[QUOTE="Theraphosa, post: 551636, member: 32175"] No worries, feel free to post them. I love many aspects of the D500. I'm not sure any single one of them was worth the price of that upgrade (as compared to a D7200 or D610 for instance). It is a tremendous upgrade in ISO performance. However, if that were the only thing I was interested in, a D610 or D750 might have been a better deal. But the fact that you get that performance in a DX format (no new lenses required), is pretty sweet! On the other hand, if you look at the camera, in total, I'm very happy with it and it's potential. The ergonomics, the performance, all of the newest "bells and whistles" (like Bluetooth and WiFi); all make it worthwhile for me and my application. I'm extremely satisfied with it, but I'm not sure everyone would be as happy with it. I get that. Personally, my only complaint so far, is the lack of support in LR5 for the NEF format.
