you for the great video! Wish I would have seen it before I bought a 128 gig sd card instead of the 64 gig you recommend...can I use the 128 gig sd card anyway? Or will the 128 sd card create problems? Thanks for your time and help. Cheers!
I havnt tried one that big yet, I can ask around though!
Thanks for responding..I tried it out and seems to be working ok..I will keep you informed. Cheers!

Is your lens on manual focus by any chance?
@@PinkhatPhotography no, I did check that bit :( is it possible that some models (even if it's the same model number) have different capabilities? (Sorry if that's a silly question, I'm very new to this) :D
Very helpful thanks!
Question I just purchased my camera and I noticed when I go back to look at my pictures, the background flicks black-and-white.
Do they look that way when you upload them on your computer???
@@PinkhatPhotography no, just thru the camera
great video. Do you think a $200 dollar for a used Nikon d3200 is a good price? because is all I can afford.
I just purchased one on eBay today for $239 after tax and shipping. If you do enough searching you'll be able to find one
I think that's a pretty good price!

@@PinkhatPhotography I appreciate your response, nothing like experience to guide you with so may choices out there.
No problem at all! If you can find a d810 around that price range in would definitely jump on that!
This was very helpful, thank you!
You're welcome!
Poco m4 pro 4g camera best or this camera?
Couldn't say I don't know anything about the m4 camera
How would I edit photos from this camera? Is it iPad friendly, or would I need a laptop in order to edit photos? I'm new to digital cameras..🤪
I'm sure an ipod would work, I use a laptop for everything
Why do you use raw on your settings? Could I use fine? Or is it best to use raw when shooting?
I use raw for editing. If you don't want to edited or can't edit fine is perfectly okay
Wow ! Great video !
Thank you!!!
Which wide angle lens do you recommend for this camera?
I really liked the sigma 10-20
I just got one of this with a 35mm and a 50mm lens and I want to start shooting portraits but before shooting people I’m going to practice on animals and just items out door, but I know for the type of pictures I’m trying to achieve most of the battle is going to be editing and I was wondering if you’d make a video on how to edit your photos, I have a Mac I’m going to start using probably to edit.

I have a couple videos on editing in Lightroom. Lightroom is my go to, my videos aren't super in depth but I'll definitely make more!!!

I will look into it!
May I know how can we able to do half press button in order to focus into the subject without using af-lock
I usually half press and then take the photo so I don't have to use focus lock
I shoot car photography with my Nikon d3200. Just gif it and I’m new to cameras. Are there any lens I can get that would be good for the camera that is $200 or less?
For cars I'd recommend like a 10-20mm or a 24mm prime, sigma makes one that's affordable
@@PinkhatPhotography thanks so much! I am looking right now. There are so many sigma prime lens. Which one were you specifically talking about?
I was talking about the sigma 10-20mm 3.5, for primes I usually go with yongnou for nikon
@@PinkhatPhotography thanks so much! I will look into youngnou
Absolutely!!
How did you get your f stop 1.4 my only goes F4! Thanks!
It totally depends on the lens
What would your settings be for wedding photography
That isn't a super easy question to answer, well it is but there is no blanket solution. It depends on if its inside outside, time of day available lighting.

Is there a way to use an external monitor for d3200 as a screen then use shutter as well?been trying to figure out for months but can't find any.
I don't have any first hand experience with it but I found this

Appreciate your response there! I think I managed to figure out. Only works on actual screen. Doesn't work on my laptop or computer but did work on my monitor when I unplugged the system unit
How do you reduce white noise with external mic ?
Post audio editing
are there any grid lines on the Nikon d320
I believe so
I use your setting,why my image goes black??
Shutter speed might be too fast
Very nice camera I love it I wish to have one cos I want to run a RUclips videos
Thank you! The d3200 takes decent video!
What’s the best affordable crispy quality lens I can get for the D3200?
I really like yongnou on Amazon, they make really great lenses for pretty cheap
@@PinkhatPhotography thanks for your response!

How to put the pic in the computer
SD card reader
I have no idea how can I use it because the pictures is good but skin texture is not good it's like pigment or over texture
Iso might be high? You can email a photo to me and I'll look and see what you mean!
Iso is Auto
It might be cranking it up in low low light then
@@PinkhatPhotography but also in natural light but my problem is just skin color over all picture are best but skin color like pigment or over texture please help it's my first camera buying on my pocket money
Shooting at high iso can cause that issue
How do you take pictures
What do you mean? Like what settings, camera lens?
Guys what about shuttwr speed and f3.8
Like using it at f3.8?
I don’t know why ISO and WB will not show me to set and also I don’t have AF-C on my own setting
You might have to turn auto iso off and out it in manual mode. I'll look at mine when I get home
