I would love to have a d500...but how many cameras do we really need?
And I also grow tired of-hearing the d810 is better at portraits and landscapes but not really good at BIF.
Here are are a few examples of BIF shot with an 810 and 200-500 nikkor lens by my wife, Sleepydrdr, all hand held
AFC 21 focal point set up.

Nice. But nothing that the D7200 could not accomplish.
So, the D7200 can do 10 FPS. I did not know that. And can match the buffer of the D500, did not know that either. And is as good in low light, did not know that either. And has a tilt screen, I did not know that.

At least two cameras. The D810 and the D500. If you can afford both? BTW, those are some great looking shots.

Ok, I did now I will see if that helps. Thank you.

From what little I've learned, yes. The D500 is loaded with communication options - SnapBridge, wi-fi, Bluetooth, etc., which are always searching for devices to connect to. Go to the setup menu and set airplane mode to ON. That will prevent the camera from transmitting. Default setting is OFF (let's the camera communicate).

Well what you don't know could fill this site and many times over. Two items of your profound ignorance are the image capability of the D7200 and the ability to understand English.

I was one of the first to get a D500 from B&H.... (show quote)
I bought a D500 about two weeks ago and have been comparing shots taken with the D500 with shots from my D7000 and a D7200 that I had recently rented. I used the same lenses on all cameras bodies for consistency. I think the D500 shots exceeded the D7200 shots a little. I wonder if with your camera it was a back focusing or front focusing issue. Your lenses may have been front or back focusing a little on that particular D500. It's possible that some AF fine tuning was needed.
