I'm looking at buying one or the other of these 2 bodies. Prices of refurb. models are very close and each model has something I like. The tilt screen, better processor and large buffer are a big + on the D7500 but, the available battery grip, battery life and 2 SD slots are features I like on the D7200. Can UHH Nikon users add input that could tip the scale either way? Thanks!
I do not own either but based on my needs the D7500 would be my choice. More modern technology trumps the D7200’s features. But with the right deal I could also be happy with the D7200.

The features of each are readily obtainable. Go through it, and evaluate, rank order or use whatever analysis you wish. The bodies are rather inexpensive per the quotes given. But the best person to select YOUR camera is YOU. But again, if you make the "wrong" choice, for just a couple of hundred, you can sell one and buy the other. Cheaper than renting for a month or two.
I own the D300 and it's big and heavy like the D500 very good camera though, also own the D750 the FF glass is big and heavy but I love it, recently purchased the D7500 with the 16-80 really nice combo, lighter than the D750 / 24-120. I would have considered the D7200 if it was offered with the 16-80 as a kit. D7200, D7500 either one you can't go wrong, I'm very happy with the D7500 / 16/80 combo.

Another reason to choose the D7200 is that it takes older Nikon lenses and the D7500 does not
Not true. The D7500 is fully compatible with all but Al- Lenses, which can be used with manual focus.
I've shot thousands and thousands of images with my 7200 and still love it.
Consider the D7100. Great camera and it does have dual card slots. I purchased and never looked back. It's a crop sensor, but that has never been an issue for me, and I am a professional photographer. While Nikon does NOT deem this a professional camera, it does a fabulous job. Shoot RAW and edit how you want.
