![]() ![]() The optical viewfinder is phenomenal and has 100% coverage of the sensor. Unfortunately though, navigating the menus and making changes via touch is not an option. The LCD also supports touch to focus in Live View. Pinch to zoom makes reviewing critical focus natural and, eventually, second nature. It supports both pinching and swiping when viewing images during playback. The LCD used is inherited from the D750, which now fully articulates and is also a touchscreen. Nikon has also opted to use the same EN-EL 15 battery, one they’ve used across a multitude of cameras now, making batteries one less headache. It offers 1,200 shots on a single charge, impressive considering the performance available. In this regard, this camera rivals the performance found in the Nikon D750. SHUTTERCOUNT SONY A7RII ISOOverall, its noise performance is superior to competitors, and images are found to be only moderate noisy at even ISO 25,600 without excessive loss of detail. This camera inherits EXPEED 5 from the Nikon D5 and is the first DX camera to offer this wide of a range for ISO. It has a native ISO range from ISO 100 to 51,200. Nevertheless, it will be capable enough for regular needs. In regards to focusing performance when filming, it is found to be adequate but not the quickest. Not only that but the center AF point can focus at -4 EV, while all other points can focus at -3 EV. Even in low light and low contrast scenes, the AF performance remains excellent. It is a camera geared primarily at sports and wildlife photographers, but the subject tracking and AF performance experienced when shooting people is superb. The available subject tracking mode also works incredibly well. The camera does, however, have a remarkably consistent hit rate, even when shooting at 10 FPS continuously regardless of how much movement occurs across the frame. While in portrait orientation, they cover roughly 80% of the entire frame. Our only minor gripe is that the focus points are only spread edge to edge in landscape orientation. No longer will you be constrained and limited by focus recomposing. SHUTTERCOUNT SONY A7RII FULLThis level of coverage occurs because this camera is APS-C, not full frame. With that, it has 153 AF points, 99 being cross-type, which cover almost the entirety of the sensor. As mentioned previously, this camera inherits the AF system from the D5. The focusing performance is phenomenal and is industry-leading amongst APS-C cameras. Note: filming in 4K will further crop into the frame, and a wider angle lens will be needed to get the original desired crop. ![]() Users can also record up to 30 minutes in a single capture. Interestingly enough, the 4K footage provided is equivalent to Sony’s A7RII Super-35 footage when shot in good lighting. The 4K footage captured is clean with sufficient resolution and doesn’t fall victim to the effects of rolling shutter whatsoever. ![]() SHUTTERCOUNT SONY A7RII 1080PIt shoots in 4K at 30 FPS and 1080p at 60 FPS. Nevertheless, these lenses are best suited to deliver proficient image quality. ![]() Yes, this will mean that each lens will be magnified by 1.5x their focal lengths, as this is an APS-C camera. Note: to get the level of performance that best matches this camera, pro-level FX lenses are best. No questions asked this is a professional-level camera when it comes to image quality the images it produces are incredibly sharp. Nikon opted not only to remove the OLPF but also transfer both the image processor and AF system from the D5 into this camera. The image quality this camera provides is phenomenal and is comparable to that of the D5, a camera that’s three times the price. What are some of the goods, bads, and the uglies of the Nikon D500? Pros: Image Quality
