Based on your criteria, about half a dozen models would fit in your budget.
Almost all the models have discussed a lot before in this forum. You can wait and get the same response again or you can browse this forum and get the answer yourself. No offense.

I think you should go through some more of threads here...and tell us what you think...and ask some specific questions

Thanks for your reply guys ..
Actually I have gone through some threads ..
What i could find was 5200 lacks auto focus..and is a 2013 model.. Although better than 5100.
About 3300 ,its a recently launched model .. With guided mode feature but people were complaining that they couldnt take distant pics.
N I did not considered 3200 as its the predessesor of 3300.

What I am confused is that I wont be able to upgrade the lens of the camera,as parents will start saying " bete ko photography ka shauk chada hai "
So which body + lens kit (provided default in cam) is best in the scenarios,considering low light pics,distant photography maybe of tall buildings and maybe beachside photos.
Cause i wont be able to upgrade for like a year or so..

So do all the other models in your budget.

but people were complaining that they couldnt take distant pics.

It will be the same with all the cameras as long as you use kit lens.

N I did not considered 3200 as its the predessesor of 3300.

IMO, D3300 is more of an incremental upgrade. You can save some money by going with the older ones.

If you want an all rounder in this budget, either you have to go for Canon 1100D with dual lens kit or drop the idea of DSLR and go for bridge or buy the one you like and after a year you can buy a telephoto lens.

Thanks .. will search and decide between 3300 and 5200 models.

Get any of the DSLR with a 18-105 kit lens and you will be happier for longer time ... DSLR matters less and lens matter more ...

I think this combination is best for you - > Nikon D3200 With 18 105mm VR KIT Lens 8GB Card BAG | eBay

 

[A.Asesh]

Ohkk.. Yeah i think your combo will be perfect for me. 3200 + 18-105.
