Actually an entry level D3200 with the 24mp DX sensor does not make sense to me. A D3200 with the 16mp DX sensor and a D400 (+maybe D5200) with the new 24mp DX sensor is reasonable in theory... But who knows... What Nikon did in the FX line up regarding the sensor res. was also unexpected (or unwellcome, to me at least <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />...)
By the way, what makes you think that Nikon will produce a 54mp FX sensor in the future?

If a 24MP D3200 - or entry level DSLR, whatever the name - is indeed coming, it would be wise to provide a further JPEG setting which gives more compression than hitherto, to keep file size down. Otherwise there is a danger of newcomers being put off by large files.
For the rest of us... bring it on. I trust Nikon to put image quality at the top of the list, they've always taken a conservative approach. Fascinating to see how they tweak this sensor.
