Those of you who have owned both, what is your feeling? I'm not asking for the all specification differences. . . That is available anywhere and everywhere.

I'm asking for your professional subjective impressions gleaned from living with and working with these two Pro cameras.

Crabs and curmudgeons need not reply.

I have used Nikon Digital cameras since 2001. The D1,D2,D3,D4 and D5 including the H and S models. Since I retired from my job of 41 years as the photographer at Marshall University, I now own the D850. Overall the D5 was the best of the lot. It’s low light capabilities are great as well as its speed in number of shots per second and the auto focus. It had the best camera/flash combination since the F5.
The D850 is a great camera also, outstanding low light performance, good frame rate and the autofocus is on par with the D5. It’s also a great handling camera.
BTW, Marshall University is the NCAA national champion in men’s soccer. They took the title tonight with a 1-nil overtime victory over Indiana University.

Thanks
