  • nikon 3200 quits during video recording??!!

    Posted by Wendy Reed on September 22, 2013 at 6:51 pm

    Anyone have a problem with the Nikon 3200 just stopping during video recording? When this happens nothing is on the card and the camera seems “stuck.” I have to take the battery out and then re-insert to get the camera to respond.

    I am not familiar with that make or model but have you tried updating/re-installing the camera’s firmware? It sounds like it is corrupted if you are not getting any warning messages before it freezes

    I only had it happen to me once. This was an issue that a recent firmware update supposedly fixed. I’ve used this camera extensively during the last year and a half, you can search here for other issues I’ve gone through with it to see if it’ll help you.
    If it’s a new purchase and you still have the opportunity Id recommend exchanging the D3200 for the D5200, it’s not much more expensive and it seems like all the issues I ran into with this camera are fixed on that model. Nikon customer service isn’t interested in helping customers who can’t afford their higher-end products.
