Help Nikon D7000 vs Nikon D5200 vs Pentax 5-K

[Tomtom3989]

Hello, If possible could i please have some advice on which camera to buy. I've narrowed it down to these 3 but do not know which one to go for.

Prices (approx)
-Nikon D7000 Digital SLR Camera with 18-105mm VR Lens Kit £629.00
-Nikon D5200 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm VR Lens Kit £567.00
-Pentax K-5 DSLR + SMC DA 18-55mm F/3.5-5.6 AL WR lens £579.95

My personal usage will be
Just normal shooting (natural images) don't really care for video or special camera filters
don't like blurry shots so stabilization and focus
i really do not like flash so good shoots in lower light conditions is essential for me

at the min i'm ranking them as
1) Pentax K-5
2) Nikon D7000
3) Niko D5200

Any help would be really appreciated as i would like to buy for me holiday next week. Thankyou

I'd go for the d7000 or a d5100 if you want to save some cash

I would pick the D7000 or save your pennies for a D7100. The Pentax is good but I don't really see the point in going down that line unless you have a load of legacy pentax lenses and severe budget constraints.

I'll echo D.P's comments, I wouldn't go for the Pentax. They make good cameras, but the lens selection simply isn't as good as Nikon or Canon's.

I've just bought a D7000 and I'm really pleased with how it behaves in low light. If you're doing lots of low light stuff I would look either also getting a prime lens or getting a faster zoom instead of the 18-105. Personally I'd recommend getting the Nikkor 35mm f1.8 lens as well as the kit (in my view this lens is even better then Haribo).

Thank you all for the input. 3 - 0, I guess I'm getting the Nikon than.
This is my first dslr and i have no experience with lenses.
the only reason i said about low light is because my camera (compact and old) is rubbish indoors even during the day in seemingly adequate conditions its blurry. This is why i put the Pentax at the top of my list because of the speed however for what i could read it was marginal.
guess i will do a little research about lenses.
thankyou again

I'm not sure what you mean by speed, but I suspect you've got the wrong end of the stick.

Purely based on the low light performance I expect it would be a dead heat between those three cameras, if anything the D5200 would probably have the edge since it's the newest tech.
