Is a Nikon d500 a good DSLR?

## Answers

### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

- The **Nikon D500** is a fantastic [**camera**](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/50587/how-to-fix-iphone-8-rear-camera-that-won-t-focus-autofocus-not-working). It includes a quick, accurate focusing system, 10 frames per second shooting speed, and excellent metering and white balance algorithms. This could be the best digital SLR Nikon has ever manufactured for the money. The camera's 4K video, high-tech focusing, and overall image quality set new standards for APS-C SLRs.
- The D500 is a long overdue and eagerly awaited update to Nikon's pivotal professional crop sensor DSLR from the previous decade, the D300s.
- The D500, like the D300, was released with a professional FX DSLR. In the case of the D300, it was the combination of the D300 and D3 that revived interest in the Nikon DSLR series and launched some new technologies in 2007.
