I'm a somewhat amateur photographer. Can't decide!!
alkharjijr | Asked  11 months ago | Last response was 9 months ago

I'm currently saving up for a camera to buy next spring. And I can't decide between the D5100 and the D3200. They are both great, with very good reviews. I'm also not very strange with a Nikon, my brother has a D6000 and I borrow it at times. It would really help me decide which to buy. This will be my first DSLR, so this is quite important to me.

Which camera do you recommend for alkharjijr?

Nikon D5100 - $497
16.1 MP|APS-C CMOS|3" LCD
Nikon D3200 - $547
24.1 MP|APS-C CMOS|3" LCD

    only attraction of d3200 is 24MPX - but nothing like a  swivel screen behind a good 16mpx sensor

    go for d5100 - buy a 35mm f1.8 lens which u will fall in love with

    Take D5100.

    -cheaper-flip lcd -> very usable for video.

    -16MP is more than enough for first DSLR

    -better battery life

    -better ISO  

    -built in HDR
