Nikon D7500 DX-Format Digital SLR Body

Comment

I love this camera. Many years ago, I started off with a Nikon D40X, then upgraded to a D5100, and I now have upgraded to the D7500, and I wish I would have upgraded much sooner! If you are on the fence about upgrading...do it! Do it now! I love the focus and speed of this camera. I thoroughly researched the different options before making this purchase. I discovered I wasnt ready to upgrade to a full frame...I have too many crop sensor lenses, and I cannot afford to upgrade to a full frame camera AND buy new glass too. I then considered the D500, but it was too expensive, and it didnt have any additional features that I needed. Im very pleased with the D7500. The 51 focus points, 15 being cross sensors, really allow me to capture exceptional portraits, and the tracking capabilities allows me to snap shots of my 7 and 10 year old while they are playing baseball, football, and hockey. Also, the speed is fantastic! I seldom find myself stopping to wait for the camera to catch up. I love that the aperture and the shutter speed have dedicated dials...this makes it easy to adjust them quickly. I also find changing the white balance, metering, and ISO to be much easier...no more going to the main menu to adjust settings! The only thing I am slightly disappointed in is this cameras low light capabilities. Many reviews I read talked about this cameras exceptionable low light capabilities and how there is little grain even with a high ISO, but I find many of my photos are grainy in low light situations. Overall, I love this camera!

I have been using the D7500 for about six months. So far it has been a huge upgrade over my D5500. The low light capabilities is much improved. The focusing system is very good. I have used it with my two Sigma lens (18-35 F1.8, 50-100 F1.8) with no complaints. The extra dials and buttons are a huge help when changing settings. I have read several people complaining about the lack of a second card slot as well not having the ability to install a battery grip. Those issues do not impact me. I have been 100% happy with this purchase.

Major step up from my d5500. Excellent image quality. Ergonomics are well thought out. New deep grips are much better in my opinion. Overall it’s missing a few things compared to d7200 but I think the new tech is worth it. Focus is very fast and the auto fine tune is excellent for screw drive af and af-d lenses. Battery life is incredible compared to any mirrorless I’ve used. If you have Nikon dx glass you can’t go wrong with this body.

I bought this to replace a D7100. I really like the articulating screen. 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.

I started using Nikons DSLRs since 2004 when the D70 came out. I enjoyed that camera and took many nice photos with it. After using D7100, D5300, D60, D90, D610, and D7000, which I also used a lot, I debated if I should go for D7200. Interestingly, the timing of the D7500 was great. What attracted me was the touch screen, which I have on my Lumix GX85, and the it seemed to me that the image quality between D7500 and D7200 is negligible. I also like the higher weight than the D7100. For those who complain about the plastic body, it doesnt bother me one bit because I wanted to use this camera for my travels. Surprisingly, upon testing it, the jpeg image quality comes out of this camera is better than the D610, which has the full-frame sensor. Unless I plan to make giant prints, crop sensor is perfectly fine for me. I also like the dedicated ISO button next to the shutter on the top deck; its just easier for me. Just like all other 7xxx series Nikons, it also takes F/X lenses. I have tried the old 20mm F/X lens on this and the images came out great. The auto focus is just as fast as with D/X lenses. I will be using the D7500 for quite a while.

My last Nikon was the D80, so the D7500 has many more features to learn and use. I am able to use my old Nikon lenses and switched to a wrist strap (see #1) and a protector for the back display (#2). I had to upgrade my memory cards (#3) so that they are faster and store more for video capture. Finally, I got a very portable and adaptable tripod which will work with my iPhone and D7500. 1) Camera Hand Strap - Rapid Fire Heavy Duty Safety Wrist Strap by Altura Photo w/ 2 Alternate Connections for Use w/ Large DSLR or Point & Shoot Cameras 2) Camera Screen Protector for Nikon D7500 ,MYECOGO Tempered Glass Clear Film 0.3mm 9H Ultra-clear for Nikon DSLR Camera(Nikon D7500) 3) Lexar Professional 633x 64GB SDXC UHS-I/U1 Card with Image Rescue 5 Software - LSD64GCB1NL6332 (2 Pack) 4) iPhone Tripod, Phone Tripod with Bluetooth Remote Control,Phone Mount Adapter,Gopro Adapter for iPhone,Smartphone,Camera,Gopro by Fotopro

I was amazed at the picture quality delivered over my nice but aging D7000. At first I questioned the need to pay for this upgrade. But after seeing the results, I am so pleased. The body is about the same but much lighter in weight. Autofocus is fast. Dont really miss the second card slot which is a big negative by many. I just bought a 64GB card and I never come close to needing the memory. I can see why professionals and wedding photographers miss the backup but they probably opt for the D500 for other reasons. Very happy Nikon customer.

I had a D3200 for 7 years and it was rpthe time to upgrade. I Was comparing D7200 and D7500. Ultimately bought D7500, as I wanted extra features like wi-fi and Bluetooth. Superb picture quality. Critics says low performance in low light levels. But I am very pleased with the performance of this camera even under low light ( I am not a pro, but I know photography). Wi-fi helps to automatically download 2MB pictures to unlimited Nikon cloud space using my mobile phone, this is very important to me as I am sharing my pictures with my family and I dont need to worry about the size reduction of the images. Then I download all my pictures manually to a different folder in my computer. Overall very happy with the camera.

like you didnt know that already. Still early on for me, but so far, I would say Im most impressed with the low-light images. I wont bother posing any, since there are plenty of online reviews. 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.
