re: why all the hype about that D500
That is caused by the long time between the D300s and D500.
It is aimed at the pro-level DX lover.
I have held a D500, it is a nice half-sized brick for DX lovers.
I agree with your thoughts on the D3(s) model.
Only downside I know (in line with other single-digit DSLR models): no option to power the camera with batteries in case of emergency
(grips for D700/800 take alkaline/lithium penlight batteries).
re: are (stop-down) meter coupled
My 28mm F 4 PC nikkor is not meter coupled in any way, but I love it nonetheless.
