1) Which one is best? The 5000 has a fold out screen and better video fps, but the 3100 is slightly smaller and described as a better camera and also the newer camera
2) The 3100 is cheaper one, but does that mean its worse?
3) Can i put my Tameron 70-300mm Lense which i use on my D50 onto the 3100/5000 and will it work on AutoFocus still?
Help please!

1) Which one is best ...... Only you can really answer that on the basis of what I think is best, is not necessarily the best for you. I use a well out of date D2X and still think it's up there with the best, plenty of others would no doubt disagree as they would rate it an antique. So there you go. Something only you can decide.
2) Know what you want in the way of specs then read reviews. I am sure both take great pictures.
3) Just posted a thread on this very subject here
