Thank you Dr B! Hopefully, between my ideas and a few others about some of the other settings, a root-cause can be identified and corrected.

Thank you Bob! Hopefully, a resolution can be made from just some setting changes.

I can recommend MPB. I purchased a used D500 from them in July 2021that met all your requirements, and the original box 3K clicks for less than 1K. Take a look on their web site. No tax free shipping.

Could you please send me the link to the camera as I can't find that post on my phone. I am currently unable to use my laptop as am receiving a cancer treatment in the hospital. Thank you for your reply.

I have read the ads for the 2 D500 that are for sale. One is offered by a person who just joined our group just yesterday. He is selling all of equipment for $1700

The other one has a serial number that begins with the number 6. I think that is a gray market.

I bought mine a couple years ago from MBP. Great service and a 6 month warranty

Dziadzi Loc: Wilkes-Barre, PA

Thanks, I will check this out.

I went to MPB to see what they have in stock and all that they have is D500s for about $1000. I prefer to purchase one with a better rating than "GOOD". Thanks again. I keep checking their website.

Paul you are a gentleman, a scholar and a compassionate tutor...
Hat's off to you sir... I simply don't have the time/energy to provide such meaningful timely guidance in a constant manner.

My thoughts are if the lion's share of advanced shooters would focus on helping newly emerging talent UHH might once again become a "Go To" for other photographers. Currently there is a tad too much "static" over brand preference and too little thoughtful analysis like you've just provide here Paul. Please stay the course, k?

Dziadzi I totally love my D7100... Having shot it since 2013... Once you've become one with it's virtues and limitations it can (and does) deliver.

btw, this isn't uncorroborated pontificate... See imagery below shot this past summer while sequestered owing to Covid-19. Take the time to become one with your D7100 Dziadzi and it will deliver with stellar imagery. These images were taken with the legendary AI-S 75-150mm f/3.5 Series E Nikon (circa 1984). Possibly one of the finest optics of it's day. My cost for this Series E Nikon Optic? $69 (at ACE PHOTO in VA (only a few minutes drive from my studio)).

Hope this helps Dziadzi!
btw I strongly recommend Sports Photography Forum, it is one of few on UHH that has Commercial Sports Shooters as regulars. Here you can ask about the D500 (it's highly popular there)
