What do you think of the Nikon D7500 ??

[Johnny Garcia-Photography]

For the most part you should forget the camera even has that pop-up flash, unless using it for Commander mode. For under $100 you can use a real flash head.

I taped down the pop-up flash on my D810 )

I will think of you and the D7500 with it's pivoting screen, when I have to lay on my belly to do a ground level shot with my D7200.
Enjoy the new camera.

Having a spare body makes sense.
There have been a few times where I wish I had a 2nd body for a 2nd lens. Switching cameras is much faster than changing lenses.
But right now, I would rather have another lens than a 2nd body.

TODAY WITH NEW CAMERA

PL
Watch the focus.
It looks like the camera focused on the branches in front of the bird.
If you are in Auto, that is the problem. Auto will focus on "closest subject," whatever that closest object/subject is.
In P/Program mode, I can force the camera to focus on what I want it to.
But even in P mode, when you are shooting through stuff, like branches, it can sometimes be very difficult to just get the subject, and not get caught by the stuff in between.

I just ordered one for use with long tele, sports, and macro. I was a bit torn between the d7200 and d7500 but, I wanted the huge buffer and extended ISO that the D7500 offers. If having 2 cards vs 1 is a deal breaker go with the d7200. If you like to do a lot of sports or wild life photography and need a deep buffer then maybe the d7500 is a better choice.

I have now owned my D7500 for a few months.. i am not excited about it at all.. not that it is a drawback in itself..just that when my D7200 came back from Nikon repaired it worked just as well as this new D7500.. but i sold it with regret.. and the person i sold it to is the winner.. this D7500 really does not have much change in quality compared to the d7200.. what i should have done was purchased the d500.. and as soon as possible that is what i intend to do.... so in my mind i wasted my money in this purchase.. i wanted a jump.. and all i got was a hop.
