First, I sold the D7500 last month to get the Z6. Wonderful “upgrade”
So I had a D7100 for just over 4 years. I got it pretty much when it was launched. Fabulous camera and when I felt it was time to upgrade, I was thinking fx . But I liked the D7500 specs, and while others said it wasn’t an upgrade, I went ahead. I found the IQ impressive and the controls much better than the D7100. I wasn’t disappointed in the D7500 in any way. I had a number of lenses, but my go to was the 18-300mm.
One card slot didn’t matter a hoot. I’m an amateur, so wasn’t constrained by the need for backups that a pro might have, but having said that, I’ve never lost an SD card.
As for controls, the D7500 gave me everything. I’m sure a lot more than the D7100. I was in M mode 100% ... a joy to use.
If I could have, I’d have kept it with the z6, but I needed to get the cash to pay for the z , shame, but having had the z6 for a month, no regrets whatsoever.
