IF you can budget $700.00 I would buy the Nikon D3200 with lens, this is what I would buy. Comes in Red or Black, the newer cameras have better low light shooting, I can shoot ISO 6400 with my D700, that looks like my D200 at ISO 800 or 400, Remember this is brand new with warranty, and you will have this camera for a few years.
I have no choice but to keep my D200's, they fit in my underwater camera housing for scuba diving, I would love to buy a new housing, but that's about $5000.00 for new housing plus ports and gears.
