Thank you for quick reply. Canon is cheaper than Nikon. So I should go with canon? And what about lens? Please can you tell me any site where canon and nikon photographers posts photos so that i compare image quality.
Thank you,

You will never see a difference between those cameras in image quality.

The kit lens with the 5200 is the same as the kit lens with my camera. It is good at everything, but not great anywhere. I shoot with a variety of lenses but those will come later on (and easily cost more than the camera quickly). The kit lens will get you pretty far with learning.

It is completely a matter of taste (and, some times, of types of photogharhy you plan).

Nikon was criticised for unnatural colors on portraits, but for landscapes it has a somewhat better optics that is also slightly cheaper than Canon's. The Canon's top portrait and telephoto lenses ("L"s) are much more cheap than Nikon's top-quality lenses, though. If you plan to use just a kit, then it is a completely no matter (but I strongly recommend you to purchase 40/2.8 pancake for Canon or 35/1.8 fast prime for Nikon!)

Best regards!
