After $900.00 Instant Savings
Very easy to use . It did take awhile to get used to no flash attachment.Great detail in the photos. Very sharp image . I´ve had nikon for years. Perfect. Very similar to the d800, which I also have. Photos are Easy to upload to phone. At first I had some trouble but I figured it out pretty quickly.
I love this camera and am still learning more about it. Images have great color and are very sharp. I can blow the images up to very large size prints. The only thing I miss is the fast frames per second. To upgrade to 9 frames per second ends up costing around $1,400.00 by the time everything needed is purchased. Other than that I love this camera!!!
After my heart attack, I was able to get out on a RV ´´glamping´´ trip, and use my D850 for the first time. I had purchased the D850 a couple of months earlier, but the heart attack put a damper on going out and using my new camera. As much as I enjoy(ed) my D800, the D850 is a dream. The images I took were amazingly sharp and clear. The processing time left my D800 standing still. The base ISO of 64 resulted in my images being vibrantly pleasing to my eyes. I hate to tell the people of Nikon this, but this camera has been everything that I´ve always wanted in a camera. So much so, that this might be the last camera I will ever purchase. OK. Now, I am not into sport photography and etc., so for me the Nikon D850 is the perfect camera. Can I hear an Amen?
I very much love this camera. The image quality is exceptional, and the ability to shoot at 46Mp and use a crop for a 25Mp image allows my 70-200 to work like a 105-300. The standard USB3 cable input is a huge improvement from the non-standard cable on my D750s. This camera is phenomenal in the studio. Outside the studio, the metering seems different, but I´m learning the differences and adjusting. The higher resolution really shows camera movement more easily. Not an issue on a tripod, but can be when shooting handheld in low light - even with a VR lens. The only major complaint is the inability to save settings like the U1/U2 I have on my D750s. Shooting an event, I cannot quickly transition from shooting the stage to shooting the crowd. I got used to simply being able to rotate a dial back and forth from U1 to U2 and vice versa. The settings banks are pretty useless - they don´t stick, and take too long to switch between anyways. I´d rate this camera a 4.9 for that reason. I may have to go back to the older D750s for events vs the two new D850s.
I shoot mostly events (mix with flash and without) and initially the D850 was very difficult to use with the new SB-5000 flash. The TTL mechanism shut the flash down so much that it was very difficult to get well lit photos. Eventually I had to turn the flash TTL off and just use it manually. As opposed to the D810 and SB-910 that worked nearly perfectly every time. So nice in fact that I went back to it for most event shooting that requires flash. (Battery door on SB-5000 broke within the first 2 months of use).
The new sensor in the D850 is very nice, and sharp. But other than that, I think I like the D810 and SB-910 better for all the event shooting I do.
I upgraded from a D300 to the D850 and OMG. The image quality, the focus speed, is just insane. I love everything about this camera.
This is the best camera. I have learned so much and can use Manual mode which is an achievement. My friends are so complimentary when they see my photos. I´ve had it for about four months and feel confident in the results.
I am exceptionally pleased with my D850. I have been shooting Nikon professional cameras since 1970 and this is by far the best camera I have owned.
Been a Nikon owner for years and recently purchased the D850. I shoot mostly action and landscape and wanted the best of both worlds. This camera has done exactly that, especially with the grip to increase fps. The color that the raw files contain is unreal. The ISO is really good as well as the focusing system. I´m very pleased with the purchase and highly recommend this camera to whoever is ready to take their photography to the next level. Attached is a recent article I had published. The whole event was shot with a 70-200 and a 24-70.
