Same AF system as the topend D5
10fps shooting for 200 raw files
Metal
Weathersealed body
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.
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

20Mp rather than 24Mp
Snapbridge is a clunky disappointment. Making a connection between camera and phone is difficult
Terrible wireless file-transfer and remote-control app
And its Live View (contrast) autofocus could use a boost
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...

Terrible wireless file-transfer and remote-control app, and its Live View (contrast) autofocus could use a boost

At last Nikon has a professional-level APS-C format camera to replace the D300S and compete with the Canon 7D Mark II and it looks like a real contender with an impressive AF system and great low-light credentials...
Cropped 4K video, Less than stellar video/Live View autofocus, Limited touchscreen functionality
The Nikon D500 is one of my all-time favorite Nikon DSLRs thanks to its excellent image quality and performance. Enthusiasts and even newcomers who want to step up to a higher end APS-C camera can do so thanks to its more affordable price.Although it’s mo...
