The end results are what we are after though... picture quality. For action, sports... this might be a great camera. For landscapes... the 20.9 mp sensor doesn't compare to the sony 24mp of the nikon d7200 If someone only wanted this for travel... then the d7500 along with the lightweight afp f4.5-5.6 lenses would be great. They claim better high ISO in this sensor... I still got a lot of noise without noise reduction software at 6400. It was fine where I normally shoot 100-3200. Someone at Nikon was on crack when they said it would do 51,200 and then even going up to 1,640,000. Not in the real world... sorry. I would recommend this camera to someone who just entered the photography world and didn't have any equipment. This is a camera they can spend time learning. I would not recommend this to someone who was looking to upgrade from a d7200</span></p><p><span style="color: #2D2E32"></span></p><p><span style="color: #2D2E32">[/FONT]</span></p></blockquote><p></p>
