"Amateur/Professional"- I chose to make my livelihood in fields other than photography, but I certainly appreciate the additional features of the D7200 over the D7000. Maybe I don't need additional weathersealing, as I don't go out in the rain as an amateur. A photo excursion around, say, Pittsburgh architecture for instance, will show the distinct difference of having an anti-aliasing filter or not. The extra megapixels don't hurt when cropping either.

So, your saying the D7200 WILL take better, clearer, and sharper images that the D7000 using the same lens. If your not, your post is mute.

We wanted a dedicated camera for taking product shots and thereby bought a D7200. Does an excellent job and it is not as heavy to hold as our D800 or D810. So far it meets all our expectations.

I am saying that it is a distinctly better, easier tool for accomplishing that end. I am saying that the lack of an anti-aliasing filter alone will change the clarity and sharpness of images taken with the same lens.
And yes, UHH is a written/visual format – not audio.

Can't tell any difference in images with either one. 7200 has wifi and a little better in low light, but not much.

Thank you, that has been what I have been saying. Most people will NOT notice a difference. It is not worth the cost of switching.

Upgrades in my opinion are necessary when the present camera cannot fulfill intended photographic needs. If you shoot a lot of action and wildlife the answer is YES.
If you do portraits, family photos or landscapes the answer is NO.

I upgraded a couple of years ago from the D7000 to D7200 and I felt it was well worth it and concur with others who have said the sane,

Ditto. But I kept my d7000 and use it as a back up, or with a different focal length lens.

I too was concerned about the lack of flash on the D500. But guess what, when you can shoot at ISO 1600 without noise, a flash is mostly not needed. If you do need more illumination a Speedlight is a much better light source than a built in flash. BTW, I kept my 7000 for my second camera. If money is on the line or if it's a one time event, every photographer should have a second camera.

rcfees; We Kept our D7000 when the price dropped a bit on a NikUSA factory refurbished (and in Oct 2018, prices have dropped yet again, sigh). Still love the 7000, and usually keep the super-tele on it, and it's a great backup. The D7200 was a big jump over what little the 7100 brought, so don't trouble yourself, you can retask about any button for any purpose, though saving settings and menus was a drag until we got the hang of it; they all have their quirks. We use both DX and FX gear, and they both make great photos, regardless of the crop factor. Enjoy.sv

I shoot with a D7100 and a D7200. Both are very good cameras giving the edge to the D7200. If budget allows go for the D500.
