Replacement for the D7200? No, not really. Rather, the Nikon D7500 officially slots in between the latter and the much more recent D500, borrowing components from both. So you can see the D7500 as a light professional D500, or as a highly improved, very expert D7200. Your choice. In all cases, Nikon manages to produce a beautiful copy, clean and neat, if not original or avant-garde.

With the D7500, Nikon makes a very good copy, highlighting its know-how in terms of autofocus, subject tracking and image processing. For a price significantly lower than that of the D500, it offers very similar services while offering clear progress compared to the D7200. Not necessarily the most original, the D7500 is in tune with the times (adjustable and touch screen, 4K/UHD video) without forcing more than necessary. A balanced box designed for action images, that's its raison d'être.
