Which camera


I am looking for a good beginners DSLR and debating between Nikon D5300, D3200, Canon Rebel T5i and Pentax K-50. Anyone have information?

  I am an amatuer and would not be able to give you advise on which of the cameras to purchase. What I would say is you might want to try a point and shoot camera first and if enjoy it then buy the best dslr camera you can afford. This is only my opinion, but I feel even if you buy the best camera available today in 6 months it will be out dated by all the new technology.
I personally own two Nikons (D80 & D7100). I would also only buy a body only and buy the lense separate depending on which type of photography you enjoy most. I hope this helps a little.

  You should do a comparison and also look at the cost of lenses, because that can be your biggest expense. I have both a DSLR and a point and shoot and use them equally, depending on how much weight I'm in the mood to carry around.
