D5100 is within my budget XD
just consider D3200 VS D5100 XD
video i will use la for next semester cause video shooting= =
then 35 or 50mm 1.8g combo?
what is that
Just a personal opinion,
Canon handles video a whole lot better than Nikon.
+ Can change aperture and audio levels while filming
+ Magic Lantern
+ Most canon has better video frame rate of 30fps at 1080p while only the latest/newer Nikon can do that.
+ I prefer canon white balance since some Nikon models have a slight green tint. Video colour correction is harder to do than stills.
That being said, I fine shooting stills better on the Nikon due to the AF and exposure metering. (For budget DSLR of a similar level, a 70D will be better than a D3100 of course)
Just my 2 cents from owning a dual system setup.
