[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 616538, member: 24569"] I agree with most of what you are saying.The D7500 does, though, have the same resolution as the D500. (20.9) I understand that people want all the goodies that the D500 has, but you aren't going to get that for $800 less. Meanwhile, I do have to scratch my head when Nikon chooses only one card slot and no vertical grip. I was fortunate to have the money when the D500 came out, and I am extremely happy with that camera. The large buffer and fast frame rate of the D7500 would have been enough to win me over had I not been able to afford the D500, though. I think it's a pretty nice set of features for the money. That, of course, being said without ever having touched or seen one in real life. :) I would tell people interested in this kind of camera, though, to keep an eye out for refurbished D500s. The D500 is a truly wonderful camera, and refurbs can occasionally be found in the $1500 range. [/QUOTE]
