Nikon D7500 for selfies?
The Nikon D7500 has a flexibly attached rear LCD. However, the screen can not be turned to be front-facing, and, thus, cannot be used to monitor the framing when taking selfies or during v-logging. That said, the flexibility of the LCD's attachment will be very welcome for odd-angle shots.
In terms of size and resolution, the rear LCD of the Nikon D7500 measures 3.2 inches and offers a resolution of 922,000 dots. The panel is touch sensitive.

One convenient feature of the D7500 is the presence of an on-board flash. While this built-in flash is not very powerful, it can at times be useful as a fill-in light to brighten deep shadow areas.
