Yes but would consider the Z7 which was just out when I bought my 850.

Hope this is as a straight foward question as I would like it to be. For owners of the D 850 after using the D 850 would you buy again after your experience with it?


Yes, still the best DSLR made.

The choice of camera can depend on your use. Many macro and bird photographers are still sporting older D7100s due to the pixel density which is 10% higher than the D850. I still use both the D7100 and D7200 in technical photography for this reason. But the D850 is definitely on my list for the artistic modeling shoots. It looks like the prices are creeping down.

Absolutely! Best images I have ever captured are with my D850. And....my D800e was NO PIKER!

Yes, no reservations. The D850 is possibly the best general purpose Full frame DSLR on planet earth today.

Absolutely! I purchased mine after evaluation the mirrorless cameras from Sony & Canon. It's a beast of a camera!

I don’t need a D850 but I have 2. Reasoning? The few times I need one I got it, the one time one might fail me when I need it I have a backup.

It’s a great camera, best out of all the Nikons I’ve owned. So far. With the second gen mirrorless out I may try them.

I have a couple of questions about the D850 since we are on the topic.

1. How do the two different type memory card slots work? Can I still use either as primary and use the other as backup or extended space?
2. The viewfinder looks to be larger. Is it functionally better?

Yes, you can use the secondary card slot as overflow if you want or one as NEF and the other as JPEG.

Without question. . . yes, absolutely. I have D850, D750, D500. For large photos, I use D850. For walking around D750. For super telephoto, I use D500.
