[QUOTE="mikew_RIP, post: 522635, member: 14174"] I think you are way wrong :D i have had the D7100 now got the 7200 and it is way ahead,i expect the D500 to be ahead of the D7200 so it will out shine the D7100,its far from a niche camera there are a lot of bird and sport photographers will want one apart from the general photographers who get one just because they can afford the best. There is a lot of rubbish talked about FX being the ultimate goal and an upgrade from DX,it is for some shooters but not all,the less resolution as you put it is one of the things that will make it a good camera,so long as nikon have tamed the noise to the degree they claim. Every upgraded DX sees improvement in AF this one is a leap,it has 37 focus points that can work at F6,3 cant remember what mine has but its only 2 or 3,25 of these points are the cross sensor type which are more likley to lock focus,yes focusing at f6.3 is important to the majority of sport,wildlife and general photographers that cant afford long fast glass.
