It is a better D810 for wildlife and sports shooters.
As usual my background so you can calibrate what your read. A long time Nikon user, since 70s, currently using a D810, D600 and D7100 to be replaced by the new D500. I shoot Wildlife both in the wild and in the streets. Now about this Camera. I will divide it to 3 parts. Image quality, Usability and software/wireless connectivity. From the quick few days, I can tell you that It is better than D7100, I skipped the D7200 since the Rumor was that this was coming. I tested the D500 against D7100 for ISO and general IQ performance. I would say If you are getting this camera to get improved IQ over D7100 or D7200 then you are not going to be that happy. You will not get $1000 better IQ from D500. This Camera is not about the IQ/sensor but it is all about usability, handling and build quality. This Camera is a Handling beast. It is all about handling and usability not about ISO or IQ. With 10 FPS, Huge Buffer and an AF system that is much better than D810. If you had a D700/D800/D810 this camera is similar in layout and but Light years a head in ergonomics and Handling. I hold judgement on Build quality being better than D700/D800/D810. It is lighter and feels like it is smaller than D810. All the changes are for the better. I thought the grip on D810 was great. But now, I know how much better it could have been. The Joystick is a joy to use and if you are a back button AF-on user then you will be in heaven. We get D5 class treatment here. The Joystick not only moves the AF point around and is much more comfortable to use but it also can activate the AF with a press just like the AF-on button. Why is that a good thing? Well because you can assign different AF mode to it. By assigning different AF mode to each button you can go back and forth between 2 different modes by just picking the button that activates the mode you want. So If you do Birds in flight and use Group AF or Auto Area AF using your AF-on button. But like to use single point AF when the birds land to get sharp eyes. All you have to do is to assign single point AF to the Joystick push button and use it. No more 2 handed Camera juggling with long lenses to change the AF mode. There is several improvements like this that has been added. The Articulating display is another welcome addition. The relocation of the ISO button is great but it seems to me that they have removed the Easy ISO capability (ability to use one of the command wheels to change ISO quickly). Assuming that since now we can change ISO with one hand you don't need it but why remove it. It is a mystery to me perhaps above my pay grade. Fortunately they kept the Easy Exposure Comp capability. The play back of images is so fast that you can take a burst of a 100 or so images and then play them back like a movie by holding the direction button. Silly to do but fun. All in all, this is one hell of camera and great value at this price. As I said buy this camera only if you need the handling, usability and build quality. since after all this is a crop sensor body and IQ will never be better than a full sensor body of the same era. Now about the Software and Wireless. It is there and not very impressive ... enough said. Snap-bridge is not available for iPhone, but fortunately we had an Android phone in the family to use to test it. Surprisingly it is stable and works. But the APP is lame and will do very little tethering functions. Otherwise if you are using your D500 to take a snap of your dinner and post it to the face book you are in luck. Other than that I am sure Nikon has plans but knowing their history with software I am sure it will be discontinued and replace by something else soon. eh... Now an odd thing. The first 2 batteries drained quickly. I was expecting the first one since Nikon uses a builtin battery for internal clock and usually it gets it's charge from your battery the first time you use the camera. But this thing kept draining the batteries. So a bit of digging showed that all the wireless capabilities are on. WiFi, BT, NF etc. There is a Airplane mode but it is set to off by default. Why? Don't know. Perhaps again above my pay grade. I turned all that junk off and it seems all is well. But last time I thought all was well I ended up sending my D800 back to Nikon after 3 weeks of getting it. I am hopeful for both our's and Nikon's sake. Hope this help some of you like me who were waiting for a D810 with Crop sensor for wildlife and sports shooting and were willing to pay the same price as a D810, as I was. We got all we wanted and then some for 1/3 less than what we were expecting to pay. Nikon please bring back the Easy ISO... pretty please. Mike Update 4-28-2016: Good news, Bad news, Good news the battery consumption issue is a none issue. The AF is wicked good, The buffer is limitless for all practical purposes. 60+ shots of large Raw+JPEGs high quality using Sony XQD G cards. We will be going broke buying hard drives. The AF and the buffer alone is worth the extra $1000 for anyone who needs them. The bad news, I found out during the battery consumption testing that none of the after market batteries will work with this camera. Do not buy after market batteries with this camera. I tried 3 different brands of high quality batteries that I have been using with my D810/D600/D7100 and all had worked like a charm, but none of them works with D500 at all.

Absolutely excellent camera
This is a beauty of a camera. It is huge and very heavy, but that weight comes from lots of finely tuned camera perfection. The tilting screen feels secure and sturdy when in use, and the convenience of the tilt saves my back during long days of shooting. The touch screen works fairly well -- maybe slightly less responsive than an iPhone. However, the touch screen is a great feature because it allows you to zoom in to 100% on a picture to check for focus and then skip from picture to picture to compare focus without having to zoom in on each picture. The touch screen can also be useful to autofocus in live mode. It's not as quick as normal autofocus, but it works if you have one extra second. I'm coming from a Nikon D5000 series, so there are several features that are very nice upgrades. I like the back-lit buttons on the camera, and I've made good use of the buttons that can be customized to control specific functions. I already enjoyed this camera, but then realized how great it is when I worked a few weddings with friends shooting Canon full frame cameras. It pained them to admit it, but they both noticed how much faster my burst mode collected shots and how much better the image quality was in low light. Again, this is in comparison to Canon full frame options. Not bad for a Nikon crop sensor. I purchased the camera body initially, but I then added the 16-80mm that comes in most kits, and that lens is also excellent. This is an expensive camera, but I have been very happy that I splurged and got this instead of the new D7500.

All-around great camera and amazing DX camera in low-light situations
The Nikon D500 is an awesome DSLR. Being a DX camera, I was a little concerned about the low-light performance of the sensor -- the 1.5x crop factor has never bothered me. However, the D500 is incredible at outside night and also inside with little lighting. I get usable, high-quality, low-noise images at 10,000 ISO with a little help of noise reduction in Adobe Lightroom. If I'm just using a photo to post to Instagram or other low-quality image platforms, I can easily use an image shot at 25,600 ISO. After traveling to Paris and Rome, and watching the Bastille Day fireworks at night and visiting museums with less-than-ideal lighting for photography, I am completely impressed with the camera's ability to function in varying lighting conditions. The autofocus system on the camera is also unbelievable. I often shoot in single-point AF, but when I've used the continuous 3D AF tracking for my dogs or moving subjects, it rarely does not capture them in focus. Coupled with the maximum 10 frames per second, it's hard not to get the shot you wanted for subjects in motion. The build quality of the D500 is also superb. It feels sturdy but not ridiculously heavy or overdone. The placement of buttons (like ISO, focus point knob, etc.) are very intuitive and natural to use. To be honest, I don't really use the touchscreen except to zoom in on image previews. Even when scrolling through images, I still naturally use the button because the touchscreen scrolls in the opposite direction of an iPhone (if you swipe left on the D500, it scrolls back, whereas on the iPhone, it scrolls forward...this is just my personal preference). Also, being an iOS user, it's a bit annoying that the SnapBridge app and functionality on the camera is still not available -- although, it is available for Android users. Other than those small, insignificant things, I really have nothing negative to say about the D500. Moreover, the D750 (a full-frame camera) is similarly priced, but you do not get the features that the D500 packs. If if you want the full-frame equivalent of the D500 -- the D5 -- you would have to shell out another $4,500 on top of the D500's $2000 price tag. If crop factor is not an issue for you, then the Nikon D500 is the perfect camera for someone who is either an enthusiast or semi-professional. Hope this helps.

Best DX camera in the market !!
I bought my D300 back in 2008 and I paid 2k for it. It was a great camera but I had to sell it because the expected replacement ( D400 ) was never made by Nikon, so I decided to go with FX and I bought the D750. When this camera D500 was announced, I decided to buy it right away and I do not regret. I am paying for it the same price I paid for my beloved D300 but this one is way better than my D300. Excellent AF system, excellent frame rate are just some of the positive things about this camera. The most important things for me is the AF system which is superb. Once you lock on your subject, it won't fail as far as you continue keeping your focus point on the subject as it moves. It does not matter if you are using d25, d72, Group or 3D tracking, it will continue focusing at 10fps and it won't fail at all. You will have more keepers than not. It does not matter if something is in front or back of your subject, the camera will continue focusing on your subject rather than being fooled by things around your subject. It is simple amazing and it is very fun to use. You can also use this camera for low light photography. Personally, I will not use it above ISO 6400 but that way above the ISO that you could use with the D300 or any other DX camera in the market today. The camera feels secure in your hand and you have the feeling that you are in control all the time. Even though we are missing the U1 and U2, I still give it a 5 stars review. I do recommend it to whoever want to have the best DX camera out there.

Great camera!
I have a D850 and wanted another body for action and wildlife. I researched the matter fairly deeply. I have Nikon lenses and wanted to stick to brand (for all the talk about the differences and abilities of other brands, particularly Sony. I didn't want to find myself in their universes needing their lenses with the paltry differences that this might make in the resultant photographs that would result. I considered the Z6II and Z7 II until reading that they are particularly unsuitable for lateral action shots (like animals running or birds flying) because they don't have a constant track through the viewfinder. Many professional reviewers who otherwise praise these cameras has confessed to this flaw. I've no idea how they're going to fix this issue in the future, but it was a deal breaker for me. There was also the problem of the short battery life with the Nikon "Z" models. So, I looked at the D500 and found many good reviews. About the only down side I could find was that relatively small sensor (~21MP), which given the extra reach in telephoto mode would provide the equivalent of roughly a 32MP on a FX sensor. Still not up to the level of my D850 when reaching out with the long lens for clarity on a distant subject, but given the nimbleness of the camera (instant subject acquisition, the 9 fps shooting speed, and its other features, it was my choice. The D500 also has the same menu and selection (hardware on camera) systems as the D850. I bought the camera through Amazon from a dealer in Japan. It had 25,000 shots on it; this, for a shutter having a life expectancy of 200,000 shots. It was a little under $1,200.00 including tax. I'd have bought a new one, but they'd been on backorder and I needed to get it before I got any older. Bottom line: I love the camera. Go to your favorite critic and listen to all the good things. They're true. You can't beat this gem. Mirrorless is currently being hyped as the greatest new thing because the SLR market had been dying and they needed something to sell people who need to spend their money. Same thing is happening with the prime lens market. Need to sell people on some latest and greatest lens that is f1.2 rather than f1.4. How will people photos improve? Who knows? I bought my first Canon 10D in 2003, got rid of all my Canon equipment in 2005 for Fuji S3 Pro (a wonderful camera for its time), then to Nikon in 2006. I've seen a lot of changes. I've taken a lot of great pictures with the Fuji and Nikon D200 professionally. Nikon has served me well. This D500 is at the pinnacle of what they offer for its purpose.

Finally there's a real DX choice in the upgrade path, besides Full Frame.
I my opinion the best all around digital camera. This is a real camera. No waiting. It focuses and takes the shot right when you press the shutter. Equal to the D5. Faster focus than any other pro camera Nikon makes at the time of this review. Focus speed is amazing. It is also super customizable. So, go way beyond default settings. Dig into it. This camera has options most Pros never thought of. Many "Pros" (people who earn money with their craft), are specialized into respective niches. This tool is highly adaptable to many specialized situations, and has "banks" to store those specialized menus. Many "Aha!" moments reading the manual, and viewing YouTube secrets. The build is solid / heavy duty. Weather resistant. This camera also blurs the results between a crop sensor camera, and a full frame. In the hands of an artist /craftsman, the image quality difference can be undetectable when compared to the D750 full frame. The only visual difference, during high magnification "pixel peeping", is the noise levels are higher in certain specific circumstances in the D500. But, one second of post de-noising, in a program like Lightroom or Topaz, makes this indistiguishable. Plus, the file size is managable compared to full frame hard drive eaters. As in the case of even the much respected D810, the D500 performs way better mechanically, as a camera. Many argue that as a Portrait or Landscape camera, the full frame models are superior. I believe the truth in it lies in the camera operator. And their experience in lighting, composition, and software savy. Another factor is the "Glass" you put on the camera. So, if you're deciding between moving up to, say a full frame D750, now you can consider a different path. Upgrade to a D500. Unless you are building a professional indoor Portrait studio. Then save up a bit more for a D810. Or just wait to see what Nikon brings out next. My "Kit" includes D500, Nikkor DX 17-55mm f2.8G ED, Tokina DX 11-16mm f2.8 Pro, Nikkor DX 35mm 1.8 prime. Keep your crop sensor lenses.

This years best DSLR.
Lets start off this review by taking a look at the build quality of the Nikon D500. The first thing you feel when you pick up the D500 is just how big it is. But to me that’s not a bad thing at all. It feels incredibly solid and moulds to your hand really quite well. It’s not actually as heavy as you’d think and is on par to something like the 7d mark ii. To me the D500 has some of the best button placement that I’ve seen on on a Nikon body. Everything is where you’d expect to find it, with your record, iso and exposed compensation buttons up the top here near the shutter button. On the side we’ve got a number of different ports, but we’ll talk more about them later on. There isn’t an inbuilt flash on the d500 and a few poepl might miss it, but for me on a pro body like this, it’s not a big deal. As you’d expect for a camera of this calibre, the d500 is weather sealed so you’re going to have no problems taking this out in the rain. So overall in terms of build quality, the d500 is one of the best I’ve seen in a long time. - Let’s turn the camera around now and take a look at the lcd screen on the back. And something new and probably unexpected is that nikon have included an articulating screen on the d500. Now to be fair, it’s not a full articulating screen like you find on cameras such as the canon 80d, but it is pretty useful still. You can flip it up and down which has been really useful for composing my shots. It does feel pretty solid, but i do worry a little bit about the hinge its on. It doesn’t seem pretty thin so it’ll be interesting to see just how well it holds up. Photos from the the 20 megapixel sensor look really great on the back of the screen even in bright daylight. Other than that though the screen is very bright and sharp. I’ve been seeing this trend lately with Nikon producing some really good screens and the d500 continues with it as well. - One feature I love on the Nikon D500 and one that’s a bit of a life saver is not eh side here, that’s it dual card slots. This might not seem like a big feature, but having the ability to back up your photos is huge, especially if you’re shooting important one time events like weddings. To me this should be a given in any pro level body, but it is still nice to see. - The viewfinder on the D500 has 100% coverage as you’d expect as was nice to use. If you’re coming from a lower end nikon body, the shipe of it is a little different, but with it’s 1x magnification, it works very quite well. - Let’s talk quickly about the menus on the D500. If you’ve ever used a Nikon DSLR, you’ll feel right at home using the D500. The menus are pretty feature packed with a lot of different options, especially once you move into full manual mode. Performance was quick though and there was no lag which is good. - So i just wanted to touch on the battery life of the d500. I’ve been incredibly impressed with the battery life of this camera, although I would recommend using a battery grip if you are going to shooting photos all day or shooting 4k video. I got through about 1200 shots before the battery ran out on me. But overall, the battery life was very good on the nikon d500. - So let’s talk about the burst rate of the nikon d500. Now Nikon are touting this camera as being a real winner for sports and i’ve got to say it lives up to the hype. The d500 can shoot at an impressive 10 frames per second, which should be fast enough for most sports and wildlife. Just for reference sake, this is what 10 frames per second sounds like. This puts it on par with it’s biggest rival the Canon 7d mark ii which can also shoot at around 10 frames per second. I also found that the D500’s autofocus was incredible. Nikon have really upped their game and to me, the autofocus on the d500 is some of the best i’ve ever tested. You’ve also got a 200 raw shot buffer which is very nice. I’m going to be making a more in depth video on the autofocus of the d500 so check back soon for that, but overall it’s blisteringly fast. - Now I briefly touch on the ports on the camera earlier on, but i just wanted to show you what you get. Of course you’re getting a usb and an cdmi cable, but also in the middle hear you getting a mic and headphone jack. This to me, shows that nikon are really trying to convince more video shooters over to their side and it’s good to see. Havin gate ability to record good sound and monitor as well is really important, and makes this a pretty impressive little video camera, which we’ll talk about a little bit more now. - So let’s talk more about the Nikon D500 for video. As you probably know if you’re watching this video, the D500 can shoot 4k video. And i’ve got to say it’s incredibly impressive. The colours it reproduces are very nice and the detail is definitely there. Compred to something like the Canon 7d mark ii, the sharpness of the 4k to the 1080p really is night and day. Now one few drawback of the nikon d500 though is that it does crop the video quite a lot when shooting 4k. So if you do know you’re going to be wanting to shoot in 4k, you’ll want to make sure you have a wide enough lens. One other nice thing is that the d500 can shoot a full 30 minutes of video, cpmapred to just 3 minutes on the more expensive nikon d5. To me that’s a pretty big deal and something to consider if you are choosing between the two. One other nice feature is that you can create timelapses in the camera which is a lot of fun, and something that again emphasizes that Nikon is really trying to gain a bit more marketshare in the video market. SO overall, the Nikon d500 is actually a pretty capable video shooting machine, so good job nikon. - So i just quickly wanted to talk about wifi. The d500 comes with wifi and nfc included, which is great if you want to be able to quickly transfer your photos to your phone. This is something that the 7d mark ii misses out on, so again is something to consider.

A very difficult decision which has proven to be worthwhile.
After over 110K actuations on my D7000 (I'm not a pro), the temptation for greater low light abilities, "newsworthy" autofocus, better white balance, and overall more responsive results proved too enticing to resist. I like having so much of Nikon's top technology in a camera body that I can afford, and I would say that the experience of the D7000, which was quite good for its time, has helped me appreciate the direction which Nikon has taken over the years. Like many, I was torn between the D750 and this model. I'm not a sports photographer, and most of my "best" work is portraiture. However, what made the decision for me was not the trove of opinions about which camera should be used for what. It was the basic feeling of "what would I like my camera to do better?" When I answered that question (having gotten many thousands of gorgeous photos out of the D7000), I realized that what I needed was quicker performance from powering-on to shutter-release in challenging situations. Generally, I could get the photos I wanted with the older camera body. But, when I missed it was because the camera couldn't respond fast enough in low light -or that what came out was too full of noise and color distortions to "feel" like the moment I'd experienced in real-life. That situation is utterly gone now (so far...it's still early...). However, I would caution other users like me not to expect a perfectly smooth transition. The D7000 was absolutely second-nature to me after so many years. The D500 seems to show different slightly different defaults for color "tonalities," jpeg sharpness, saturation levels, and metering choices than what I was used to. Nothing bad -just not what I was expecting. So, I'm still in the process of doing "test" photos where I shoot the same scene, note my instincts for the settings, and watch how they translate onto the big monitor. Once I've learned how to get what I "see" in a situation, I'll have truly made the switch. More knowledgeable photographers might intuitively skip this step. Regardless, it's working for me. And, I actually have no regrets about choosing this over the full frame D750 (which I'm sure is also terrific). FYI, the only lens I use is the Sigma Art 35/1.4. No need for anything else. Good luck with your own decisions!

Todo Terreno
Después de 5 meses de uso ya estoy listo para dar mi comentario sobre esta cámara. Como dato debo decir que vengo de utilizar la D5500 de Nikon la cual pienso que es un camara excelente y con muy buenas prestaciones para ser una camara de entrada. Como fotografo aficionado de conciertos, nocturnas (astrofoto) y retratos no tenia queja de mi camara anterior pero decidí hacer el cambio dado a que mi camara se rompió por un accidente y me encontre con la disyuntiva de comprar una D500 o la D750 que estan casi al mismo precio en el momento que compre la D500. Pues decidí irme por la DX porque me vendian la idea de un auto enfoque de 1ra asi como rafagas de fotos de 10fps con un buffer increible y ademas grabacion en 4K con factor de recorte de 1.5x, ademas de un sensor de ultima generación. Detalles de la experiencia: -Solo despues de abrir la caja me di cuenta de la calidad del materia de construccion. el cuerpo hecho de aleacion de magnesio te da la impresion de tener un tanque entre las manos, la sensacion de calidad tanto en los botones, el acabado y en si en toda la interfaz física es de primer nivel. Los botones iluminados se agradecen enormemente para situaciones de nocturanas. El visor de pentaprisma es genial, enorme y cubre el 100%, lo que ves en el visor es lo que sale en la foto( contrario a mi anterior camara). Definitivamente se siente mas pesada pero no es ningun problema. -Tiene muchos botones configurables y el Joystick es una maravilla. Al principio pense que no lo utilizaria ya que estaba acostumbrado a usar el dial del punto de enfoque pero con el tiempo el Joystick se me ha vuelto indispensable y mas en situaciones como conciertos o eventos donde tengo que componer la fotografia rapidamente. -Sistema de AF: Este es un apartado super importante y lo que hace que la camara gane puntos enteros en la calificacion final. El enfoque en Servo Unico es excelente. retratos, paisajes , naturaleza etc no tiene falla pero donde quiero destacar es en el enfoque Servo Continuo, es increible la capacidad de la camara en situaciones de poca luz. He probado el AF-C en conciertos y del 100% de disparos en rafaga al artista puedo decir que el 99% de las tomas sale enfocada por no decir que el 100%, he tomado fotos a aves en pleno vuelo y las rafagas de fotos salen 100% enfocadas. Hay que destacar que la camara tiene opcion de AJUSTE FINO PARA LENTES. Tu instalas un lente X y la camara hace un test al lente y calibra el FRONT o el BACK FOCUS que pueda tener para asegurar el exito de el enfoque. -Enfoque en video: aqui es donde adolece la camara, el sistema de seguimiento de enfoque durante video no es destacable pero la calidad de 4K es genial considerando que hay un factor de recorte de 1.5 al tomar video l oque se traduce en que el sensor no se utiliza al 100% de su tamaño y solo se ocupa un porcentaje de el pero con esto se asegura una mayor nitidez en el video. cuando se cambia la resolucion del video a 1080 el sensor pasa a utilizarse al 100%. -ISO: he hecho pruebas en conciertos y se puede utilizar un iso maximo de 6400 con calidad aceptable, el grano de ruido ya aparece a estas instancias pero en ISO 5,000 tienes fotos de alta calidad y es controlable en lightroom muy facilmente. con un iso de 3200 el grano es imperceptible a 1600 es una foto muy nitida. Es de destacar que esta camara tiene un iso extendido de ISO 50 ! combinado con el obturador que ahora alcanza una velocidad de 1/8000 practicamente puedes hacer fotos sin filtros ND ! o aprovechar al maximo el rango dinamico a iso 50 para paisajes. -La Calidad de imagen es correcta pero si se agradecerian una mayor resolucion ya que esta camara cuenta con 20mp. tal vez si quieres dedicarte al 100% a hacer fotos de retrato si recomendaria tener una camara con una mayor resolución para tener detalles de los rostros etc... pero tambien es importante la óptica. La camara sube a otro nivel cuando la combinas con lentes SIGMA ART, o con un 35mm de nikon ni se diga si le instalas lentes de nanocristal (cosa que no tengo). Por ultimo quiero decir que recomiendo altamente la camara y estoy muy contento con la adquisición , son camaras muy caras pero que funcionan y te dan ese servicio que esperas de una camara de alto nivel. Es una camara que se siente profesional. De aqui en adelante solo me queda seguir mejorando como fotógrafo para aprovechar al 100% las capacidades que me ofrece el equipo.

Class Leading Performance
Well this is a Beast for sports and wild life photography, especially with the stunning auto focus and 10 frames per second. its no slouch for portraits and landscape either. I have been using this for about two months. I got it with Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G and Sigma 17-50mm F/2.8 EX DC OS ( Waiting for the Nikkor 200-500mm f5.6 ). I played this camera with 50 mm most of the time, the picture quality is exceptional with the crazy auto focus ability you won't miss anything, and it has 153 point auto focus with 99 cross type which spreads across the censor so the ability to compose is so good, and the dynamic range is great for an APS-C body, I played with raw file, and recovering shadows and highlight is extremely good. Great low light performance, even at higher ISO ( 12800 ) the image looks great I mean there are noises but its negligible ( for an APS-C ), beyond that range more noises. I wouldn't go beyond 12800, although it would go up to 51,200. This is a pro body and you need a fast lens to get most out of this. My wishlist are Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 , Sigma 50-100mm f/1.8 and Nikkor 200-500mm f5.6 ( this is the holy trinity glasses for this body ) and you are all set for any type of situation. Wifi & Bluetooth is tied up with Nikon's Snapbridge app and right now its working ok, but the transferring rate from camera to mobile is slow. I think the upcoming version will get improved. This has FULL HD & 4K video shooting capability which I haven't used much but any way its there and the quality look great too. with my limited experiment if you are going to take lot of videos then this camera may not be a good choice as the focus speed in live view is terrible, but for still this is extremely good ( one of the best ) just pick this, you won't regret it. I am extremely happy with this camera and would happily recommend this to any one any day. However this body would be overkill for a normal usage, If you are pro or amateur who interested in sports and wild life photography ( although this is good for anything ) than this the no brainer, just buy one. Thanks to the seller DAFFODIL-ELECTRONICS, great response and timely delivery.

Una de las mejores camaras de Nikon
Lo bueno: * AF Increíblemente rápido y preciso, incluso en lugares obscuros. * Buffer enorme (Capacidad de 100+ imágenes) * AF que abarca casi todo lo visible. * 10 Fotos en modo rapido, tiene opciones como Shutter Silencioso. * Cuerpo y Layout de botones pro (Botones configurables, Joystick para selección, Pantalla táctil, botones dedicados para funciones) * Pantalla con brazo extendible horizontalmente con excelente calidad de imagen y touchscreen. * Compatibilidad con memorias de ultra alta velocidad. * ISO standard muy alto(51200). ISO extendido asquerosamente alto. Niveles de ISO funcionan claramente hasta 3,200 con ruido mínimo. 6,400 tolerable. * Viewfinder con pentaprism enorme y muy brillante. De nivel de Nikon D810 y la serie DX (Nikon D4, D5, etc..) * Viewfinder redondo profesional. * Video 4k. * Compatible con los Lentes de bayoneta "F" estándar de Nikon. * Grip mejorado y mas cómodo. Lo Malo: * Muy costoso fuera de los días en que lo ponen en descuento. * Es formato DX (FX es Fullframe, DX es crop ) * AUTO ISO y Colorimetro increíblemente sensibles, puedes tomar 2 fotos continuas y ambas tendrán diferencia de ISO y de color. * El Nikon D610 y otros modelos FX tienen mejor calidad de imagen relativa. * Tiene menos Megapixeles que otros modelos. (20megapixeles vs 24) * No tiene flash integrado. * Video 4k es en modo "crop" ( parte central del censor, hace un aumento, se ve un efecto como de "lupa") * Voluminoso y algo pesado comparado con otros modelos (como el Nikon D610) * Usa 2 tipos de memoria, XQD y SDHC.
