The D850 is literally the standard that all other cameras should be compared to. It has the essentials with very little fluff, it is a tool that seriously photographers can use, period. I cannot stand the new mirrorless cameras, I feel like I am looking through a cheap camcorder…. I wish Nikon would consider to keep making professional DSLRs. I will buy a couple D850s and just hope they last forever.
I am not a professional photographer, in the sense that I do not make a living at it, however, I have been shooting for 48 years and the D850 is outstanding.
I purchased this body November 2023 and took it with me on my last visit to India, getting back 5 days ago. In both high and low light conditions, it performed flawlessly.
If there was a way to upload a photo, I would upload a shot taken just after sunset, where the crescent moon was at about 70 degrees, with the silhouette of a palm tree directly below, without a tripod, this photo was spectacular, tack sharp and not grainy...
Other photos I took were tack sharp and rich in colour, in all settings used; whether manual or shutter and aperture priority.
I used my Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8 for all shots taken with this camera since purchased new. I am very much looking forward to mounting my NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6 .
I did notice and was surprised with the battery life in that I only took about 350 shots and needed to change the battery out. That being said, it might be due to both the WiFi and Bluetooth being active.
Finally, I found SnapBridge to be a little slow and clumsy to use. However, for as much as I would use it, this is really a non-issue.
Overall, this camera, the features and the ease with programing, the photo quality and more, is simply amazing.
Of all the Nikon models I have owned, this camera outperforms all the others, hands down.
one of the best dslr in history

Absolutely stunning! Easily the best camera I’ve ever owned.
Absolutely love it very satisfying great photos
I have worked as a photographer more then 10 years. I already changed three cameras. All my cameras was only Nikon (D3100, D7200, D750). Nikon D850 was my dream long time. And today my dream came true. High quality product, fast and reliable delivery. I am happy. Nikon is my love forever! Thanks Nikon.
Went from the D80 to D700 for years to 810 for a few months to the 850 which I shoot with daily. Always great quality. Recently used a Z9 and Z5 and much prefer a crystal clear Viewfinder on the D850 to the mirror less cameras that look like a vhs tape. If nikon invests in better lcd viewfinder technology rather then fps, Etc I will switch in the future
D850 is an extremely precise high-resolution camera & getting the most out of the camera can be a little tricky. The camera will become your greatest critic and expose every mistake you make be it technique, exposure settings, etc. It will teach you to be a better photographer. I now get extraordinary results and with good glass, results are spectacular.
