Thanks Bill_de! Seems I missed out on a few used options by a couple of days :(

Hello all! I'm new to the forum and have searched previous posts but not found any recent on the above topics. Now that Nikon is moving a bit on the price of the D850, I'm back to asking the 'upgrade' question. I'm 99% sure I don't want to go mirrorless, but is it worth the jump to the D850? I'm no pro, but I don't use auto; I shoot RAW and do post in LR. Most of my photography is family/friends, dogs & horses and lots of lacrosse games. I never charge for pics (and try not to shoot at events where a pro is booked!), but they are used by many in announcements, holiday cards, gifts and social media. The upgrade would 'just' be for me - to get better and perhaps eventually make something of it...

Second question is another that I haven't found any recent posts on. My main lens is the newer Nikkor 70-200mm 2.8. It was a huge leap from the 70-300mm and has given me a much better appreciation for the better glass. I'm venturing into some portrait-ish work, and would like a prime to round-out my equipment. A 105mm seems to be the best fit. Most of the reviews I have found favor the Sigma, but it weighs more than the 70-200.

Thoughts?
