[QUOTE="FLIGHTO, post: 618113, member: 12569"] I made the switch from the D7100 as well. Can I tell a difference in IQ....No. Can you tell it has less resolution in any normal situation....No. Maybe a touch better dynamic range but nothing major. In some cases I though the D7100 brought out more detail. Color output out of camera is better to my eye....not that the D7100 was bad. I can say the ISO performance is much improved from the 7100 although anything over 6400 ISO is still too noisy to me but I am really conservative in ISO. ISO is really a marketing ploy these days. I am very confident shooting 4000 indoors no problem where as 3200 ISO was my max on the D7100 and that was pushing it. Detail does fall off quick at higher ISO especially when cropping but that's true of most cameras at high ISO......but at least you get the shot. I had to train myself to shoot tighter at higher ISO. I must say the pro body is enough for me to recommend making the switch. Is it costly....yes.. Would I make the same decision again....absofrigginlutely. If it's financially feasible to invest in the D500 I say go for it but be warned you will not be blown away by greater IQ alone.
