DSLR Advice

My 7 year old Pentax DSLR is on its last legs, hence I have invested in a $20 intervalometer and intend to run it into the ground to see if I can come to grips with some timelapse imaging.

Nevertheless, it is time to consider replacing it. A new camera would be used piggyback for widefield, hopefully some timelapse and more "normal" forms of photography. Therefore not specialising in astrophotography and not requiring serious modifiacations.

Some of the models being considered are:
Nikon D5100, Nikon D7000 and Canon 60D.

There is also a Canon 60Da on the Canon au website and mentioned on a youtube video from NEAF 2012, but I can't find it in any retailer catalogues.

Any advise on these models would be appreciated as well as any advice on others, especially if they have built in intervalometers.

Cheers
