I have read quite a bit about the Nikon d7500 on-line & keep seeing it referred to as a “junior “ version of the d500, with not a lot of difference in specs, plus it has the built in flash that the d500 does not. D500 has 2card slots versus 1 on the d7500. Not sure if that makes much difference. But definitely a difference in price. My 7000 has 2 slots, but my 5000 series cameras only have one. I am not one that shoots 100’s of photos in a day so that has not been an issue. Thoughts & experiences with the d7500 fellow UHH’ers?

I've had a D7500 for several years and enjoy it. Takes beautiful pictures and sensor has tremendous dynamic range, which can be exploited with post processing. Probably the biggest difference between D7500 and D500 is the number of focus points. D7500 system similar to D7200. D500 has a lot more focus points, which fill the frame. I upgraded from D7000 and never used the second card slot. I think people over-react to the 1 card slot issue.

Thanks for looking! We often see butterfly wings on the ground after the fact, but rarely get to see the action.

Thanks for looking! Yes, a square crop might work well-maybe I'll try that later in Lightroom. I usually crop in 2X3 or 4X5.

I went outside to shoot photos of airplanes but saw this drama unfold in part of the flower garden. Shot with Nikon D7500 with Nikon AF-P 70-300 FX lens.

This is a weird one. I noticed this when using Lightroom, but it's almost undetectable. As I move my eyes from the image to the right panel, what I would describe as a faint gray cloud moves slowly from right to left. When I look back at the image, the cloud moves slowly from left to right. What made me notice this oddity was my difficulty in seeing the changes the sliders made. Since I would move a slider and then shift my eyes, that cloud momentarily blocked my view by a tiny bit.

I never noticed it in any other situation, so it's not a major problem. I see my eye doctor in October. If it gets worse, I'll go sooner.

Jerry: I had same exact issue, and eye doctor described it as "Posterior Vitreous Detachment" or PVD. Very common as we age and somewhat related to floaters. Google it and you can find out more. Nothing to be done about it, though it slowly resolves. Good luck!

Started to go balmy during the lull in the pandemic in October. So we took a family trip to ride the Cass Scenic Railroad in Cass, WV to Bald Knob. A 4 hour trip with a provided box lunch in open railway cars. The weather did not cooperate. It was cold, rainy, and very foggy with no views. On the way to Cass, we went through the small town of Durbin. In the center of Durbin, we noticed a steam train depot. From the looks of the depot, it seemed that Durbin tried to be a copy of the Cass railroad model but without success. As we drove through the town center we noticed several steam locomotives off to the right under a full head of steam. We stopped and spent a half-hour taking pictures. These snapshots, (no art here), were taken with my trusty P-900 my go-to, all in one, vacation camera. The buildings photographed are right on the main street through Durbin. Not sure if I would stay in the hotel. The last photo shows the town's attempt to copy the Cass model.

Durbin is currently home base for a short steam powered train ride along the Greenbrier River operated by the Durbin & Greenbrier Valley RR. They also operate much longer trains out of Elkins, WV, and are currently the operator of the trains at Cass. Long term plans are to finish track work on washed out portions of the former C&O along the river and re-connect Cass and Durbin. A standard gauge 2-8-0 locomotive is currently in the Cass shop being re-built to power these trains along the river. I suspect things are slow in Durbin with the end of the tourist season. Cass homes were re-built for tourist lodging as part of its State Park status. No such luck in Durbin-it is what is left of the original town-once an interchange point between the Western Maryland & C&O railroads. My dad was born there in 1930 when his father was C&O operator/agent at the depot in your photos.

Comments and tips from users


I have had the D7500 for over a year. Very pleased overall. (I generally use the 16-80 mm lens with it) The sensor seems excellent with low noise even at high ISO. I've found I need to use +0.3, or even +0.7 exposure comp to get correct exposure, but the dynamic range of RAW images is impressive. Many seem to complain about 1 SD card slot as opposed to the 2 slots D7000, 7100 and 7200 have. I never used the 2nd slot on my D7000 as I just shoot RAW and process in Lightroom.
