D5100 is the best value for money in the entry-level DSLR category. Better image quality than on the D3200 or T2i. If you want to invest more, pick an affordable semi-pro like Pentax K-5.

Canon T2i - $550
17.9 MP|APS-C CMOS|3" LCD

Hello,
I've had read lots of reviews for choosing between these two and they all were almost saying that D3200 is better than T2i, I'm as beginner as you are and hence could not judge any of them but I've kinda fond of Nikon(and also reviews were good for it) so I've got Nikon D3200 and I'm very happy with it's results and more importantly it feels friendly :) which is what a beginner really needs. I don't have any idea about T2i personally as D3200 is my first dslr,
but I guess for both these cameras you would like to use better lenses rather than kit-lenses, there are plenty of them for both brands even I'm planning to have Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Lens.
