by out door if u mean u want to zoom on birds and animals then u need a zoom lens...
for indoor if u want to shot in low light then again you need a 35mm 1.8 or 50mm 1.8 lens :D

with basic kit lens you can shoot indoor with flash,landscapes,group photos,party shots with flash,portraits etc :)

soo can you again describe what you want to shoot ;)

BTW you fall in the DSLR bracket of nikon D3100,D5100,& canon 600D & Canon 100D (replacement of 1100D)

Good to see a new announcement from Canon. But seems more expensive than 600D.

can you extend your budget to 40k ....I think D5100+18-105 will be good enough for ur needs ....you can not do birding with that but at least you can take some shots at zoo ...

technically D5200 is far ahead then D5100 ....D5200 is like D7000 less focus motor ...but then u will get 18-55 for now...will it be ok for you

a 18-55 kit cost 6k and a 18-105mm kit cost around 15-16k soo the price will increase by 10k...soo u will get D5200+18-105 for 50k

how did u check the low light thing....I hope you know that you have to put the camera on ISO 1600 and above and check if it produces clean image or not

else there is no replacement for big aperture lenses like 50mm 1.8 for low light

I would be a bit careful about the D5200. It has been criticised for its soft images which has resulted in the D7200 having its AA filter removed.

Well, I'm not recommending the D7100. I merely mentioned it to show the impact of the problem. As to how to check the D5200, the simplest way is to wait and see if the negative impressions on image quality change as users get used to it. Sometimes a newer model needs a different approach and users who upgrade from older models will have to wait for their minds to recalibrate before they get the best out of the camera. I don't think that is the case here given the upstream modifications but there is no harm in seeing how things pan out. One can also wait to see if Nikon will release a firmware upgrade which might solve the problem - though I don't think that is going to happen either.

It would be good if you can describe, or post photos, of what you would consider 'good' in low light photography. If you are serious about indoor photography you will need a good flash (emphasis on good) and learn to use it well. This applies to some forms of outdoor photography as well.
