DSLR - which specs should take priority

[fillum]

Im aware of the Sonys weakness in low light

I assume by "low light" you are referring to high-ISO performance? Something to keep in mind if you intend to shoot sport (or anything requiring a fast shutter-speed) is that you may need increased ISO to maintain your required shutter speed even in situations that might not normally be defined as "low light". Afternoon footy games in mid-winter, for example...

Yes i was referring to poor ISO results. After relooking at the a57 and a65 noise performance at mod-high ISO's it not good. Im back to the Nikon 5100, 5200 with the Canon 700D added to the list...

Purchase has been made. I went with the d5200 twin lens kit 18-55mm and 55-200mm. In my budget this seemed rate highly when it came to IQ and high ISP performance... I went for the 5200 over the 5100 due it's improve video over the 5100 and updated focusing system (reviews indicated it was faster due to additional cross matched af points).

Can't wait for it to arrive so I can start getting a some photos happening..
