Off camera flash for nikon d5000?

I have a Nikon d5000 camera and I have been shooting with a yongnuo flash off camera. I shoot a lot of action shots and use the pop up flash to trigger the yongnuo flash. I know that I can't have a shutter speed higher than 1/200 and there's nothing you can do in the custom settings menu to change this. I was getting ready to buy a transmitter and receiver off of amazon since I hate having to use the pop up flash anyways, but I'm not sure if this will let me shoot at a faster shutter speed. Will using a transmitter and receiver allow me to shoot at a higher shutter speed since I won't be using the on camera pop up flash?

How much is my camera worth? - 1

It's a Nikon d3200. It works, but has a few minor glitches ie freezing when pressing the playback button. It has wax damage (long story not my fault) and that it's why it freezes. It has it's original lens and battery and charger. How much should I sell it for?

Ps it won't be very expensive to fix, I have a replacement so I simply don't need it anymore.

Trouble with trying to transfer images?

I have a Nikon D5100 and have previously transferred images successfully to my PC for printing. Unfortunately, for the past year or so ill health and visits to hospital (several!) have prevented my using the camera at all until a few days ago. I find that now I can't transfer images at all. The instruction book tells me to connect the USB cable (with the computer switched on) then switch the camera on (same for transferring by using the SD card in the slot in the PC), then select from the dialogue box. Trouble is, no dialogue box appears and if I click on "Nikon Transfer 2) and then on "Source", there is no sign of any device in use! Am I doing something stupid? I certainly had no trouble transferring images a year ago. Incidentally, to forestall a possible suggestion, the instruction tells me to ensure the camara battery is fully charged, and it is. Any ideas would be welcome, so thanks in advance to all those who try to help.

What DSLR to get for a beginner?

I love taking pictures
Right now I have a Canon Powershot sx 40 hs and I love it. But I think it's time to upgrade and I want to try DSLR cameras.

I've had both Nikon and Canon and don't really have a preference. I don't need video so that's not important. I would just like a camera that has the best image quality - with the starter lens (I plan to upgrade to better lenses once I get the hang of it)

I've only looked at the Canon t3i and the Nikon D5100 but can't decide

Is there a camera that has better image quality than those 2?

Also I don't want to spend anything more than $600

Thanks in advance
