Both the D5xxx and D3xxx range lack an autofocus motor, meaning that buying lenses is more expensive, and preventing you from using cheaper, old (but just as good!) nikon lenses!
The D3200 (sensor made by Sony) & D5200 (sensor made by Toshiba) do not share the same sensor, and the older Nikon lenses do not perform as well optically as the newer lenses due to the super high resolution and pixel density. They are generally sharp in the centre but get soft out towards the edges.
