I got a D5100 shortly after the 5200 came out for $350, body only, cash only. It had a good serial that I was able to register with Nikon. I usually go B&H though, they have more selection and are WAY more knowledgeable. Their hours are screwy, though.

After some thought, I was thinking...maybe I should wait and go with the D5300. BlueJazz Nov 2013 #8

You can get the 5200 kit at KEH if you don't mind getting it shipped justiceischeap Nov 2013 #9

Thank you. That is an option. Looks like the 5300 is going to be a little hard to get and pricey.. BlueJazz Nov 2013 #10
