I chose my first DSLR for a long time, read reviews, reviews, opinions. I didn’t want to buy old models . And at first I decided on the choice of d3100 with an 18-105 lens, but then they offered to buy for the same money with a good discount - d5100 with a standard kit (18-55) and I agreed and did not regret it. I’d better buy a telephoto later, otherwise there aren’t enough focal lengths. In general, I am very pleased with the choice, good luck to you too!
