Thank for your comments. Out of curiosity, have you had any experience with Sigma or Tamron lenses?

Not the long lenses. There is a guy on here his name is Gene51. He is most helpful and knows a lot about the long lenses in general. Especially the sigma products. Search for the lens in the search function and look for his replies or go to his info and click on his posts. There will be I do there

Nikon trend is to eliminate the built in flash. It used to be only the top of the line that doesn't have the built in flash. Then they didn't put the built in flash in the Df then the D500 then the D850 and now the D780.
I agree, and i don't like Nikon's trend in eliminating the flash with every new camera that comes out, it's such a critical part of still photography. The Df was billed as a retro, pure still photography machine. Which is why they say they eliminated the video... But the flash also?
It doesn't matter how great a camera shoots in ridiclulously high iso, it's not going to put catch lights in a subjects eyes. The onboard flash is the artist's tool to complete the photograph weather it's for people, animals and pet photo's. Just because a new camera comes out without a flash doesn't make it a professional model. I think it's a lame brain decision on Nikon's part.

I don’t know why everyone thinks this is a Nikon thing. The top cameras from Canon and Sony are also flashless, as is my Panasonic G9. Pop up direct flash makes for ugly photos. It’s really only useful for fill flash or triggering external flashes. I guess they assume that if someone is shelling out for the top cameras they would rather shell out a little more for a good external flash rather than take crappy flash photos.

Just FYI. The two top crop sensor DSLR Canons 7d MK II and 90D both have built in flashes. I’m not a fan of these type flashes though.

Never said it was just a Nikon thing did i Superfly? Yea, your right, it's only useful for fill flash and besides, they take crappy photo's. I guess people don't mind carrying around external flashes.

Your exact words: “ I agree, and i don't like Nikon's trend in eliminating the flash with every new camera that comes out”. Sounds like to me you’re saying it’s a Nikon thing.

Canon considers those intermediate level cameras. Nikon also includes pop up flash on their intermediate cameras.

Canon considers the 7D MK II as their professional crop sensor camera in their literature. It has a magnesium alloy body and weather sealing. Calling a 7D MK II an intermediate camera is like calling a Nikon D500 an intermediate camera. They both serve the same market segment for sports and wildlife shooting

I’m going straight off the Canon site. Filter on intermediate cameras on the 7D is listed. Filter on Advanced and it’s not. It’s also 6 years old. The trend away from built in flash is more recent.

I said it's a Nikon trend whether others do the same or not but I meant it's a trend recently. Before only the top is flashless. So I said there is a trend toward no built in flash. I am not familiar with other cameras so I listed the Nikon that have no built in flash. Their Z6 and Z7 don't have built in flash either.
Unlike others I don't like built in flash. In fact I wouldn't buy the Df if it has built in flash.

OMG, we happened to be talking about the D7800, the name of this thread is D7500.

A couple of things that you missed about the D7500. The D7500 has the same processor as both the D500 and D5, which the D7200 does not. It has the same low-light capability as the D500, which makes it, along with the D500, Nikon's second best low light camera, next to the D5. Except for AF, it is essentially a D500, but smaller. The D7200 and D7500 are both outstanding cameras. When purchasing a DSLR for my daughter they were the two cameras that my selection came down to. Based upon her photographic needs of shooting the sports activities of her sons, Steve Perry recommended the D7500 over the D7200. If she had been primarily a landscape, portrait, or still photographer, the nod would have gone to the D7200.

I like that they added Group-Area AF to the D7500 also. It's great for wildlife and sports. It also has the ISO button right behind the shutter button also. Sometimes, you have to make changes to ISO quickly for the scene. The ISO button location makes it faster.
