Nikon D500 Gets Gold Award at DPReview!

Posted on by

DPReview published their full in-depth review for Nikon D500 DSLR camera. And the recently released Nikon D500 (Amazon, B&H, Adorama) DSLR camera gets an impressive 91% overall score and Gold Award from the experts at DPReview.

From DPReview Conclusion:

The D500 is the most well-rounded DSLR we’ve ever tested, and among the very best. Every one of us who has picked it up, regardless of which brands we’ve most often shot, has been impressed by its autofocus system’s wide coverage and ability to find and follow a subject. If you need this, the large viewfinder, solid build and the ability to just keep shooting, then the D500 is peerless. It’s not cheap but it looks like pretty good value if you look at it as a huge chunk of the D5’s capabilities for a fraction of the money.

If you don’t need that cutting-edge high-speed performance, cameras such as the D7200 offer essentially the same image quality, and if you want to shoot video there are better choices, too. But as an APS-C sports and wildlife camera, the D500 is without rival, and that puts in on the top of our awards podium.

Good for: Anyone looking to shoot sports or crucial-moment photography. Photographers looking for a durable camera with excellent ergonomics.

Not so good for: Landscape photographers needing more resolution or anyone looking for easy portability. Photographers looking to dabble in video.

And Nikon D500 DSLR camera was selected for the Best APS-C DSLR Expert award at 2016 TIPA awards. It’s really a great camera! You can also see the best lenses for Nikon D500.
