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

It would have been nice, but the other features are more important to me

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

It could use some refinement and it rarely locks onto eyes, but it is a pretty reliable feature and really handy

A new feature also thanks to the D500's meter is Viewfinder AF face-tracking

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)

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

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.

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

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.

If you're moving from a D3xxx or D5xxx body to the D7500, it's a pure upgrade and you'll have no regrets

This is a FINE camera and a major upgrade to Nikon's previous DSLR models in this range.

I was not prepared for the upgrade, truly amazed and grateful to Nikon for building such a solid product

ISO performance is, indeed, an upgrade, no doubt about that!I do not mind the 21MP instead of 24MP.

The Nikon D7500 does many other things very well and takes excellent pictures and the price - look at the price

This camera is fantastic and takes better pictures on auto than I ever could

n’t take pictures with hand where as I was getting good pictures with Canon old camera

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.

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.

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.

The tilting screen was useful to have, but not as useful as a fully articulating screen (like the D5300)

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

Returned, was giving over-exposed and blurry images with super fast shutter speeds and auto ISO

The shutter is much quite quieter than the D7000 and makes a sweet sound like my old Contax

and I like the dark colors of blue sky’s and green backgrounds with Nikon

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

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

The touchscreen is great, works really well and is very intuitive.

I'm not very pleased with the slow auto focusing but for portraits and landscapes this camera is very nice

Focus is very fast and the auto fine tune is excellent for screw drive af and af-d lenses.

The touch screen was awesome, and made it VERY easy to check critical focus and work with the menu - even with gloves on

But always having to get around these locks is a constant block to seamless shooting and a pain in the butt.7

colors- quiet shooting mode is nice, and overall the shutter is much

It's so important when shooting low to the ground and for video.

Vertical shooting was horrible

I expect Nikon will address this in the first firmware update since this is happening on a camera whose primary draw is fast continuous shooting

Yes missing extra card slot but still a grand cheaper than D500.

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 miss the second card slot which saved me several times in the past when I neglected to return the card to slot one
