Earlier this morning, I took a walk with my Black Mouth Cur and my D5200 with my favorite lens the DX 18-140. I was wearing my prescription sunglasses, which are Polarized, of course.
The biggest problem I have with the D5200 when it's off AUTO (scenes), is that I can't easily see the information in the viewfinder. During this little test, I noticed that I can't see ANY of the information in the viewfinder with my sunglasses on. I know I can get that info from the panel, but that eats battery life.
I believe the control panel on the D500 is readily visible outside, with or without glasses? In the days of SLR, I could glance at the camera and know exactly how it was setup, I'm hoping the control panel would allow me that once again, without dining on the battery.

I wear prescription glasses and found the viewfinder on the D7500 to be user friendly. I can easily see the settings on the inside (as well as the full framing of the picture) not to mention they will also appear on the LCD scree on the back of the camera as well. I do not know what the battery life is on the D500, but the D7500 can be a little thirsty depending on what you do with it. I always carry 1-2 spare batteries with me, but have not as of yet run out of juice on a charged battery on any given day of shooting. It does drink juice a bit faster than my D5200 did, but then it does a lot more than it did. Again, I have no regrets about getting the D7500.
