This camera is possibly my favorite thing I've ever purchased. It's an absolute beast. My wife and I are both photographers of different types. She does portrait photography (newborn, family, etc) and I do landscape/astrophotography
If you can afford it, I can't recommend this camera enough. It's an incredible piece of technology, one of the best cameras you can buy. If you are looking for an incredible full frame DSLR with no compromises (minus video of course) then look no further than the Nikon D850.
The D850 is a big improvement over my D7000. Using the same lens and exposure, the D850 does a noticeable better job. Can't tell if it is the increased pixel density, lack of anti aliasing filter, or what, but a definite improvement.
This is the camera they needed to release. The new sensor and increased resolution gives me a very compelling reason to use this camera. When combined with my Otus 55mm lens I have something that closely resembles medium format. I can crop, crop, and crop and still get excellent resolution and edge contrast. It is amazing. When used with autofocus lenses (like most normal people) I find it to be fast and extremely accurate. Easily the best I have ever used.
A hand-down improvement in the Nikon line-up. Unless you need the high speed output of the D5 I am not sure why any pro wouldn't invest in the D850.
Absolutely love this camera it’s a workhorse and so glad I purchased it
The pros absolutely outweigh the cons. In the end, I bought this for the image quality, and it's pretty great. There are enough changes to the features and controls that I literally am reading through the user's manual and trying to absorb the intended workflows. I was hoping my jaw would drop at the results, but this feels like incremental improvements. I won't be surprised if DXOmark calls it the best sensor on the market. But having waited 4 years, I guess I was hoping for more. I've barely scratched the surface on what you can do here, but early buyers need to know about some of these details.
Image quality is amazing. You can see the difference in detail compared to the D810. Its not a huge jump but noticeable. I also think ISO 64 is cleaner on the D850. When raising shadows the colors are truer and the detail is not lost. Some people have reported over a 1 stop gain in HIGH ISO. I don't believe this is true but I do think the D850 has cleaner High ISO shots. I do a lot of nightscapes and the D850 is definitely cleaner at ISO 3200- 6400. There is still noise to deal with but it is better. One area the D810 had issues with was hot pixels with long exposures. The D850 has greatly improved in this area. There is a few but it is much improved. Overall if you were happy with the image quality of the D810 or D750 you will not be disappointed with the D850. Don't expect a huge improvement because the D810 and D750 were already amazing with IQ.
I have now had the camera for a few days and wanted to give my initial thoughts on the D850. I am upgrading from the D810 and will give the review from this perspective. The overall feel is very similar with a few small changes. The grip feels thinner but deeper and most people find it more pleasant. FOr some reason I actually preferred the D810 grip. The D850 grip sort of has a square feeling in my hand. The button layout is a little different and overall I would say better. I prefer the ISO button on the right so you can make all major adjustments with the same hand. The joystick is much better for changing focus points. This could get annoying with the trackpad when you had to make larger focus point adjustments. The joystick makes this a quick process.
The D850 is a definite winner and I think almost all buyers will be thrilled with it. If you plan to take advantage of the 7-9FPS I suggest investing in the XQD card. I do wish Nikon would make the custom buttons even more customizable. There is still a lot of restrictions that seem so easy to correct.
