The EXPEED 5 processor in the D500 opens up a world of possibilities, processing images fast enough to allow up to 10 frames per second so you don't miss a moment of the action. The new Multi-CAM 20K autofocus system provides 153 AF points including 99 cross type points, which together enable you to create images that match your vision. It is also the first Nikon DX camera to utilize the new XQD memory card technology, which provides faster read/write and transfer speeds to fully take advantage of the D500's speed. Not quite ready to upgrade to XQD? That's no problem, as the D500's dual memory card slots can accept SD media as well. Although compact in size, the D500 certainly packs a punch. Not much light to go around? The D500 makes the most out of every bit of available light, giving you the flexibility to produce high quality images in dark environments.

Rich details emerge from the shadows to produce unrivaled quality found only with Nikon cameras and lenses. They say that good things come in small packages, and the D500 is no exception. A powerful but smaller sibling of the D5, the D500 features the same durable, rugged build and ergonomics you've come to associate with Nikon DSLRs. Built with rugged magnesium alloy and carbon fiber materials, and featuring dust and water-drop resistance you'll have peace of mind even when shooting in extreme environments. The D500 also leverages a 3.2-inch 2,359k-dot tilting RGBW LCD touchscreen, making it easy to get the shot even from high or low angles. Now, sharing your amazing photos is easier than ever - the D500's SnapBridge functionality enables multiple built-in connectivity options. Liberated from the constraints of connecting wires, you can transfer your images to a compatible smart device from anywhere in the world using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to eliminate the barrier between your camera and smart device. As an added benefit, the D500's built-in Near Field Communication (NFC) capability makes it a breeze to connect the camera to your compatible smart device while the built-in Wi-Fi capability allows for faster wireless image transfer. For those looking for an even faster transfer solution, the D500 is also compatible with the optional WT-7A, enabling transmission of files to an FTP server or computer at speeds of up to 866.7 Mbps.

  • Love this Camera!
I purchased this camera principally for wildlife/birds and aviation photography. Specifically, I wanted the extra reach over my D810 and more importantly, the faster autofocus/shutter release and better tracking capability of things that move, shift or otherwise jiggle around. All the other features that the camera has really did not enter into the picture for me (pun intended) though after using the camera for a bit I have to say that some of the features really started to grow on me. Aside from indoor test shots, I've been trying to use the camera in real life situations over the past few days, but the weather has just been awful since I got it. I did, however, manage to get a few shots in, including the two attached pictures. These are far from my favorites bird pics, but I think both somewhat show the capability of the camera (mounted to my Nikkor 200-500 f/5.6 VR). Both were shot at 500mm with the lens/camera on a tripod/Wimberly Sidekick. The Doves were shot at f/6.3, ISO 360, 1/160. Heavy cropping (68%). The Junco was shot at f/5.6, 1/125 and ISO250. It is massively cropped to 1295 x 1813 (90% crop). Both shots were post processed in Lightroom (cropped, sharpened, de-noised, etc). My feelings on the camera - the shutter release speed is simply STAGGERING. I knew it was going to be "fast" but when I shot my first burst, I just couldn't believe it. There is absolutely no doubt that I will get more "keepers" than the 5/6 FPS D810. AF speed seems faster than the D810/200-500, but I have not really had a chance to get in any fast action bird or airplane in flight shots yet. The reach is the reach and I'm happy for it. IQ and ISO performance seems to be outstanding. But, I still am very happy I have my D810 which, to me, performs better in both categories (as a FX camera should). For landscapes, architecture, portraits, floral shots, street/people I still think the 810 is a better choice if you have to make a choice. I'm happy (and consider myself lucky) that I could swing buying both bodies and given what I am seeing with the D500 would always be wanting for one or the other if I couldn't. Plus, my wife is big into birding so she was 100% on board with me buying a "bird" camera. How cool is that! Regarding the features that I didn't think would be all that important to me. I absolutely LOVE the tilt/touch screen (with all its functionality) as well as the joystick. Swapping the ISO/Mode buttons didn't do much for me. I shoot manual with auto ISO and don't feel the need to have the ISO button any more "accessible" than the Mode button. I would rather have it the way it is on my D810 but, okay. I do miss the AE/AF lock button for exposure lock (I use the AF button for 'back button focus') but have my camera set up so that the joystick "button" when pressed handles AE lock so no harm, no foul. Oh - one more thing....the battery life on this camera is DEFINITELY worse than my D810. I have the camera in airplane mode (Snapbridge to me is still very much buggy, "beta" software) but it didn't seem to help much. Get an extra battery - you'll need it! Those are my thoughts/impressions right or wrong...hope it helps. Happy Shooting! ... show more

  • 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. ... show more

  • You’re Gonna Love It!
I have been shooting on a Nikon D3400 for a little over a year and was ready to upgrade my camera body. The D3400 has been a GREAT camera and I still have it. I spent about 4 months researching a full-frame mirrorless (Nikon Z6 exclusively) and the D500. I went with the D500 because I liked that my current lens collection would work with this. The D500 hits the sweet spot for landscapes and sports, two genre’s I shoot in. The Z6 only has 3 native lens and no telephoto. The cost of going full-frame and mirrorless and purchasing new lens was too much. So what I LOVE about the D500. It’s shines in low light. I regularly shoot landscapes and astrophotography and you can push the ISO will little noise at night. There was a bit of a learning curve but that was erased by simply using the camera and watching some tutorials. The camera was been great at freezing the photo for sports photography as well. Auto-focus is very good and you have options on how/where our want to focus. You are able to customize almost everything! If you shoot with a variety of scenes you can create customizable scenes so you’re not resetting the camera from sunset, to astrophotography, to sports. The camera feels like a professional body. It has some weight to it so you know you’re holding a camera, but not too heavy that you can’t hold it still. This is an established camera in Nikon’s repertoire that is not going away. You get a ton of power for the price. I HIGHLY recommend. Feel free to ask any questions you may have! ... show more

  • 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. ... show more

  • Camera of the year for 2016 with good reason and still not beaten in 2017.
Awarded The Best Camera of 2016 by numerous publications and outlets. There is a very good reason this Camera is so highly rated and I am sure you have read all of them on the numerous reviews all over the place. If your thinking about buying a D500 and your already use to or know what to expect with the size and form factor of a DSLR then stop hesitating and just pull the trigger because the D500 is an unbelievable camera at an unbelievable price. It's hard to imagine what Nikon was thinking when the created the D500 and put everything except the larger sensor from their $6000 D5 into the Sub $2000 D500. Whatever happened the end result is that they handed the public a fully professional DSLR at one third the price. My own experience has been excellent. The D500 takes excellent pictures, it surpasses my older D4 in every area and that in itself is a feat considering we are talking about a Dx camera vs a much more expensive Fx Camera. The low light ISO capability of the D500 is phenomenal. It's not until you experience the ability to take a very good picture with the light of a single candle in a dark room that you appreciate just how good this camera is. Shooting at ISO 800 looks like ISO 200 on my other DSLR's. The AF on this camera is off the chart. I was actually able to track some small moving birds fairly accurately with the 3D tracking technology. The list of positives is long and distinguishes and already posted all over the internet :) so let me just say that I was hesitant at first and I was thinking FUJI, Canon and the D810 but I am so happy that I went with the D500 and the 16mm-80mm kit lens combo. The picture have been phenomenal and the camera is a pleasure to use. ... show more

  • 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. ... show more

  • Nikon D500 one INCREDIBLE DSLR! 1000 Stars!
I am blown away by this wonderful camera. I purchased this as an upgrade to my D90 and have already shot 2 magazine features and covers with it. This camera has the fastest and most accurate auto focus I have ever seen. Also the low light capabilities are mind blowing. I am finding more and more capabilities every day. This camera is making me look really good and I like that! If you're looking for a camera in an affordable price range that gives pro level results, you cannot go wrong with this absolutely wonderful Nikon D500. Also this seller was fantastic and the shipping was fast. CONS: while this camera comes with great networking capabilities an Bluetooth, Nikons SnapBridge is worthless. One of the reasons I decided to pull the trigger on this purchase was so I could use my iPad Pro as a live monitor on live shoots, but I was highly disappointed to find out that SnapBridge is nothing more than a marketing ploy by Nikon. The level of difficulty in pairing devices and keeping them paired makes it unusable. This is not an issue with the wonderful D500, but an issue with Nikons less than honest promotion of their extremely lame software, SnapBridge. While I'm disappointed inNikons lack of attention to their obviously faulty software, I take nothing away from the D500 and give it my 100% enthusiastic recommendation! Maybe someday Nikon will take their software seriously and put out something worth downloading that will actually stand up to their as of yet false claims....(Fingers crossed!) ... show more
