I use mine mostly at night because that seems to be when I have time to shoot.
I think the only place where the 850 may not shine bright is fast action sporting events or BIF.
Another issue that may arise is the size and weight. It's definitely the camera to grab if your heading out to shoot but, I'm looking at a smaller every day carry camera-- looking pretty hard at the Q2..
I have had an 850 since this past August and it works great for sports. I am the photographer at Marshall University, not just sports, but for the entire place.
I have shot, football, both day and night, basketball and soccer just to name a few. The 850 is outstanding for sports and anything else I have used it for. The speed, especially with the power grip, is fine for sports.
I have posted some photos in the sports section taken with the 850.
I, for one, like the weight. I tried using a friend’s Nikon mirrorless. Found holding it steady was difficult
