D850

Really pleased with the D850 The increased dynamic range is incredible The features of the camera are amazing, particularly the low light focus range

My transition from FM2, F2AS & F3 [film cameras] to the D850 DSLR [digital camera] has not been easy. Going from very simple (easy to comprehend & use) ASA selection, lens-aperture setting, shutter-speed selection, spot-metering & manual focus SLR camera/lens to a complex (not necessarily easy to comprehend) DSLR has been a near impossibility for me. The D850 is an amazing camera. In my world it has far too many features & selective options for me to comprehend & effectively use. I selectively purchased a D850 because of it's very high accolades, it's compatibility with my older manual-focus Nikkor lens', it's proven robust-reliable construction and the fact that it is likely one of the (BEST & last) Full-Frame Digital SLR mirror cameras currently available as a brand-new Nikon product.In summary - the D850 far-exceeds & easily outperforms my Nikon SLR film camera(s) - but it's not going to be easy (for me) to fully-PERCEIVE it's capabilities..

Owned a D810 and have relied heavily on a D500 for the past ten years for sports photojournalism role (mainly basketball). Finally bit the bullet and bought D850 to replace my D810 which I found too slow for sports work. The D850 is a God tier DSLR. It may actually put my much loved D500 into a permanent back up role. Yes the D500 is a bit faster, but the resolution of the D850 allows for tighter crops and it is fast enough for well lit indoor basketball. Absolutely recommend the D850, buy one before they are gone.

Love it. Should have bought earlier.

This was my first brand new out of the box DSLR, so far I have only used the D850 to shoot live bands at my local bar. Thankfully they have enough lightingto make things a bit better but still had to shoot at 6400 ISO. The lighting guy changed colour every 2 seconds or so. I had to wait and guess when a decent colour came next. Beside that the D850 handled using 6400 ISO without and trouble

Solid bullet-proof body. Great dynamic range and auto-focus system is amazing, very fast shutting speed, higher is basically a video so no a problem for me. Clear sharp images and double memory cards is a must fulfilled by this machine. Owning a Z7, jumped back to D850 mainly because of battery life at the beginning however image quality made the change worthy. Great move to have the FTZ adaptor so I can use my old Nikon lenses plus getting much more from both Nikon and third parties, this makes a difference against other brands. Did not try video as my main purpose for this camera is photography (landscape, architecture and occasionally wild life and sports) with the purpose of having photos printed later on. Still learning to dominate this beast, so far very satisfied. Perhaps replacing Z7 by Z9 would be a good move however not in the short term but in the mid term. No granting 5 stars as nothing is perfect and Nikon always finds the way to improve and impress.

Solid, yet ergonomic design. Easily locks into your hand. The photo quality is amazing! If you’re looking for a top DSLR you have found it in the D850.

Just received mine about a week ago, so far fantastic, I came from a D610, so there is a more learning curve. Love the auto ISO, which probably eliminates the need for a built in flash

This is my second d850. I really do like this camera and I know it. I am 81 years young with rheumatoid arthritis . My hands are the worse. The grip fits my deformed hand just perfect. I make great pictures with it!
