I've had my D850 for two years and I'm still learning fow to use it. Recently I've been using the auto shift function after buying Steve Perry's excellent tutorial on focus stacking https://bcgwebstore.com/product/focus-shift-shooting-digital-workshop-for-nikon/
The D850 replaced my D800 and the auto focus system of the D850 is far superior.
I love the files that it produces and I can't think of a current camera that I would replace it with. Ask me again next year when Nikon brings out the Z8 / Z9.

Your question is a little confusing. No, I would not buy a second D850 because I already have one. Yes, I really like my D850 and love the image quality, and it has it's place in my stable along side the D500 and D5.

Yes I would buy again
I think the fellow that said he had 12 of them meant he had 12 Nikons, NOT 12 D 850’s

Agreed. I use the D850 with older lenses both zoom and prime and see nothing that would make me buy new lenses. I have posted, in the sports photography section, images from a Marshall University football game shot with the D850 and a 400 f2.8 lens that is at least 15 years old. My wife uses the camera with the Nikon 200-400 f4 lens and the results are amazing.

Very straight forward.

yes! along with 24-70 f 2.8mm and 70-200 f2.8. The camera shines with great glass. Don't use cheap lenses

Absolutely. It's the whole package: size, resolution, features, available glass, quality and durability etc.

Absolutely.
Love the major resolution, and I can always choose smaller files (or specific crops, like 1:1) when I prefer that.
