Hello all, this is my first post on this site.
I have only been into photography for about 18 months and feel as though i need to upgrade my camera. After reviewing various cameras i eventually bought the Nikon d3100. I use this with the kit lens 18-55. I have also purchased the Nikon DX 55-200 4-5.6 ED VR IF and also Nikon AF 50mm 1.8. It is a very good entry level dslr and has produced some very good images. I feel the time has arrived to upgrade to a higher level camera (Nikon only) and have narrowed the choice between the new d5200 or the older d7000. I am the kind of person who will not swap cameras every time a new one enters the market. I would like to do some HDR and time-lapse photography in the future and so am looking for advice and feedback on the 2 cameras mentioned. look forward to your replies. Keith

Hi Keith,

You would probably get more response to this in the talk equipment section!

Can't comment on the D5200 as never used 1.
D7000 is IMHO still the best DX camera currently available until they release it's replacement in the next few months!
For time lapse it has a built in intervalometer.
Everything is adjustable from buttons on the back of the camera rather than buried in menus!
I think the prices are fairly similar as you can now get brand new UK D7000 for around the £600 mark.
You also mention HDR which the D7000 also has an auto bracketing feature.
Hope this helps!
