minor fixes: 7/28/2011 update: 10/12/2012 Nikon D5100 Review The "Just Right" Model? Add a comment or send Thom feedback on this article. Update: we're more than halfway through the D5100's expected life, with a new version likely in spring 2013.

Nikon vs Sony
I couldn't decide between the Nikon D5100 and the Sony a57 so i bought them both to try them out. Overall they are both great but in the end I chose the Sony. The colours and clarity on both were great as you would expect. The menu system on each are quite different but both very effective.

Pros:
- Compact
- Build quality
- Battery life
Cons:
- Complicated
