So the canon EOS series has magic Lantern and that give you the shooting in RAW capability. Is there a similar thing for the Nikon side? I have a D3200 and i know the T3i has it which is a equal camera to the d3200. and suggestions?

Yes, Nikon shoots .NEF which is their version of RAW and just as well supported by Photoshop and the like.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Another thing: you don't need Magic Lantern to shoot RAW (at least not for pictures)

On the Nikon no. The most you can get is uncompressed HDMI output on their higher end DSLRs (e.g. D800)

You can't shoot RAW video onto a memory card, they just don't have the ability to be written to fast enough.

Alot of Nikons higher end cameras ($700+) can output RAW video via HDMI though.

I have a T3i. Magic lantern is a preset to use when shooting video. It drops the contrast which allows for easier colour correction, but is NOT raw. Raw video is only available in very high end cameras (RED scarlet/epic/one, black magic, phantom hd, etc...)

 

Raw photo is available in nearly all cameras now. I cant be sure as i have never used it but im 99% sure that the nikon will have it
