I was lucky enough to get a d3200 for $180 Canadian last summer, and I've been amazed with it
I can't say enough good things about it - if you can afford it, buy one

Yeah I would pay the extra for the VR lens. This is cracking camera for the money. The best in its class in my opinion

Yep great camera, better than the newer D3400 imo.
Missing from D3400 (compared to D3300)..
● Built-in flash only half as powerful as the D3300.
● No Mic input socket (D3300 has this)
● No sensor cleaner (D3300 has this.)

Thinking of getting this for my son. Any suggestions for a smallish travel zoom to go with it?

The standard kit lens is very good with this and offers 27-82mm focal length. It is quite small as it can be collapsed down when not in use. The one to get is the latest 18-55mm VR AF-P http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/18-55mm-af-p.htm
Next step up is the 18-140 but this costs about the same as the camera.
Bought this from Argos with the VR lens when Quidco were doing 10% cashback. An extra tenner for the VR lens is a no brainer IMO

If anyone is considering buying a Nikon remote for this. I've just been stung on eBay with a fake. Works fine as expected but I paid £4 rather than 99p from hong kong. Have started refund through ebay.
I've bought the Nikon HB-N106 lens hood and Hoya 55mm UV filter off Amazon too.
Amazon did price match Argos but I'd pay £10 more to Argos than Amazon any day for a high price item, Argos customer service has been excellent for me.
