FYI...(I am not sure if I stated this in this thread)...The D5 is my primary camera for sports action. For night football games, I use nothing but F2.8 lenses, and faster, including a Nikon 400/F2.8 E FL. Nothing else will fit the bill for that! The D850 is now my tag-a-long camera, hanging off my left shoulder, used when the action get too close for the 400. Normally, it carries the 70-200/F2.8E FL, but sometimes something faster and shorter. I was previously using a D500 for this, but recently replaced it with a D850. MY results are what matter the most to me, and I am very happy with this new combination. Normally I shoot wide open, using a set shutter speed (depends on the light available at the game, but I prefer 1/1000th for this work, and either use auto ISO if the lighting varies quite a bit, or on a set ISO. Everything varies by venue, time of day, uniform colors, etc.. Best of luck.

You have an enviable set up, but not everyone has the means to be as decked out as you seem to be. Hopefully your sports photography is good enough to pay the bills for all your equipment.
