Nikon D5100.

Im saying this against a 1100D because just within 7 days of buying a EOS600D which I thought was redundant for me is actually optimum and thank god I chose it over a 1100D. Im found A+ the auto mode boring went to CA creative Auto and within next threee days Im in full Manual playing with aperture and ISO !!! Point is get a good body and for starters 18-55 is great. I hardly use teh 55-250mm! I m lanning to get a 18-200 soon.
