Product details
Powerful 153-point autofocus for outstanding scene capture performance in a wide range of shooting situations: The D500's Multi-CAM 20K autofocus module has 153 densely arranged focus measuring fields
(99 of which are cross sensors) that cover a very large part of the image field. Even fast motifs can be precisely captured. The light sensitivity of the AF has been extended to -4 LW for the center AF area and to -3 LW for all other AF areas, allowing the autofocus to be used even with extremely low light or low-contrast subjects. A new AF engine and subject recognition through the RGB sensor with approximately 180,000 pixels also contribute to the exceptional autofocus capabilities in a variety of subject situations. High-speed serial photography with approx. 10 frames per second and up to 200 consecutive shots (RAW, 14 bit, lossless compressed):
The D500 enables rapid image series with a frame rate of approx. 10 frames per second and a series length of up to 200 shots (JPEG or RAW 14 bit, lossless compressed), without the recording speed dropping. Even objects in motion can be tracked exactly within the wide field of view at such high frame rates, with the advantages of the quiet viewfinder image and the largest currently available. viewfinder field of approx. 30.8° (diagonal). 4K-UHD video, suitable for professional productions:
The D500 can record video in 4K UHD resolution (3840 × 2160, 30p/25p/24p) as well as 1080/60p resolution up to 29 min 59 s long. Simultaneous output via HDMI is possible. The camera can also be used to generate 4K UHD time-lapse films. In Full HD or HD mode, the Digital Image Stabilizer reduces the effects of camera shake in the horizontal, vertical and rotational directions when shooting movies hands-free. Active D-Lighting preserves the details in the lights and shadows for videos with natural rendition of the respective lighting situation. New Expeed 5 image processing engine for sensitivities up to ISO 51,200, expandable to Hi 5 (equivalent to ISO 1,640,000):
The D500's new Expeed 5 image processing engine, which is also used in the D5, enables a standard ISO range of 100 to 51,200, which can be extended down to Lo 1 (ISO 50) and up to Hi 5 (ISO 1,640,000). Image processing guarantees exceptionally high-resolution images and effectively reduces image noise even at high ISO settings. The RGB light metering sensor with 180,000 pixels, also new, increases the performance of the Scene Recognition System. A flicker reduction for photos reduces the occurrence of exposure differences under lighting with flickering light sources. SnapBridge support allows the camera to connect to mobile devices using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi:
Once the SnapBridge application is installed, the D500 can establish a permanent connection to a mobile device via Bluetooth or Wlan (available as a free download). This results in a wide range of functions: Images captured with the D500 can be automatically transferred to the mobile device and also automatically uploaded and saved to NIKON IMAGE SPACE. You can also browse the photos stored in the camera on the mobile device and embed location, date and time information in images. SnapBridge thus opens up new possibilities for using images taken with the D500.
