I have the D5100 and it's an excellent camera. It's 16.2 megapixels and has more features than I can use. The articulated screen is great for when you want to get low views of a subject but don't want to lay on the ground to compose.
It has a built-in intervalometer for time delay shots such as star trails.
If I was to try to explain all the features I'd have to write volumes. I've had mine since last Spring, and have yet to find any fault with it.
I also have a D80 which has internal focusing, but the D5100 doesn't have that, so you'll need autofocusing lenses unless you don't mind using manual focus. If a lens has the AF inscription on it, then you know it's autofocus.
Here is a recent shot taken with it, but don't buy a camera because of pretty pictures.
