Nikon D7500 Reviews & Ratings

The D7500 is an outstanding stills camera and a refinement of an already excellent DSLR. It brings added speed and buffer depth to the enthusiast level and adds improved subject recognition. More comfortable to hold than its predecessor, the addition of a tilting touchscreen only adds to the camera’s excellent ergonomics. And while 4K video is a nice selling point, the 1.5x crop and crummy video AF dim its appeal for movie makers. But for stills shooters, the D7500 is one beast of a camera.

The drop to 20 megapixels will be a surprise to many and this has a slight impact on the D7500’s outright resolution – but its speed, low-light performance and overall image quality are first rate. It might look like a bit of routine range-filling on Nikon’s part, but it plugs an important gap in the line-up.

It’s no longer the DX-format flagship, but the Nikon D7500 is nevertheless an extremely capable camera, and comes with a pricetag that’s much more affordable than the D500, despite including the same imaging pipeline and many of the same features. Its light and comfortable carbon fiber body packs in serious performance and great image quality, but should a few feature subtractions sway you in favor of its flagship sibling? Find out now in our in-depth Nikon D7500 Review!

This latest addition to Nikon’s DSLR line-up represents the biggest revamp we’ve seen in the D7xxx series since the D7000 replaced the D90. The combination of Nikon’s 20.9MP sensor and EXPEED 5 image processing engine from the D500 in an even more compact and affordable body is bound to be a tempting prospect for both new and existing users.

For those who covet the more expensive D500, the D7500 offers pros and enthusiasts a nice balance of price and performance. But for fans of the D7000-series, particularly existing D7100 or D7200 users, we suggest looking at shooting needs, as the D7500 isn’t something we would automatically recommend.

The Nikon D7500 SLR inherits many of the features of the flagship D500 and is available for a lot less money, but omits some features found in previous D7000 models.

The D7500 is a solid all-rounder, and a great upgrade for D5000-series owners – but right now, the D7200 simply offers much better value for money.

If you don’t mind its DSLR bulk, this is one of the best all-rounders you can buy at this price

Overall, the Nikon D7500 is an great all-round enthusiast camera for those looking for their next step up DSLR, especially for those who don’t have pockets deep enough for the D500. If you shoot a lot of action, want dual memory card slots, and more AF points, consider saving up a little bit longer and getting the more expensive camera. Otherwise, the D7500 should meet most of your needs.

If you can deal with the single card slot, and you don’t mind the weight of a DSLR, the D7500 might just be the best camera on the market at this price. It’s certainly one of the most well-rounded. This camera makes it easy to capture the pictures you have in mind, whether that’s landscape or sports photography, and the image quality is on par with the best you can get from a crop sensor camera today.

The D500 is great, but as a pro-level camera its price puts it out of reach for many. The fact that the D7500 has many of the same components, specifically those that determine image quality, makes it very attractive. Add in the fact that it has an excellent autofocus system and can shoot at 8fps for up to 50 uncompressed raw files with full focusing and it’s sure to win many fans.

If you regularly shoot at high ISO speeds (or want the option to), and want to be able to record 4K UHD video, whilst having the choice of a wide range of Nikon lenses, then the Nikon D7500 will be a great choice, with excellent image quality, and reliable performance.

The Nikon D7500 is a cracking camera. It’s up there with the most usable Nikon DSLR ever, thanks to it’s fast processor, solid build, bright viewfinder and responsive tilt-angle touchscreen.

The Nikon D7500 is an advanced-enthusiast DX-format camera that impresses with its top-notch image quality and blazingly fast performance.
