I half fancies the D5100 when I looked months ago but I thought it might be a tad expensive...but I'll have to look again
I bought mine in a package deal with two lenses, memory cards and bag so worked out cheaper than Canon's entry level dslr.
But it has ended up costing me a fortune... I am a sucker for accessories and gadgetry. I have a mean tripod, a remote control, extra lenses, lenses filters, reflectors, strobe lights, flashes and a host of extra batteries, memory cards and shoulder straps in various designs.
As I said... it's the first camera I've had that has so many available accessories and I'm taking full advantage of that fact.
