Good Camera for Photography Student?

Hello:)

I'm looking for a new camera, but I'm having difficulty choosing between Canon and Nikon. I've done a fair bit of research on both but I can't make up my mind, so I need some input.

I'm going into university to study photography. Right now I attend an arts high school and have been doing photography for quite some time so I'm ahead of most people my age. I've been using a Sony A33 for the last 3 years but the image quality has gotten very noisy and blurry (maybe I haven't maintained it right? If anyone sees a solution to this then please let me know), so I've figured I should upgrade. I'd like my new camera to last me throughout university or longer.

Canon? Nikon? Pentax? Something?

So, for my graduation present (which I have a $700 limit on), I want to get a nice camera, as I've always been into photography, and as I've been learning more and more about the technicalities of it, the more eager I am to have my own that is of good quality.

Unfortunately, I have no idea what would be a good idea to look into. I'm not looking for a universally "oh this one is the best" kind of answer, but more… recommendations? I just want an idea of a few cameras to look at, rather than every single one within that price range out there. Am I making sense?

I'm just sick of my sister insisting "ugh Nikons are horrible, get a Canon," when I know there are other alternatives, too.

What would be a good brand to look into, you think? And if you have any ideas for a specific camera (as I'm a beginner), that'd be much appreciated, too!

Should image quality numbers dissuade me from buying a camera?

all of the numbers given to a camera can make choosing one to fork over big money very confusing and daunting

example: several sites give the vaunted Canon 70D only a 68 in terms of image quality, lagging behind the Nikon D7100's 83.

even some mirrorless models scored better

so, is the image quality of that camera lacking?

how do you evaluate which one to buy with so much differing info?

Is the nikon D5300 weather sealed?

If so how weather sealed is it. If it is not weather sealed how much water can it take without breaking.
Added (1). Also it may seem a stupid question but is the 18 - 140 mm lens FX or DX.

Looking at nikon dslr's, which is best a novice?

My husband has some lenses he inherited, which is why I'm looking at Nikon. I'm not a beginner, but a novice, with hopes to get better. I want one with full control and have been looking at the D5100 and d5200. I am undecided.

Lens badly packed - should I seek to return?

I bought a Nikon 35mm f1.8g lens from a reputable camera store. The lens was new - so it came in its original box. However, there was nothing else to protect it. The seller just placed it in the small parcel - no protection like bubblewrap or plastic popcorn whatsoever. Could this have caused damage to the lens. I have tried it and it seems to work okay, but I can't tell if something hasn't been shaken up inside?
Added (1). I should say the box has been damages slightly - there is a hole in it.

Camera setting when attached to a telescope?

When I attach a Nikon d40 to a Celestron NexStar 4SE using the t-ring for a Nikon (93402) and the t-adapter (93635-A), it seems to fit properly. But when I press the button for a picture, it says no lens is attached. Is there some special camera setting to use?

Good Nikon Camera For Action Shots?

I love taking pictures and I'm also a horseback rider and would like to take pictures at my shows. I would like to upgrade from my Kodak EasyShare to a Nikon. My friend has one and it takes beautiful pictures. But I would like one that takes really good action shots that come out crystal clear. Should I just get a normal Nikon and buy a separate lense for it?

Also, I want a camera that can zoom really far and take clear shots. Does Nikon have a camera with both of these features?

Thanks!
