[QUOTE="pnomanikon, post: 747063, member: 43342"] [USER=47800]@bluzman[/USER] - Thank you! I appreciate you sharing your experience with these. My son also mentioned the dark viewfinder on his D5500. Looking at your photo really emphasizes the size (and certainly weight) differences between the three. The mirrorless looks like the one I would prefer to carry on a long day hiking and taking photos. Since the Z5 is about the same cost as the D500 (when you factor in the F-mount adapter), it's a hard toss-up between the performance of the D500 and the ease of use Z5. That and the short battery life of the Z5. Glad to hear you like your D7500. The 1 card vs 2 card issue is a strong preference, but certainly not a deal breaker. The second backup slot in my D7200 was comforting when traveling somewhere I might not get back to. Again, thanks for the info. Lots to process. Luckily, I am not in a big hurry. I'm hoping a huge sale (HA!) over the holidays might nudge me in one direction or the other. [/QUOTE]
