[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 588989, member: 25095"] Let's hope Samsung wasn't brought in to design the D500's battery components. I really don't think there's anything sinister at play here. The D4/D5 don't have built-in pop-up flash, so my estimation is that's what Nikon was thinking when they rolled out the DX version of the D5 ... keep it the same. After all, there are people like me who are refusing to jump on the D750/D7200 train because of the compromised weatherproofing that the tilt screen introduced, so possibly Nikon is wanting to point to doing away with the onboard flash that I never used to show me they are listening. Or maybe today I'm off my meds and caffeine deficient, leading me to be more optimistic than my usual pessimistic self would be. :) [/QUOTE]
