I was planning on getting a nikon d5100 but then i saw that nikon had the d5200. Its $200 more at my local bestbuy. But i was wondering is it worth it. Its a bit over my budget but i don't plan on getting another camera in 6 or 7 years. I'm not a professional photographer but photography takes a big role in my life. I'm familier with iso aperture, wb, shutter speeds etc. I'm more of a semi pro hobbyist photographer. I know the 5200 has 39 auto focas points and 8 more megapixels, but does it make a big difference. Please tell me your opinions on which camera to get
BTW: my new camera is suppose to be an upgrade from my olympus e3, i take all types of photos-macro to landscape and everything in between ( if that helps )

Asking for opinions is not really a good way to decide to spend your money or not

You need to do some independent research
