Apparently you don't either, you just talk.
I can see why you're named "Shadowblade," because you follow me around, everywhere I post, like a Shadow
As a matter of fact, it's a combination of two old call-signs. It's not meant to mean anything to you.
No camera has gotten these awards.
You mean apart from when they give these awards out, year after year, to a different camera each time?
Not probably; it is
Not so; the Canon 7D tried, and failed.
The 7D never tried. It was clearly aimed beneath the contemporaneous D300s. The D300s used the D3s AF system; the 7D didn't use the 1D3/1D4 system, but a different system that's clearly aimed at a lower level.
Its sensor is all that is needed for wildlife/sports, making it much better for these things than all but the 1Dx2.
Then why all the demand for full-frame from action photographers, back when the 1Ds first came out and Nikon had no full-frame camera? And later with Canon shooters, when Nikon had the full-frame D3s vs Canon's crop-sensor 1D4?
Crop sensors have a much harder time with subject isolation than full-frame sensors. Dense crop sensors like the D500 are good when you're focal length limited. If you're not, full-frame gives you far more options.
Its AF out-performs the 1Dx2 and is similar to the D5.
Where's the test confirming that? The only thing you've got supporting that is your own opinion. Not that you've tried the 1Dx2, by your own opinion - more like 'the D5's AF is better because I like Nikon.'
Therefore, it puts more pixels where it counts, out-performing ALL of the above-mentioned cameras, which you'd have to crop to get the same image, due to the reach.
Which only applies when you're at 800mm and still focal length limited.
If not, you need a longer lens, not a smaller sensor.
It makes the D500 what these other credible resources call it (as opposed to your nameless, faceless self): the most well-rounded DSLR we've ever tested, and among the very best.
They're not 'credible resources'. They're the opinion of some random reviewer.
A 'credible resource' would be, 'We've tested A, B and C cameras side-by-side, A was better than the others in this aspect, B was better at this other thing, and these are the numbers/comparative test shots that demonstrate this.' Not something that says, 'Camera C is the best because we liked it and think it's well-rounded.'
The D500 succeeds where the 7D II fails.
The 7D2 also never pretended to be a pro body. It's a slightly-better 70D, whereas the D500 was designed as a D5 with a crop sensor.
