  • After 3/4 of a decade, we've finally received the follow up to the Nikon D300S! However, this new crop sensor camera is more expensive than several Full Frame models in the Nikon lineup. Does this camera mark the resurgence of DX cameras, or is it an overpriced dud? TCSTV's Chris Niccolls finds out.

    These reviews are really top-notch. I enjoy watching Chris on camera, very clear and easy to listen too. The video quality is great too. I have zero interest in video, but love listening to Jordan talk video features. Keep it up guys!

    Fantastic and thorough review. I absolutely LOVE my 300mm f/4 PF VR, I'm surprised it's not more popular. One of my favorite telephoto lenses; it's sharp and incredibly small and great for handling. This thing makes images just as sharp as the 300mm f/2.8 VRII, awesome little lens for outdoor sports and wildlife!

    Great review Chris. Thanks for the image samples too. The low light performance is really impressive as is the sharpness. Already have a 750 which I really like and a 7100 but will be purchasing another Nikon soon. Not sure if there is a new 810 update which will have similar performance with a larger FF sensor. Regardless, for 2 grand US, it's a hell of a camera and using FF lenses works just fine. I saw some images shot with a Nikon 20 1.8 and they were amazing. Thanks again for the review.

    Great video I always look forward to the reviews from TCS. If I may give feedback on one point. The price at $1999 is not expensive at all when compared to my older D300 purchased in 2007 for $1799. Also in order to get the D300 to shoot just 8 fps you had to buy a battery grip for $350 a battery from the D3 $150 and a special door $60. That's over $2300 9 years ago. Convert that to today's money and your closer to $3000. Every reviewer complains about the price? Honestly I think there are many D300 and D300s users that would consider the price a non issue. Availability now that's an issue. I was able to find a camera store where I live in Hawaii that had 1. So I purchased it. BTW that's actually 2 things that are now rare in Hawaii. A camera store and a D500

    I was enjoying the video quality right from the start. I was surprised to learn it was recorded on a Nikon, but nice they finally made a camera, that you can do video on, even though you say you might not, coming from a video backgrund. Thanks for the review. I liked it - as usual. :-)

  • @RockLander818
    @RockLander818 8 лет назад

    WOW. Finally, an ISO for ISO comparison between the D500 and D750. I shoot low light action mainly roller derby and I'm consistently hang around 4000-6400 ISO. The D500 is amazing and keeps increasing the distance between Nikon and Canon bodies. As a D750 owner I'm happy the FF edges out the D500 in low light image quality. Not to take anything away from the D500 because that means it's most likely better than D810, 5DM3 etc..... Talking low light here. As with one of your other comments previously... The new technology really opens the door for what we can expect for a D810 and D750 successor....
    Thank you TCS your reviews are awesome.

    Guys, I'm in the market for a new camera now and my shortlist is the D500 and the Fuji X-T2. I shoot studio portraits, landscapes and sports. Which camera would you recommend,? Seeing as both are now about 18 months old, is there another option I should be looking at? Alternatively, should I wait and see what the Canon 7dmk3 or Nikon D760 will be like when they reportedly arrive in the first half of 2018?

    Great camera overall. The video quality as seen in this review is good enough rather than great though. But then if I went back to using this kind of camera (I'm on mirrorless now) video would not be a priority and only used occasionally. Anyway as usual with you guys the best camera reviews on RUclips!

    i loved the video quality and colors when I started this review, and was blown away when you guys said it was on the D500! sure part of it being 4k (love 4k!) but ...i dunno am not a videographer, but for example it felt "punchier" and more naturally colorful than the "Sony A7 Mark II Hands-On Field Test" video (compared both in 1080p)! .... in other words, please use the D500 for your subsequent reviews! (Tokina 11-20 should be wide enough :p)

    @robertbarber7710 7 лет назад

    Argh, trying to decide between the D500 and the D750. I don't really do much action photography but rather landscapes and portraits and other 'close' shooting, and I like the idea of being able to take better low-light shots, so I'm leaning toward the D750 with the FX sensor. But then again I might take more action shots with a camera that can do it so well, so maybe I should go for the D500 with the overall better specs. I'm thinking I"d be better off with the full-frame sensor but I wonder if I'm getting stuck on the 'full-frame' thing when the DX might be nearly just as good.

  • @xray111xxx
    @xray111xxx 8 лет назад +1

    I think it is a great camera. It is a good day for APS-c, many may have a strong commitment to DX glass and the D500 is a great halo camera for DX lens users.

  • @scottmurphy650
    @scottmurphy650 4 года назад +1

    I have had a Nikon D7100 for several years. I got it for one reason, the crop factor. I normally work in full frame, but it is nice to have the crop factor turn my 600mm f/4 ED IF AIS Nikkor into a 900mm f/4 ED IF AIS Nikkor. Although I have little gripes with the D7100, with the exception of its very small buffer capacity, I got a D500 about 4 months ago and I hate to say it, the D7100 is collecting dust in one of my 4 camera bags. The D500 gets almost as much use as my D850 now.

    The "mirror slap" isn't throwing your composition off on a lens that short. What you're actually seeing is the VR system jumping. Turn VR off and you won't see anything like that.
    EDIT: also, left out whether you can use the touchscreen for AF point selection (not in live view)
