I used to have that combo. no problems at allDoes the Sigma 17-50 lens have an issue with a D7200? If not, that would be the direction I would look at.
Are there any D7500 users that know if the sigma 17-50mm lens has the scroll issue with this camera?
I am a d7100 user looking to add a cheap d7500 and curious if the sigma still has this issue with the d7500.

Not sure I understand what the D7200 has to do with compatibility between this lens and the D7500. Not all lenses that work on the D7200 are compatible with the D7500. That's one of the downsides of the D7500.Does the Sigma 17-50 lens have an issue with a D7200? If not, that would be the direction I would look at.

The scroll issue is mentioned here:

I have a grip on my d7100 too and I do like that and realize the D7500 can't have one.
Vello makes one but most likely it won't work like Nikon branded ones for other bodies. I think the D7500 is missing a connection on the bottom of the body that grips use so Vello came out with some type of work-around solution.

I don't use the scroll option so have no idea what to suggest. Good luck with whatever you choose.
The focus points are actually the same on the D7100 and D7500
(51 with 15 cross type).
But the difference is in the metering. The D7500 has the same metering system as the d500 and some other pro bodies.
The D7500 has the same autofocus system as the D500, just with fewer focus points. It is significantly more sophisticated than the D7200s AF system. The D7500 also has group autofocus mode, which is really nice for birds in flight.
