I really do like my 28-300. The OIS works
very well. Be aware that in household size
rooms where your subject distance is often
10ft or less, then the long end is reduced
to about 135mm, even tho the control ring
reads 300. IOW, extreme focus breathing.

Due to the size of the 28-300, I also got a
24-120 which now sees more use than the
28-300. The 24-120 is more general use ...
for me ... and I only switch to the 28-300
if I absolutely know I'll need it.

If I could only keep one of the lenses, it's
the 24-120. I have no problem simply not
taking the few pictures that need the extra
reach, plus I prefer the shorter wide end.

I'm aware of lens geeks and their opinions
about these wide ratio zooms. If you are
vulnerable to such propaganda then you'll
never sleep well at night if you buy one !

Lou, a number of folks here have said that one must use "the best glass/lenses" with the D850. I admit that using higher quality lenses maximizes the image detail potential of the 850 but, seriously, hasn't that always been true with any camera going back to film days?
In my experience, because the 850 captures so much detail it seems to make even "cheap" lenses look good. But if you want the absolute highest quality images, use the best glass you can afford, use the camera's lowest native ISO, use a tripod with a remote release, focus accurately, use a lens hood, block the wind, and nail the exposure. Best of luck and don't forget to share your shots on UHH.

I have a D-800e and got a new 850 and cover lots of events. The magic of the d-850 can be found at concerts. The other end of the magic spectrum is the low light capability with very little noise. The "concert" metering is simply stunning.

The shooting had the camera pushed to it highest ISO. That other cool feature of the D-850 is the built in light room settings that delivered the picture to my phone with NO Lightroom or Photoshop touchup.

I carry a 80-400 and a 2.8 28-70 in my bag for most of my events.

Another is stunning feature is the HSS capability. It's heavy but worth the pain!

My full frame camera is the 24 Mp. D610. The camera gives me excellent files with plenty of pixels for enlargements. I do not print murals.
Before I upgrade, not very common with me, I always ask myself the same question "will the new camera give me better files?" A new camera could have features that will make my photography easier but surely I do not need 45 Mp. nor I print to sizes requiring so many pixels.
I am not a pixel peeper for sure.

Now that you have the D850 you will have to print really big to tell the difference with the D610 if indeed you print big often. My most used lenses with the D610 are the 24-85 f3.5-4.5 AF, VR and the 28-105 f3.5-4.5 AF.
Congratulations and enjoy your new camera.

The 'update' function with Lightroom does not work. There are no active computers at Adobe that respond to requests from your stand alone software. When you say 'up to date', what does the Help / About menu say from within LR?

I bookmarked a recent link that gave two links for the Windows and Mac versions of the update file. I'm already at v6.14, so I can't say these will get you to v6.14, but they're suppose to .... Download and see what happens.
