OK my iPhone just doesn't cut it and my wife is thinking of buying me a camera :tongue::kiss::love: I don't want to spend too much (after all that means less corals for purchasing) so what do the experts think about these options:

Nikon D3200 @449
Nikon D3300 @499
Nikon D5200 @599
Nikon D5300 @799 - getting too expensive for me
Nikon D7100 @1199 - definitely too expensive for me

And finally which lens would you suggest?

The advertising flyer I'm basing this on has only Nikons so other options within these price ranges are welcome.

Thanks!
 
I know it's not on your list, I'm no camera expert by any means. I bought a used Nikon D5100 from a local reefer and couldn't be happier. However, I also bought lightroom and that also is very nice to have when dealing with those pesky blues!
