Huh? Run that by me again, your last sentence. What's the difference between D and G by the way?

Just google this out :)
 

Is it worth to upgrade from D5100 to D5200? :think:

Personally I don't think it is that much of an upgrade over the D5100.

As a D5000 user the D5200's video mode is what attracts me the most. However, I was hoping they would have given it 1080 60p video rather than 60i. And hopefully we can change aperture during video recording/live view mode with the D5200.

What I would really like to see on a camera that sits in between the entry D3XXX line and D7XXX line, is more direct access controls (ISO, WB, Image Quality etc.) in a compact light weight body. Something with lots of external controls without the bulk of something like the D90 or D7000.

Grays of Westminster Glossary: AF-D and AF-G type Nikkor lenses

AF-D
aperture_ring_lock_200.jpg

The AF-D type Nikkor lenses have a conventional mechanical aperture ring (indicated by the arrow to the right). If the aperture value is to be controlled from the body of a compatible Nikon camera the aperture ring must be set to its minimum value (highest f/ number). To prevent accidental movement of the aperture ring from its minimum value the ring can be locked in place by a small switch adjacent to the ring (indicated by the arrow to the left).



AF-S

The AF-G type Nikkor lenses lack conventional aperture rings; the white dot seen close to the edge of the lens barrel is the lens mounting index mark.

Direct access control of ISO/WB/Shutter in a compact light weight body made me thought of 1 camera. X100 :D

Yup, if Fujifilm can do it with their X-Pro 1 and XE-1, why can't Nikon?

A D5XXX camera with the external controls of the P7XXX line would be awesome.

I don't know that's why I'm asking you, but you keep evading the question or ask me to go search.

Ok, so D & G is just a aperture ring control... so how does the following come into play?


That AF screw drive motor is not that cheap, once to be add in built-in should be have design more wider space to allow the screw drive with motor.

One more thing Is that AF-D lenses optical cannot be great like G lenses on Full HD output.
 

Ok, so D & G is just a aperture ring control... so how does the following come into play?

AF-D lenses perform just fine for HD video. Full HD video is roughly about 2 megapixels in resolution and AF-D lenses are more than capable of resolving that level of detail.

Your answer is dunno only?

D stands for Distance. AF-D adds a chip in the lens to send Distance information to the camera.
G stands for Gilded = no aperture ring.

Whether a lens is D or G has no bearing whatsoever to its performance. Performance is best gauged specific lens to lens.

You can ignore this in the standard Nikon user, should find out what's the purpose of lenses on Nikon history!

If wanna find more and just google on www.mir.com.my

Sorry bro, I don't understand what you are trying to say. But yes, mir.com.my is a great treasure trove of info on Nikon equipment.
 

This D5200 don't have 720p for video? I was hoping for 50 or 60fps even in 720p.
 

@ Lenslut hope brother can catch some ball :)

AF-D lens is non built-in SWM, but still able to works with screw driver motor on body.
But coating wise is made for film day an not as rich as G coating lenses and limited of performance as higher MP such as D800 and above, cause the IQ not as good like HD photo quality.

If when to G Lenses has built-in SWM on lens only, even non screw drive on body an still working on SWM.

The coating has newly design to suit new technology and more rich color with improved over the film camera.

But except some AF-G lens is without aperture ring and label as G and still work as screw drive.
The image quality as good, but still not meet to AF-S lens.

Cheers!
