  • Nikon D500 är snabb. Den känns riktigt snabb i autofokusen, riktig snabb i hanteringen, riktigt snabb i användandet, och med 10 bilder per sekund i seriebildstagning. Nu har jag inte hunnit testa på några snabba objekt ännu, men det ser ut som om Nikon D5...

  • Strøken bildekvalitet og nær perfekt ergonomi, gir deg teknisk gode bilder, høy brukervennlighet og stor grad av fleksibilitet
  • Noe begrensninger i videofunksjoner, som beskjæring av formatet i 4K-modus, manglende fokushjelp på manuellfokus og overivrig støydemping på jpeg-filer

  • Eksemplarisk billedkvalitet og næsten perfekt ergonomi giver dig teknisk gode billeder, stor brugervenlighed og en høj grad af fleksibilitet
  • Nogle begrænsninger af videofunktionerne, såsom beskæring af formatet i 4K-tilstand. Manglende fokushjælp ved manuel fokusering og overivrig støjreduktion på jpeg-filer
  • Nikon har holdt os på pinebænken længe, men efterfølgeren til D300s er ventetiden værd. Selv når man sammenligner med de argeste konkurrenters tilsvarende spejlreflekskameraer, er D500 måske det bedste kamera, vi har testet – ud over full-frame kameraer...
