Hello,
I have a Sony TX1 which I bought in 2012 and since then I have developed my interest in photography.As it is a point-and-shoot camera,I can't tinker much around with the photographs.So I need to buy a DSLR now but I don't know much about it.You can say I am just a beginner.I need a camera which is user friendly but it should have the capability to perform well when I am used to the technicalities of a DLSR.And also I want to sell my TX1 which is in mint condition and is purchased from Thailand.I want to know how much can it fetch me.Below is the questionnaire:

What's your budget?
30k +/- 5k

Camera type?
DSLR

How much zoom do you want/expect?
I will be doing some occasional macro photography,so need according to it.

Do you care for manual exposure controls?
Yes

What will you be shooting with this camera?
Everything.From macro to landscape,from indoor to outdoor...

Will you be shooting mostly indoors/low light and/or action/sports?
not mostly

Video?
Yes required.1080p.

Do you have any particular model(s) in your mind?
no

Any brand preference? Like/dislike
will prefer nikon more than canon

From where will you be buying?
depends on where i get good price.

Any other features you need?
Few features like live photography,movable display(if possible) and others i am leaving this question as you can judge better what should be required for a first time dslr user.
 
I would suggest go for a prosumer camera like an sx50. Will give you flexibility in capturing photos as well as you will not need to change or invest in lenses.

Remember, over time you will spend more on lenses and accessories than perhaps the body.
