The D500 is among the best DSLRs we've ever tested. Its strengths are its superlative autofocus combined with the ability to keep shooting at 10 frames per second. There are other APS-C cameras that offer similarly excellent image quality but none that offer the speed, ergonomics and dependability...

Nikon D500 Review

I never did completely lose faith. I think in the end it was probably just myself, Thom Hogan and one or two others – the true believers. Nikon would give us a legitimate successor to the D300S.

At last the Camera that we have been waiting for

Took it out yesterday, straight out of the box and I was immediately impressed by the speed and ease with which it locked focus on my running, chasing lurchers and some birds buffeted by the winds. This, combined with excellent fps speed is great for my work.
Pros:
  • Amazing Autofocus
  • Easy To Use
  • Good Fps
  • Great Image Quality

Nikon D500

The D500 is Nikon's new flagship DX-format (APS-C) camera. We were waiting a long time for Nikon to produce an update for the D300S, so much so that it has skipped a number and gone straight to D500.

Nikon D500 review

Back in 2007, Nikon unleashed a pair of DSLRs that revitalised its line-up and re-established the company as being at least on a par with its rival Canon. The professional-level D3 was its first full-frame model, with super-fast shooting and an impressive 51-point AF system.
Pros:
  • Remarkable autofocus system
  • Excellent build quality and handling
  • Fine image quality at both low and high ISO settings
Cons:
  • Large and heavy compared to APS-C peers
  • Much less capable when used in live view
  • SnapBridge connectivity doesn't work well (yet

Nikon D500 review: The best APS-C DSLR ever made?

It's been a long time since Nikon launched the D300, a camera that arrived at roughly the same time as the very first iPhone. Yep, that long ago. That camera's successor, the D300S, hit the market last decade too.
Pros:
  • Fully realised autofocus system
  • fast shooting and huge buffer
  • great image quality
  • smaller and more manageable than D5
  • tilt-angle touchscreen
  • ups its video capabilities (including 4K
Cons:
  • "Hi" ISO settings aren't useful - they're just headline grabbers
  • screen isn't fully variable
  • touchscreen inaccessible for menu controls
