If you're going to be shooting a lot of video, then get a Canon. The Canons are still superior to Nikons for video, but for stills, the Nikons potentially are better in terms of resolution & dynamic range. That 25MP APS-C sensor in the Nikons are useless without a lens that can do the sensor justice.

That new Canon 18-135mm kit lens for the T4i & T5i is actually quite a good lens, and is optimized for video shooting, while the Nikon 18-105mm lens is ok too, but kinda isn't the best for the D3200 or D5200. The Nikon lens also has a plastic lens mount where the Canon 18-135mm is metal.
