Pros: Dynamic range. Sharpness. Color rendition. Excellent ergonomics in my hand. Weather sealing. Excellent auto focus especially in low light. Many advanced in camera features. Dedicated back button focus. Very good at high ISO considering almost 46mp. 7 frames a second without grip is incredible at almost 46mp.
Cons: Silly 2 different types of card slots. If like me you want the use second card slot as the backup card when on safari, the XQD card is only as good as the SD card for storage and speed of clearing buffer. Should really be 2 XQD cards in my opinion. Stupid prices for OEM battery grip. Despite Nikon advising same processor as D5 I do not think you should believe auto focus is as fast as D5.
Opinion: I have had this camera for almost a year and this is not the perfect DSLR neither do I believe there is such a camera. However, I think this is Nikon's best all around DSLR ever and for most people I cannot think you could want for much better. I rate this camera 9.5/10 because no camera is perfect but the D850 is very close!!! My primary DLSR for the next 5 years! I love my D750 but this camera is 20% better all around. Zero regrets purchasing this camera!

Pros:Excellent technology, incredible sensor quality, easy handling, in short... all.
Cons:I can't find any weaknesses. (Maybe video autofocus?)
Opinion:I've spent my life at Canon (analog) and Nikon (digital), owning almost a hundred cameras. I believe that with this D850 we have reached a very high technical level, beyond which we begin to see the boundaries of AI, but here we would also begin to talk about aesthetic composition and 'interpretative technique'. Ease of manoeuvring and feeling of great professionalism also help to understand the meaning of this camera, created for professionals but also to enhance those who want sensations of wonder in photography. The resolution is amazing, a hair below medium format, with a tonal sensitivity of superfine tastes. You need higher quality lenses, but even with the old AF-Ds you can get very remarkable results. However, you have to raise the bar a lot, with 140 Mb TIFF files you need powerful computers and capable harddisks. Night photos that give meaning to the word 'magic'.
Opinion:Socket just released a few months after the D500 to be used as a single body instead of the D810 / D500 combination to have less weight in the bag. What can I say, from a certain point of view perhaps the best DSLR ever produced by Nikon, a professional mini with the advantage of not having the fixed battery pack like the professional D4/D5. Everything has already been said, I can only confirm what has already been written. But I always keep carrying another body with me so that I don't always have to change my optics or lose the moment. I usually use it together with a D610 / D500 which remains my absolute favorite.
Cons:The battery life does not seem as exciting as the viewfinder.
Opinion:bought used at a very advantageous price. I think I gave myself another nice gift. I had no problem familiarizing myself with this machine because I already own the D6 and the menu and settings are completely superimposable. The files it produces are rich and very workable. I don't know if it's just the D850 or just my specimen but it seems to me that it underexposes a little. I wait that does not bother me at all, indeed ... The feeling in use is typical of any high-end SLR. Solid and well built. I was positively surprised by the dynamic range of its sensor and the iso management. I thought that such a dense sensor had more problems to handle iso values above 2000. There are some things that do not make me crazy about this D850 but my judgment is probably spoiled by the fact that I use both this machine and the D6 and therefore there are things that, if compared, make you turn up your nose a little. For example, the viewfinder. I read enthusiastic reviews on the viewfinder of the D850 but it absolutely does not stand comparison with that of the D6. The same applies to the rendering of autofocus. It is very good but, again, when compared to that of the D6..... Let's say you notice the difference. The battery life I thought was also better. But even here weighs the fact that that of the D6 is inevitably more durable. I did not understand what motivation has the choice by Nikon to equip the D850 with two memory card slots in two different formats. For the rest I can say that it is a great car. I am pleased to know that I own the two cameras that represent the pinnacle of the development of the SLR sector of a brand like Nikon. If found used and if you already have Nikon F lenses it is definitely a recommended purchase.
Opinion:Purchased Nital a month ago, to support the D500 (which now mounts the 500PF on a permanent basis), together with the 24-70 f2.8 VR and - found still new - the excellent 70-200 f4, I must say that the expense was not trivial and I confess to having had a thousand doubts about the purchase of a SLR and not a mirrorless, given the transition under way. But I pulled straight, and, made the first photos, just no regrets (churns out files at the end better than a Z7 II and I speak for direct comparison) and I will enjoy it for years to come. Of course I can't say that I have tested it thoroughly, but the virtues of the D850 have been extensively extolled in previous reviews. Immediately, however, I was conquered by the solidity of a camera body where nothing is missing (but I was already used to the D500) and I was frankly amazed by raw and jpeg files that do not need almost anything in pp (with the D500, used for naturalistic and en passant with the 16-80 DX, I dream of them ...). Of course it consumes resources and you need fast cards and equally performing computers. In short, it will be the enthusiasm of the moment, but I do not think I am partial in saying that the D850 embodies the state of the DSLR art. Then we'll see what Nikon has in store for years to come. For the moment I vote 10!!
