    As a 68 year old who is a new subscriber AND a new photographer trying to learn some of the art and find some good equipment, I want to say I really value your reviews and your narrative on photography. I appreciate the fact that you back them up with the downloadable files you offer. I inherited a D70S from my late photographer/sister, picked it up one day, caught the bug, and now I'm trying to sort out my next steps on equipment and education; your videos really help.

    Super detailed and thorough review. I can't believe this level of quality (HD, Drone shots, Full Res jpgs, multiple cameras/go pro view) is *free* on RUclips - very comprehensive. I'm sure an insane amount of effort went into this production. Great job Jared (and team)!

    I think you wanna buy this cam if you are shooting sports and nature. If I wanna get best results in portrait photography, I think I'd to take a full frame body. But, still interesting to see it above iso 4000.. But- as he said, the D(n). - Bodies are in their own iso-league..

    I do have a question though. This is becoming to be known as the "wild life and sports camera." What makes this less of portrait camera than the D750? I am debating on which one to upgrade to.

    Hi Jared, thank you for providing such great videos about photography. You've been my "guide" into the world of photography since 2011. I want to ask you something.
    I have a rebel T3i, which is getting really old and it's giving me some troubles. I have a nice budget (around 1500€, 1600$) and I'd like to do a lot of things, but of course I can't. I thought about replacing my old rebel T3i with a newer 7D mark II or 6D, which are getting quite cheap. Now the main problem is that my lens setup is not so great. I have a 24mm EF-S f/2.8 STM that I love, the classic 50mm 1.8 and the samyang 85mm 1.4. I really need some advice. Should I buy a new camera (and if yes, which one between the two) or should I invest more on lenses (I was thinking to a 50 1.4 and a 70-200 f4)?
    Thanks for the answers!

  • @OmarFadul
    @OmarFadul 4 года назад +2

    For wildlife, real deal fast shooting like hummingbirds, or the real fast sports action this is the very best camera on the market even today on April 2020. The autofocus of the D500 is perfect. There is nothing like this on the market. If you work with real fast action buy the camera and be happy! Don't bother yourself with the mirrorless mania, full frame things... Buy the right lenses and the D500 will deliver every time when you most need it. Portraits, shows, concerts, studio work are too easy for this camera.

  • @michelemerbaum6629
    @michelemerbaum6629 8 лет назад +1

    Fro, I just got back from shooting a Golf Tourny on memorial day. One recommendation I have is get in front when driving, I mean really in-front. I typically shoot about 20 feet in front and 7 to the side. Yes i'm at risk, but you get some really nice shots. I shoot full frame with a 70-200 for tee shots. Also with my silent shoot mode, I get the back-swing as well.

  • @WillemVerb
    @WillemVerb 8 лет назад +1

  • @monirul0814
    @monirul0814 5 лет назад +5

    Full frame vs D500: decision is simple. If you buy full frame camera you'll have to buy all the expensive fx lenses whereas with d500 you can use dx and fx lenses and get x1.5 times reach in all lenses.

    @guilhermerocha1555 6 лет назад +1

    Hi man! First, let me say your videos are incredible and I've been binge wachting your whole channel! But let me ask you something. I'm into portraiture and leaving my Canon T6 for a new system. Eventually I do landscape and some video, just for fun. I am trying to decide between Fuji X-T2 and Nikon D500. Honestly, I am leaning towards Fuji. But it feels like every time I think I've made my decision and I'm reaching out my arm to get it, I read some opinion like "the D500 low light performance is better" or "Nikon's focus system is amazing" and automatically take a step back. My plan is to pick the body and one or two primes, like 35mm and 50mm. Which one do you think I should get?

    Thanks for this review although it’s a few years old now. But would you still recommend buying this camera now ? For example it’s as expensive as a Fuji x-t4. I don’t do video and have a feeling the D500 is still superior over the x-t4. Is that true?

    I don't remeber why I subscribed to you 4 and half years back, but videos like these remind why. Production quality is literally top notch, the editing and cinematography alone warrant this channel being top in its class, but the information, the examples, the charisma in the video make it that much better. Thanks fro, Todd, and Stephen. you guys nailed it with this one.

  • @ktelecominc
    @ktelecominc 7 лет назад +1

    I have been looking around for new camera, since now it is 2017, event the D810 was announced, and Nikon full frame bodies are even cheaper now days, I can't get myself over to get a crop sensor body when all the spec on the D500 is soooooo freaking good. I want to have camera body that will do good video, portrait, sport and d500 fits everything I need. But I have to sacrifice f2.8 for this body?? At this point i don't have any lenses for Nikon or canon, I just borrow lenses from all my friends, really hard choice.

  • @KamenMinkov
    @KamenMinkov 8 лет назад +1

    Finally a serious Nikon body that doesn't cost as much as the D5 does. I am most probably getting one later this year and honestly would be doing the same even if the D750 was coming out now - maybe the AF is the biggest selling point for me. Edge to edge coverage? Cross type points at the farthest left and right of the frame? F**k yeah, even the top end of the previous generation bodies didn't have that. Maybe the lack of a built-in flash is a bit of a let-down (I'd love to have one for off-camera flash control), but it's understandable from Nikon's point of view - they want to push the sales of the SB-5000 and the wireless controller.

    Is the D500 with 16-80mm good for indoor (weddings) photography as well as outdoor? I'm considering to spend around $2,200 for a new camara, thinking of either the D7500 or the D500. I do mostly events and sometimes pics outdoor. Thanks for this wonderful review.
