Blasphemy, I Say!!   You are NOT allowed to use the slow D810 for shooting BIF. Great Shot, with an equally great camera!

Dynamic Range on the D810 has been a game changer for me.  I've only owned the 7D, but went to the D700, then the D800  and now the D810. I think they are superb cameras.  However, Canon has some ...

The mere fact that you suspected focus issues and proceeded to purchase Focal is reason enough to suspect the camera needs service. I had a D800 which I thought was sharp, but I always received ...

Spectacular shots!!!

As others have alluded to, you need to change your workflow a bit with the added resolution. What focus mode are you using?  I tend to use AF-C with Group Focus for fast moving objects. I also had ...

Then why does your Exif state D750?

I somewhat disagree with this assessment.  Any new equipment will garner the attention of the masses UNTIL it is dismissed as not impactful to said masses.  The masses will at least investigate ...

It doesn't appear broken, only for Nikon's Newest cameras. I can't believe the D500 is not one of the more popular cameras.  I guess they don't have an entry for these newest cameras.

I actually don't think anything is wrong with the D810. I LOVE that camera and it gives me everything I need for the bulk of what I shoot. There are times I do Event photography, 5K races, Mud ...

Thanks for your feedback.  Funny, the one thing I LOVE about the D500 is the AF-ON button on the back!!!  I also love the touch screen and tilting Live view.  Even if it is not the small form ...

He did mention mirrorless without naming a brand.

A very timely article.  I did a little research on the size and weight between the D810, D500, and the A7II and was surprised to see the D500 is not that much smaller than the D810!  That's a ...

Wow, the D500 is almost the same size as the D810.  I would of never figured that. D810 is 146 x 123 x 81.5 mm/5.8 x 4.9 x 3.3 in.

I'm not in love with the Sony.  I'm only using it for the small form factor and light weight.  I don't like the system, lenses, etc.  It's my backup camera. I'm thinking of selling it and getting ...

Thanks for taking the time to post these reports on the D500.  they are very helpful and I find them of great value. Since you've spent some quality time with the camera, what is your overall ...
