Successor to the much loved D7200, Nikon’s new APS-C ‘mid-level flagship’, the D7500 comes with exciting new features.
After the success of the D7200, and the launch of the D500 (the current pro-level flagship), Nikon had to ensure that the D7500 carved out a new top spot for itself in the mid-level segment. It borrows some leading technology from the D500, including its 20.9MP sensor and 180k pixel RGB metering system (used for subject recognition and AF).
Features
This sensor comes with a number of advantages... 4K UHD video capability being the most significant (albeit with a 1.5x crop... Nikon needs to figure that one out yet). It also allows a blazing 8fps (2fps more than the D7200) for 100+ JPEGs or 50 uncompressed RAW (thrice the buffer of the D7200). While it retains the same 51-point AF system as that of the D7200, AF capability is improved because of the new meter, particularly 3D tracking.
The D7500 has better weather sealing and comes with a tilting touch screen LCD, (unlike the D7200). The LCD is of a slightly lower resolution at 922k dots, than the 1.2M dots of the D7200, but the pixel density is the same. Live-view shooting is supported by the sensor’s contrast-detect AF.
