Adding Nikon D500 To Photo Arsenal

My first ramble with my new (to me) Nikon D500 DSLR body.

I’ve always wanted one of these tanks that are great for wildlife/action photography. Yes, the D500 is old, but it’s still a superb performer that got a Gold rating from DP Review.

Got the body, two batteries, charger, manual, and original strap for less than half of what a D500 body cost new at its introduction.

Oh, yes, and  81,000 shutter activations, with a rating of 200,000, so lots of life in it yet. . .
