The Nikon D850 is one of the best DSLRs ever made. Period. Full stop. Yes, we had a few notes -- the Live View AutoFocus is slow, you'll see some rolling shutter in video, it's a little hard to find settings in the endless menus, and Snapbridge has a few bugs (and will eat your battery!
Pros:
- Gorgeous imagery
- Amazing dynamic range
- #AllThePixels
- Incredible Auto Focus (via optical viewfinder
- Accurate metering
- Very good 4K video recording
- Up to 9fps full resolution continuous shooting (with the optional grip
- Ergonomic button controls
- One of the best DSLRs ever made
Cons:
- Dense menus
- Slow Live View AF (for stills & video
- Missing pro video features (S-Log
- 10-bit HDR
- etc
- Choppy in-camera slow motion HD video
- Snapbridge App still needs some work

Nikon D850 review
If you’re need pro-friendly features and can stomach the price tag, the Nikon D850 is the best DSLR you can buy today. It has a ton of fantastic features that will appeal to anyone who’s looking for a workhorse of a camera that can shoot in pretty much any situation, be it landscapes or fast action. Negatives are few and far between. Using XQD and SD cards may be disappointing to those who already have a stack of CF cards, plus XQD cards are expensive - but they are so fast, it’s worth it if you need ultimate speed. Having the focus points clustered around the centre is sometimes a little annoying as you have to focus and recompose, but that’s something which is common to pretty much all DSLRs. While it may not be able to compete with the Sony A9 when it comes to fast frame rates, a very capable AF system and a range of other features mean that for those who already shoot Nikon, this is a dream upgrade. The D850 is also much cheaper than the Sony A9, while Nikon’s range of lenses remains (for now at least) much more versatile.
Pros:
- Super high-res sensor capable of incredible detail
- Burst mode makes it good for action too
- Weatherproof and extremely well built
- Incredibly crisp optical viewfinder
- Silent shooting mode is a useful extra
Cons:
- Centred focus points sometimes means recomposing
- XQD cards are expensive

Nikon D850 Full Frame Digital SLR Camera D850 review
What a significant camera this has turned out to be in Nikons line of excellent bodies. Not only is it right up there with the few medium format cameras still on the market on DXOMark (granted, Sony has shown a strong performance on the list as well) The Nikon D850 scores 100 points. But...

Nikon D850 review: The best DSLR ever?
On paper the Nikon D850 seems to good to be true. This full-frame DSLR camera is no modest refresh of the already impressive Nikon D810 , it's an overhaul. It's fast in every way. Its high-resolution sensor competes with the best - even medium format cameras - given the 45-million-pixel arrangement.
Pros:
- Excellent dynamic range
- high-resolution and sharp detail (in the right hands)
- new silent shooting mode
- large viewfinder
- vibrant and responsive tilt-angle touchscreen LCD
- insanely good battery life
- Nikon's best AF system
- improved handling and build quality
Cons:
- No built-in flash
- AF in Live view mode is slow
- especially in low light
- xpensive once all extras are included
