Just came from the DPR forums, and asked the same thing there. So don't worry, it's not DejaVu, you probably did read this before, if youre a forum explorer.
And yes that is a D5200, not 3200. Got really lucky.
-----------------------------
I just sold off my last Canon gear (had a 450D, EOS M, and T4i - I'm actually keeping the EOS M), because I got a great deal on the D5200, ended up being $399 for kit lens and body, new.
I love the camera and the articulated screen. However, there are a few things that I miss. For one, the autofocus on video is horrendously loud. The Canon STMs were silent assassins, while the kit Nikon and the few other nikon lenses I played with were louder than a epileptic robot bull in a china shop. But I have forgiven the lens, because the video quality is just so amazing, and 60fps 1080 ftw. But one thing that I'm not able to get over is the color.
If you have seen any of the Matrix movies, you know what I'm talking about. Everything has a greenish cast to it. It's not that bad, but when I pull out the diminutive Canon EOS M, the color reproduction is so much more accurate to what I see when compared to the Nikon.
I sort of mediated it with the picture controls and white balance customizations, but haven't found a sweet spot.
Any of you guys have any special settings that work for you?
