[QUOTE="sonicbuffalo_RIP, post: 617279, member: 21543"] You can only rehash something so much before it gets lackluster. That being said, I think Nikon is shooting itself in the ass again by not including an option for a grip on the 7500 line. Nikon is going backwards in all of it's development of several of its new bodies. Number 1, no second SD slot, #2, no opportunity for a grip. That signifies that to me, Nikon has hit a crossroads where those options are going to mean that they're premium bodies if they come ready to fire on all cylinders. Nikon doesn't want to create a problem free body because that would stop the hunt for the perfect camera. That would dramatically slow sales. So, when Nikon gets to a certain point in development, they choose to go back to the beginning. I kinda wish I hadn't sold my D7100 now. It was a great camera for what it was. The D500 has more features, sure, but it too, has it's limitations. It has a red headed stepchild in having two different card slot sizes. What kind of mental freak decided on that kind of solution?
