   Just to refresh people's memory about the frame rate of the D7200/D7100:

 

   They both have a somewhat average frame rate...(RAW)

 

  in 14  bit lossless compressed mode..5 Fps.....  D7100  6 shot buffer....D7200  I think it's 18 shots

 

  in 12 bit compressed mode.................6Fps         D7100  8 shots...         D7200   around  22+ shots

                                                                                   

  7 Fps only comes in crop mode (1.3 X)    

 

    5 Fps in quality mode is pretty pedestrian and not exactly sportive.  (many remember the headline 7 Fps figure only)

 

   Even the FF D750 does better.. 6.5 Fps 14 bit lossless compressed for 14 images.

 

    The D7500's  8 Fps for 50 shots in RAW 14 bit lossless compressed is a huge improvement over the two predecessors.
