In need of a good camera for gymnastics?

I have a Nikon L110 and it takes good close-ups of flowers and pictures of the sky but I also need a good camera for gymnastics, a low light no flash zone. I don't really want to switch to a cannon or anything I just need a camera that is good for all of these things. Someone I know is getting a Nikon d5200 and I've been looking into that camera but everything I've found is in hard to understand "camera talk" and I can't figure out if it will be good for what am describing. No, I don't know what ISO means or what mm of lens is good. All I know is names and settings. So if you would try to keep answers in simple to understand English that would help a ton.(no I dont have a price range but I don't want to spend thousands on a camera) so would the Nikon d5200 be a good one to get or what others should I look into?

Feeling regretted! What is your preference?

Well… I am going for a trip and wanted to a camera before going. The time was short so i bought one today. I got confused between two of them. Of samsung and nikon.

Should i be? Is samsung also a nice one for camera?

Which AF-S lens is best with Nikon d3200?

I am planning to buy a Nikon d3200 with 18-55mm lens and also either one of the below lens.

Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G (4.3x) Lens
(or)
Tamron AF 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD Macro

My expectation with the lens is that, it must have built-in motor as Nikon d3200 does not have motor to support other AF lens

When searching for lens, I have found some 70-300 mm lens cost much higher than the above two. For example, Tamron AF 70-200mm F/2.8 Di LD. It cost around 44,000.

I was assuming 70-300mm lens can do much more than a 70-200mm lens. Since the price was much different. Anyone could help me understand the difference.

Thanks in advance.
