My D80 died after only 10,000 shutter actuations (mind you about 12 years old) so I needed a new camera in a hurry. The camera is used to capture people and groups in workshops so the lighting is usually awful and good quality head shots with a longish lens are important. I use an old SB 800 flash.

I got the refurbished one at $599 which is a very good price for the value right now, This D7500 is for travel photography and hiking trail. I purchased Nikon AFP 70-300mm FX lens with this camera.I have used nikon 35mm f1.8 dx lens with d7500.I love and happy with that combo especially.

Purchased at the begining of 2019 whilst on sale, absoloutly blown away by the burst speed and the low light performance. Incredible image quality, and the video is quiet good aswell. Highly recomended for any Pro-sumer, although look around and see if you can get one on sale.

Great camera

I had been looking to upgrade to this camera for a while and couldn't beat Harvey Norman for price. Extremely happy with this camera so far.

Does everything you want it too. Superb low light performance Highly recommend

Initially purchased the D5600, but quickly realized it was too basic for me. Upgrades to the D7500 and absolutely love it. Great camera for an amateur photographer with lots of setting and options that are similar to professional level cameras.

The Nikon D7500 features the 20.9 megapixel APS-C (DX) sensor from the Nikon D500 and offers 8fps continuous shooting, a 51-point AF system, 4K UHD video recording, and a tilting 3.2inch touch-screen.

Excellent image quality (particularly with prime lenses; Excellent noise performance; In-camera raw processing; Bluetooth image transfer; Dual-axis electronic level; 8fps continuous shooting; Improved ergonomics; 3.2inch tilting touch-screen; 4K UHD video recording

Single SD card slot; No white priority AWB option; Limited remote shooting app; Live view focus slower than some competition; Slow to transfer full-size images via Bluetooth

I am especialy enjoying the speed of autofocus, the crisp sharp images and learning so many new features available.

It's no longer the DX-format flagship, but the Nikon D7500 is nevertheless an extremely capable camera, and comes with a pricetag that's much more affordable than the D500, despite including the same imaging pipeline and many of the same features.

New carbon fiber body is light, compact and very comfortable; Same excellent image quality as the flagship D500; Quick 8.2 frames per second burst shooting with generous buffer; Very fast, accurate autofocus; Tilting touch-screen display; Very good battery life; Records ultra high-def 4K and 60fps...

White balance tends warm under incandescent lights; Only a single flash card slot; Doesn't support portrait / battery grip accessories; No rear infrared receiver any more; non-CPU AI lenses will be manual only; 4K video comes with a heavy crop; Movie AF is prone to hunting, Extended ISO...
