Cant see a thread, so thought Id ask...

As a D300 user, it seems like a long delayed natural upgrade, and one I will be chasing in the very near future.

Just wondered what the PH togs thought about it ?

It does certainly seem to nail a few things the earlier models missed thats for sure.

Im pretty close to buying, and have actually rented one for a weekend so know what to expect.

The overall feel is very good, the fps is awesome, as is the AF ....

I think the 500 aces the 750 with better AF and more fps....

And if you have a bag full of DX glass the 750 becomes pricey.....

I quite fancy the 150-600c having rented a sport - found it way to heavy to be manoeuvrable in the way I like.

turn7, how are you getting on with the D500.
Not had much time with it yet, but so far so good. AF latches on fast and the metering is way better my old D300.

Safe up to arounnd 800 ISO from what I hear.
