Nikon SLR Cameras

Canon 60d (at very good price) or Nikon 5100?

So I kinda asked this question before but I failed to mention prices which are big factors. The nikon d5100 with 18-55mm is $850 and the canon 60d with 18-200mm is $1200. I mainly take pictures of people, sports, macro (insects, flowers), landscapes, and indoor such as house, gym, and church. What camera is better and/or has better features? Also can someone explain to me how I can set up the d5100 to do wireless flash (I know you can the su800 transmitter and speedlight but someone told me there's a cheaper alternative).

I answered your previous question, and the way you had worded it had read it that you had already bought your D5100.

Just buy a 600D.

Forget the 18-200. Tries to do too much. Avoid. Doesn't do anything with any merit.

A (cheaper) 18-55 and 55-250 combo does the same and more, for less.

To use wireless flash you'll need a 270 exii or 430exii or 580exii.
