Camera Help
Okay I already posted yesterday and got some great info but want to see if some others can give me even more...
I am getting my first DSLR and have been looking at Nikon D3100, D3200 & D5100. Obviously there are pros and cons of them all.. I don't take many videos so those features don't really matter. I want to have the best image quality... I know lens matter too but I want to start by getting the best camera for me. I really like to take pictures outside of like flowers and trees. I am mainly wanting to know which one I should get based off of image quality... is the extra $150 from a D3100 to a D3200 worth it? Or should I get a D5100? HELP

First, what is your budget? Because if you truly wanted the best image quality, a digital sensor in a large format camera would be the way to go.

Well I am currently saving up for one.. since I am just wanting an entry level DSLR camera, I was thinking like 800 dollars but it can be more. I know I will need much more for new lens but I figured about 800 would get me started.

Its not the camera that makes a photo good its the photographer.
That being said, if you will be shooting Auto, any of these DSLRS will do if you want to play around more with the settings/manual modes, youll need to be more specifec about what type of photography you will be doing. I would do a bit more research on both of these cameras if I were you. There are little details that are different with each cameras and depending on what type of photos you want will depend on what little features youll want.
