Touch-operation, Tilting 3.2-in. LCD Monitor
The D7500’s tilting LCD monitor lets you shoot from a wider range of angles with ease, as well as focus and release the shutter by touch when using live view. It makes macro shooting from low-angle positions more convenient, enabling you to operate the camera right next to flowers growing close to the ground. -
Precision Optical Viewfinder
With Nikon’s precision optical viewfinders, you see what the lens sees—without any delay and in real time. This is ideal for sports, action, low light and general shooting scenarios. Perfected over many decades, the optical viewfinder gives you the purest shooting experience possible, with the clearest, brightest and most seamless rendition of the scene playing out in front of you. -
Comfortable Grip Design
D7500 employs a deeper, more ergonomic grip designed to help improve stability, eliminate hand and arm fatigue and ensure comfort for all day, handheld shooting with telephoto, tele-zoom or all-in-one NIKKOR lenses. Whether you are an enthusiast or a professional, the D7500’s ergonomics are uncompromising in comfort and operability, giving you that seamless Nikon shooting experience regardless of what you are shooting.

Built Light, Rugged & Weather Sealed
D7500’s body employs a lightweight monocoque structure made of carbon fiber composite material, offering durability against shocks. Its design incorporates a deeper grip for more secure and comfortable holding—a big advantage during longer shoots. Comprehensive weather sealing is applied to the camera body to prevent dust and water droplets from damaging the electronics, for added peace of mind. -
Long battery life lets you shoot uninterrupted
With the D7500’s optimized power management, you can shoot approximately 950 shots6 with the included EN-EL15a battery before you have to worry about swapping it. With competing platforms, you’ll find yourself carrying up to 3 batteries to shoot as many frames as the D7500. If performance and reliability matter, then battery life matters. The D7500 can help you get a full day’s worth of shooting down to one battery charge. -
Durable shutter unit tested for 150,000 cycles
D7500’s shutter unit has been rigorously tested for 150,000 cycles while actually loaded into the camera. It’s also fitted with a shutter monitor function that calculates the duration between front- and rear-curtain movements every time the shutter is released, and automatically corrects any variance.
