new camera

Hi guys and girls
I'm looking to up grade my d5000
I was hoping for a d600 but funds wont reach
So I was looking at the D7000
But with the d3200 and the D5200(out soon)
Both of these have more MP (I know its not all about MP)
But they both use the expeed 3 chip where the d7000 is on the
Expeed 2
So I'm a bit confused as which way to go
Any ideas

What is it about the D5000 that you don't like? What functions or abilities do the newer models have that you think you might need? One advantage the D7000 has is a built in AF motor which will allow you to use older lenses which don't have a built in motor. There's likely to be a replacement for the D7000 announced soon too.

Thanks for the replies
After looking at the link mark
Its made me go for the D7000 the higher flash sync the
Better build, dof preview , the flash command
And more choice of lens
Thanks again

For what it's worth I think you've made a wise choice , I think the 7000 give's you more room to grow into as your photography grows .
