There's very little difference between the product of those two sensors, Toment ...
One of my bridges has a half-inch sensor ... and that makes it easy to tell the difference from the others!!!

You shoveled snow from your steps. While trying to photograph your handiwork (similar to what millions of others did at the same time you did) you dropped and broke your lens cap. Then (I don’t recall the exact details because I fell asleep) somehow all turned out fine and all is well.

Glad you had a quick nap during the reading of my story, Dennis ... hope it did you some good!!!

A few years ago one of the retaining clip on the lens cap for the 18-140 lens on my D7200 popped out on it’s own, with no encouragement from being dropped or stepped on. I tried the gluing thing and it definitely held it back in place, but the darned thing didn’t work. So I went on Amazon and got one for cheap. Worked well until I sold the camera.
That's the thing, see, Greg ...
Putting glue on any part of the mechanism - will keep the spring action from working ...
Best solution is to get another lens cap, I guess ....
I think you need to go to a strip club for a couple of hours

Now, if I remember rightly - there's quite a bit of size difference between the D7200 and D500 ....
At least - my two Sony DSLRs are exactly the same body ... so, it's easy to mux them ip!!!
Of course, that's why I installed the Capturing Couture strap on the newer one - so I wouldn't!!!
Had a slight lapse of memory, I guess, Fly ....
Yes, but it been a while and they’re both bigger than my G9.

I should think SO, and all, Fly ... the G9 takes 110-film-sized images ...
The D7200 (along with my D7100, and D7000) are all APS-C designs, or as I like to say - DXI cameras.
Whilst the D500 is also - a DXI - its body is a good half-inch wider than the D7000 series cameras ...
Interesting note, here, though, Fly ... Sony decided to stay with the body size they developed for the a77 and its later upgrade - the a77 II, when they made the upgrade to the a99 FF design - the a99 II. So, you can transition very easily between the a77, the a77 II and the FF a99 II - as they're all the same body!!!

The G9 takes whatever size image I want to make it. The sensor is comparable to 110 film but viewing at 100% on my monitor only about 1/4 of it will fit. In most circumstances you would be hard pressed to find any real difference in IQ.

Thanks Chris, that's salved my curiosity.
My father was a builder (amongst other things);
he told me that the width plus the height of each step of stairs should
equal 22 inches.

Oh, really? ... So, the next time I wish to make a mural - I should use the G9, then, should I, Fly?
