5.0 out of 5 stars It's a good upgrade from D7000

2026-02-02    -impetusera

I've had the D7000 since 2011 and always found it hit or miss as far as focus goes. Spent a lot of time taking pictures of brick walls, angled rulers and focus charts trying to dial in AF fine tune. I got it as good as I could and could get sharp photos out of it but at times regardless of all that I'd get some images that were off or just overall seemed soft. At the time the D7000 was considered a good low light camera but I found this is where it struggled with focus the most. I was a bit disappointed to see the D7500 dropped to a single SD card slot and no longer incorporated magnesium in the frame construction. For those reasons I tried to pickup a new D7200 but apparently missed the boat and none were to be had (aside from refurb or import). Ultimately I caved in and went with the D7500 as the D500 is a good chunk of extra money and would require an external flash. I don't abuse things I own so magnesium frame components aren't a necessity to me and though dual card slots would be nice also aren't a necessity. I haven't had a card go bad ever and I'm not a professional photographer so I don't require the redundancy. If I were making profit from my photos I would be paying more for the body with dual card slots. I don't agree with the statements that the D7500 is a step back from the D7200, it's more like a diagonal step forward. There are improvements that have been made that make it better than a D7200 but it has moved in a different direction than the D7000, 7100 and 7200 previous models. It is now the advanced consumer camera the D7xxx line was meant to be rather than the lite version of a professional model. Overall I'm very pleased with it and glad I got it instead of a D7200. I don't have the focus issues I saw with the D7000 and the low light performance is vastly superior to that of the D7000. It also has full support for the new AF-P lenses which I picked up a refurb 18-55 vr for a very low price. The focus speed of the AF-P lenses is near instant and for video has no detectable noise unlike the AF-S that make ridiculously loud noise while slowly dialing in to focus that is picked up by the built-in camera microphone. I also found the AF-P lens to take incredibly sharp photos which kind of surprised me since it's a "cheap" plastic mount kit lens.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great camera even though model is 8 years old

The D7500 came out in 2017, is one of Nikons higher quality models from that time. Does not have latest tech compared to latest cameras or even phones. But for my needs, its almost perfect. Excellent viewfinder, awesome battery life (typical of dslr's, and one of the advantages over mirrorless cameras). So easy to get a great image. Fast accurate auto-focus. I prefer Program mode, but when in Auto mode, you can still get amazing, dependably sharp lower noise photos. The lens (18-140mm) it comes with is awesome, great image quality at all focal lengths. I bought an older model, because it was new (hard to find this model new anymore), on deep discount (at least compared to price when released in 2017), and was the higher quality model I was looking for. Lens and camera body are weather resistant. Great movie quality, too. I almost always use 4k, I'm ok with 30 fps., (though many newer models have 4K 60fps) movie image quality is clear, sharp, pleasing.It is certainly larger than a compact camera, but I can't afford one of the better compact models out now, and even many full frame cameras are now smaller than the D7500. What with Tariffs and general inflation, good cameras are VERY expensive now. I must admit I am partial to Nikon, and I wanted a camera with a decent range telephoto lens. This camera tiks all the boxes important to me, I extremely happy with it. The lens is fairly compact for an 18-140mm configuration, is just an outstanding lens.
