This is my 2nd post, and I have truly gotten to enjoy all the other postings. I look forward to receiving and opening this email every day. So, I need some help/advice. The majority of my photography is shooting grandkids sports and school events and landscapes. I currently use a Nikon D7200, and my lenses are the Sigma 18-35, 1.8; the Tamron 24-70, 2.4; the Tamron 70-200, 2.4; and the Tamron 18-400, 5.6. I also use the Tamron 150-600 at times and the Nikon 105 for macro photography. Typically, when shooting a soccer or baseball game outside, I have great success with either the 24-70 or the 70-200. I can get some really sharp images. On a cloudy day I might have to adjust the ISO a bit, or even go to Auto ISO. But there is almost always enough light outside. However, when I go indoors, it’s a different story. I will shoot in a variety of gyms and trying to freeze movement, at a basketball game for example, is really difficult. And going to a higher ISO for those types of shots just doesn’t give me what I’m looking for. I almost always use a monopod or tripod when I shoot indoors.
The question, then, is: Would I have better results with the Nikon D850? From everything that I have read so far, it seems that the D850 is better designed for the type of indoor photography that I like to do, and landscapes as well. I would really welcome any and all advice. Thanks!

I believe you would be better served by the Nikon D500. It also has the same focusing system as the D850 and D5. Plus, your getting more reach AND the D500 has a focusing system called GROUP AUTO FOCUS which the D7200 has not. As long as the cluster of 4 squares are on your subject you are in focus. PLUS, the D500 is much better at high speeds than the D7200, so you can crank it up and hand hold with your 70-200. AND, the D500 is currently on sale until tomorrow and Nikon throws in a free batter grip, plus B&H throws in a memory card and camera bag. Hurry, this black friday deal ends tomorrow.
