Reviews around feature (5.00 of 5)

  • Another important feature for me is the ability to shoot at 8 frames / second and up to 50 RAW photos before the buffer fills up
  • A new feature also thanks to the D500's meter is Viewfinder AF face-tracking
  • It could use some refinement and it rarely locks onto eyes, but it is a pretty reliable feature and really handy
  • It would have been nice, but the other features are more important to me
  • I liked the feature where you could use the live preview and touch the screen where you wanted it to be in focus, and it would refocus and take the shot

Reviews around light (5.00 of 5)

  • Pros:- a much appreciated upgrade in technology (sensor, ISO capabilities, auto focus, metering, video, etc.)- lighter and a more portable than my D300- 8fps- ISO capabilities and noise handling are phenomenal- much more
  • D7500 is speedy, weight is very manageable (i travel with my 2 kids), low light is awesome and many choices of lens
  • D500 is a beast, great low light, but heavy and expensive
  • In good light the D7500 will accurately shoot sports and fast moving kid action in AF-C and it nails focus (meanwhile the D5500 cannot keep up)

Reviews around frame (5.00 of 5)

  • The fastest is 8 frames per second and seems to be even better when set on "sport".UPDATE: I've had this camera for a little over two weeks now
  • The D7500 finally has a usable Continuous High frame rate and adequate buffer
  • The 8 frames is awesome and I have yet to fill the 50 shot buffer(raw).
  • If you ask me, "full frame" isn't worth an extra $1,500 to $2,000, especially if you're a hobbyist just looking to shoot video for vlogging or YouTube.

Reviews around crop (5.00 of 5)

  • Only the top and bottom were cropped from the full 3:2 still image frame by the camera due to the 16:9 aspect ratio
  • Only the top and bottom were cropped from the full 3:2 still image frame by the camera due to the 16:9 aspect ratio
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.
  • 1080p video doesn't suffer this crop so this really seems to be an intended crippling of the D7500 so as to not cannibalize the Full-Frame bodies that shoot 4K.5

Reviews around body (5.00 of 5)

  • 1080p video doesn't suffer this crop so this really seems to be an intended crippling of the D7500 so as to not cannibalize the Full-Frame bodies that shoot 4K.5
  • The D7500 takes so much of what is great about the D500 and offers it in a more affordable body.
  • Other than that, it's a great body for starting photographers looking for jobs or as a second camera
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.

Reviews around upgrade (4.55 of 5)

  • This is a FINE camera and a major upgrade to Nikon's previous DSLR models in this range.
  • If you're moving from a D3xxx or D5xxx body to the D7500, it's a pure upgrade and you'll have no regrets
  • But if you are already invested in Nikon lenses (like I am), and your last higher-end DX camera is over 5 years old, this seems to be a worthy upgrade.
  • Initially i thought it’s very great upgrade as There are very good reviews on
  • I was not prepared for the upgrade, truly amazed and grateful to Nikon for building such a solid product

Reviews around picture (4.49 of 5)

  • n’t take pictures with hand where as I was getting good pictures with Canon old camera
  • After about a week of disastrous picture results and hair-pulling frustration over the inability to make settings interact correctly, I purchased a book - David Busch's Nikon D7500 Guide to Digital SLR Photography - David Busch's Nikon D7500 Guide to Digital SLR Photography.
  • This camera is fantastic and takes better pictures on auto than I ever could
  • The pictures are sharp Most frequently used adjustments such as ISO, Metering, quality , and white balance are built in to the back so no need to hunt through the minu to find what you want.
  • The Nikon D7500 does many other things very well and takes excellent pictures and the price - look at the price

Reviews around screen (4.33 of 5)

  • The tilting screen was useful to have, but not as useful as a fully articulating screen (like the D5300)
  • For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway
  • I have a D5300 with an articulated screen, and I ended up using that camera instead of the D7100 for outdoors shooting
  • For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.

  • For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway
  • I love the speed of the 7500 in continuous mode and the fact I can take a LOT of pictures of fast moving scenes without filling the buffer in a few seconds
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.

Reviews around shutter (4.16 of 5)

  • The shutter is quite sensitive and I will easily shoot a sequence when only one is needed, but they delete
  • Returned, was giving over-exposed and blurry images with super fast shutter speeds and auto ISO
  • For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.

Reviews around color (4.03 of 5)

  • and I like the dark colors of blue sky’s and green backgrounds with Nikon
  • I love my D7200's sensor and the D7500 hardly distances itself from the D7200, but it does have detectably better color and saturation and very slightly better ISO performance
  • Of course pictures are crispy clear, well balanced colors and brightness, some dont need much retouching
  • The D7500 has more accurate/neutral color noise though, as the D7200's noise pulled a little magenta.2
  • , colors are excellent, DR so good and noise profile so good that I'm fine with 20MP

Reviews around focus (3.50 of 5)

  • Focus is very fast and the auto fine tune is excellent for screw drive af and af-d lenses.
  • For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.
  • I'm not very pleased with the slow auto focusing but for portraits and landscapes this camera is very nice
  • The touch screen was awesome, and made it VERY easy to check critical focus and work with the menu - even with gloves on

Reviews around shoot (3.50 of 5)

  • Now the uproar over the missing card shot is much ado about nothing
  • colors- quiet shooting mode is nice, and overall the shutter is much
  • Vertical shooting was horrible
  • For scenes that don't have excessive "hot spot(s)," this mode yields unpredictable results, for me anyway

Reviews around slot (1.80 of 5)

  • I understand why people complain about the missing second SD slot, but as long as I carried a second card around, it was fine
  • If you are taking critical shots like a wedding or that once in a lifetime trip you should have a second camera body etc with you for if a camera fails on you it can be many causes not just a failed card slot.
  • I can easily adjust the top dial (Auto, P, A, S, etc.) but the lower level dial (S, CL, CH, etc.) is much more difficult for me to change than how I'm used to adjusting those settings on the D300.- while I appreciate the lighter camera, there is something I miss about feeling such a rock solid camera body in my hand, such as the D300.
  • Yes missing extra card slot but still a grand cheaper than D500.
  • I miss the second card slot which saved me several times in the past when I neglected to return the card to slot one
