Very good quality images from 20 Megapixel APSC sensor, 153-point AF system with very broad coverage and auto fine-tuning, 10fps shooting with deep buffer, especially with XQD cards, Large, bright viewfinder with LCD overlays, Tough weatherproof body, Sup
Poor movie autofocus, no focus peaking, no 1080 above 60p, Very basic smartphone remote control, SnapBridge bottleneck when shooting bursts or copying 20MP images, 4k video involves a tight 1.5x crop – a total field reduction of 2.25x, No truly silent sho
The D500 marks Nikon's welcome return to the high-end APSC DSLR market. The combination of a new 20 Megapixel sensor, 10fps continuous shooting, a deep buffer (especially if you're using XQD cards), and a new 153-point AF system shared with the D5, makes...
Abstract: I buy only from these approved sources. I can't vouch for ads below.The Nikon D500 is the fastest DX camera ever from Nikon: 10 frames per second. It is the first consumer Nikon that's worthwhile considering for serious sports shooting.It has the same AF...
Superb image quality; Great high ISO performance; Rugged, comfortable camera body; Sharp articulating touchscreen display; Excellent AF point frame coverage; Fast continuous shooting speeds; 4K UHD video; Built-in Wi-Fi, NFC and Bluetooth,
Somewhat large for an APS-C camera; Expensive for a DX camera; 4K UHD video doesn't offer full DX field-of-view; No built-in flash; Still uses contrast-detect for Live View AF; Dual slots use two different card types (XQD and SD),
The Nikon D500's range of features and excellent performance make it the best APS-C DSLR you can buy.It's a chunky camera, designed to produce good images in a range of different conditions. Those experienced enough to be au fait with all the different se...
Whichever way you look at it the D500 is, to all intents and purposes, an ‘APS-C' format D5. It borrows so much from the full-35mm sensor camera that the differences in performance – both camera-related and image-related – are negligible and, in fact, the...
The Nikon D500 is fast with excellent continuous-shooting and autofocus performance, its 4K video support is a welcome novelty for its dSLR price class and, of course, there's the great photo quality
Terrible wireless file-transfer and remote-control app, and its Live View (contrast) autofocus could use a boost
There's tons to like about the Nikon D500, from its fast shooting and excellent image quality to its broad feature set and streamlined design. But it still falls short with its Live View autofocus and seriously subpar wireless file transfer and shooting...
The review camera fulfilled our expectations for a flagship APS-C DSLR camera and comes with most (if not all) the functions a serious enthusiast or professional photographer would require. In general, it's a worthwhile step up from the D300s it replaces...

Image quality is excellent with noisefree high ISO images. The ergonomics are the best and Nikon is providing a decent live view experience with limited touch screen functions. Tracking auto focus is very good.
Snapbridge is a clunky disappointment. Making a connection between camera and phone is difficult
The 12 megapixel D300 was released in 2007 and has stayed in production with minor upgrades, testimony to the soundness of the fundamental design. The D...
