I’m trying to estimate battery life on a Nikon D5200 using the standard EN-EL14 battery. Roughly how many photos can I expect from a full charge in normal still-photo use?

A D5200 should be able to take about 500 shots per charge according to Nikon:

The D5200's superior energy-saving design allows you to shoot approx. 500 shots per charge* with the EN-EL14 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery.

*Based on CIPA Standards.

That number comes from an industry standard procedure for testing battery life of still cameras, and it's unlikely that your experience will exactly match the test conditions. Based on Romeo Ninov's comment below, we can modify Nikon's number and say that depending on how you use the camera, you should get 500 ±200 shots per charge.

Nikon rates the D5200 at about 500 shots per charge with the EN-EL14 battery, based on CIPA standard testing. In real use, battery life varies with how you shoot, so your results may not match that exact figure. A practical expectation is roughly 500 shots, with real-world results often falling around 500 ± 200 shots depending on factors like image review, flash use, autofocus, and how much time the camera spends powered on between shots.
