I did buy the 7200 and have no regrets. I mostly appreciate the noticeable increase in dynamic range and reduced noise, especially in low light or high ISO situations. In those circumstances it outperforms the 7100. But when light is good, I would be hard pressed to discern one camera from the other. The 7200's deeper buffer does not really matter to me.
The buffer on the 500 doesn't matter to me,but the focus system is a definite plus. Now I just need to get focused.
