Summary

The X-T20 maximum resolution of 6000 x 4000 pixels (24 megapixels) is better in comparison with the Nikon D7500 highest resolution of 5568 x 3712 pixels (21 megapixels). The X-T20 has more number of focus points than the Nikon D7500: 325 vs 51. More focus points means less risk of losing focus lock during tracking a moving subject.

The Nikon D7500 battery life is better than the X-T20 battery life. According to CIPA standards the camera owner will be able to make 950 photos with the D7500 and only 350 with the X-T20. The Fujifilm X-T20 weighs 383g that is 257g less in comparison with the weight of the Nikon D7500.

The X-T20 and the Nikon D7500 have an equal number of advantages though as the Fujifilm X-T20 has better maximum resolution which is a really important specification then it will be the best buy.
