Review Summary

Rated 5 out of 5

10/10 I'd recommend! In fact, I now want another one!

I bought the D850 as an upgrade for my D810, and I LOVE it so much! The touch screen is very helpful and how the pinchable zoom in/out feature makes photoshoots takes the "did I get the sharpness" guesswork out, which makes me tempted to buy a second D850 camera body! The bundle with the Flashpoint is terrific because this off-camera flash is very lightweight and easy to use. I've had a Nikon OFC in the past that had a broken piece, and I am very pleased with how fast this charges and how much light is emitted in comparison.

Very Happy

Moving up from a D810 I'm pleasantly surprised about the upgrade. Sadly it is probably the last DSLR and Nikon is moving to mirrorless.

Wow!!!!!

Great camera!!! I'm sure that I will never use all of the features that it has to offer but I'm glad that as my technical skills improve, this camera body's bells and whistles are available as my knowledge of photography increases.

Like It So Much, I Bought a Second One

Absolutely delighted. Nikon is phasing out F mount bodies, so I bought this second one on sale. I have a substantial investment in F mount lenses, and zero interest in moving to mirrorless.

I'm loving it

So far I'm left in the d850. You can come from a d90 that I've been shooting with for the past 13 years. Wanted to make the jump to full frame before a big trip that I have planned. The camera feels rugged and there's plenty of tutorials on how to get the most out of the camera.

Beautiful camera with 42 megapixels the quality is unmatched. You could blow a photo of 10 foot and still look good. Highly recommend it.

My second D850!

I have enjoyed my first D850 for 6 years, and decided to purchase a second one as a backup, and a secondary lens setup on my photography ventures. I have no desire for any other camera with this proven winner. Highly recommend!!

Thoughts on my trusty D850, and how heavy it is.

I acquired the Nikon D850 upon its release several years ago, primarily for travel photography. While my passion is travel, not professional photography, the camera's strengths are well-documented. However, its significant weight and size present challenges. Extended periods with the camera around my neck are uncomfortable, and accessing it from my backpack while traveling is inconvenient. I predominantly use a zoom lens to minimize lens changes, resulting in underutilization of my 50mm prime lens. Employing primarily manual settings has rekindled skills honed in my youth with a Leica M2. The camera's flash capabilities are exceptional, and I intend to explore the use of dual flash units. Regardless, mastering the D850's full potential necessitates dedicated practice and training. I am 63 merchant marine officer still boarding ships.

Great Camera

I went from a Nikon D3 to a Nikon 850 which was a quantum leap in image quality. Built exceptionally well with good balance in the hands. My only pet peeve is that it doesn't show the exact frame number in the LCD display. Unless I am doing something wrong, it might be because the memory card holds so many images, it would take up too much space in the display. With a new card, mine shows 1.7k, which I assume means 1,700. Otherwise great camera.

Nice upgrade for me

After years of being stingy I upgraded to this camera from the D750. Wow! This is terrific and I wish I'd done it sooner. The file sizes are large enough that I can crop out little mistakes around the edges without ruining my shot. The best part is that I was able to keep all my original lenses without adapters. I highly recommend this camera to anyone with a bit of experience shooting.

Highly Recommend The Nikon D850!

Purchased a second D850 as a backup to my first one. I have had my first one since 2018. It's a beast, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. I have no desire to go mirrorless.

bundle bungle

of course the D850 was great. the bundle, unfortunately was a bunch of low quality product, you would think this fairly high end camera would be bundled with better quality stuff. the memory card was fine. battery is after market. card reader has already failed. bag too small for anything. delivery was super quick. even with the crappy bundle, i am happy with adorama and will shop again.

Great camera & great service

Great camera! Competitive with full frame mirrorless bodies (considered Z7II) while maintaining familiar DSLR controls and style. Additionally, great selection of excellent condition DSLR lenses are available from Adorama due to many individuals transitioning to mirrorless. The bundled items were useful and sold me on adorama versus competitors

Nikon D850 is the bomb!

I just did my first session and the clarity is amazing. The high ISO capabilities are way better than the D610 I used previously. The kit had lots of great extras that buying from Amazon won't give you for the same price.

Still one of the best cameras available

Despite the releases of so many new cameras, this camera still remains relevant and will continue to be. The ergonomics, the sensor, the image quality, the easy of use and availability of great lenses makes this a keeper.

One of the greatest purchases I've ever made

Bought this camera almost 5 years ago and never looked back. The ergonomics are incredible, the images you capture with this will drop your jaw from the back screen to the big screen, the jpegs SOOC are sublime, as I write this in 2023 in an era where mirrorless is the "future" I confidently say there I have zero desire to "upgrade" unless my D850 and all other D850s around the the world simultaneously combusted along with the schematics to manufacture new D850s. There's a reason why all the new 45mp mirrorless Nikons being are compared to this 5 year old camera when your assumed that they moved on to a newer camera as a point of refrence: because ithe D850 is just that good. Video is an afterthought, features that Nikon merely tacked on to just say they're on there. Outside of static postiion video recordings, I wouldn't choose this for video if that's in your top 3 list of priorities for a camera purchase, this is a stills Jack-of-all-trades tool

Almost as expected.

Came from Nik 810 and before that 800e. Tried out d850 4 years ago and sensor better if cropping, so really better. Waited for N upgrade with meaningful better sensor, ie., Z series, but pretty close didn't mean worth upgrade for me. Already have range of N primes, zooms, 300 2.8, nik 200mm macro, etc. Yet to pull trigger on 500mm. 20 yr Nikon user. Decided to use existing lenses w D850. I bought 250 mb card which prob don't need as won't be doing video. Point is new cards should be factored into alternative cost of Z9. I thought focus shifting a bonus but doesn't work with my macro lenses that aren't afs, menu grayed out, bummer, as focus shift for macro might be nice. Live view and focus peaking for macro, only in manual mode, works and is useful. That one reason worth keeping, for me. Nikon long telephoto are expensive and so much so that if I add that would strongly consider entire switch to Sony if I decide long tele and birds in flight something I "need."

Incredible DSLR NIKON D850

I couldn't be more pleased with this Nikon D850. I was concerned that, being an amateur, the camera would be too overwhelming. In good ways it is overwhelming! Other reviewers spoke so highly of the Nikon D850 I couldn't resist. So far I have only touched the surface of the capabilities and look forward to learning so much more! Adorama's description of the item (used) was very accurate.

About Nikon D850 DSLR Camera Body

FEATURED REVIEWS

Nikon's Best Landscape Camera

By NatureBuff

The D850 by far is the Best Camera so far that Nikon has developed! The D850 performs excellently in the field and delivers the sharpest photos for landscape photographers. With the Focus Shift (Focus Stacking) feature built-in the camera, it delivers a beautiful and sharp photo from the foreground to infinity. Another feature I really like is the Focus Peaking. The D850 would also be great on Portraits, Weddings, Macro's, Wildlife and so many more fields in photography.
