The Nikon D850 is Nikon's latest high resolution full-frame DSLR, boasting a 46MP backside-illuminated CMOS sensor. But, in a fairly radical departure for the series, it is also one of the company's fastest-shooting DSLRs.

Best camera I had in 30 years AF-technique. Not perfect and I still need my D500 too! The monitor should be fully moveable and the Live-View AF must get faster. It's all about lenses - I had Canon for 20 years with all great lenses (1.2/50, 1.2/85, 2.0/135, 2.8/300, 2.8/400, 5.6/800) so switching...

this camera is the best camera in the world.... I upgraded from my d5100, which I still have to this d850 super camera love all the features and my photos are coming out so sharp even hand held..... originally I was going to buy the d810 but my husband suggested the d850 instead....

With a resolution of 45.7 megapixels and an Australian RRP of $5,200 (body only), the D850 is aimed squarely at Nikon-using professional photographers looking for medium format level resolution. Doubtless there will also be a few well-heeled landscape shooters taking a closer look too...

Whether or not the D850 is even on your radar is largely dependent on how vested you are in your current camera system, and whether or not that system is Nikon. Let's talk about other systems first. For Canon devotees, we recommend the EOS 5D Mark IV in the professional full-frame class.

Full-frame 45.7MP image sensor; 153-point autofocus system; 7fps burst shooting; Wide ISO range; 4K video; Large optical viewfinder; Tilting touch LCD; Dual card slots; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi

Live View focus uses contrast detection only; Omits built-in flash; SnapBridge system needs some work

The new Nikon D850 is a 45.7 megapixel full-frame DSLR camera that uses a back-side illuminated (BSI) sensor with no optical low-pass filter. The D850 offers continuous shooting at 7 frames per second at full resolution with full AF performance, or an even faster 9fps with the optional MB-D18 Multi...

The Nikon D850 DSLR has just hit the market to an initial round of applause that - on initial tests - is more than deserved. The long-awaited replacement for 2014's D810 - a good camera in its own right - has a stream of improvements and pluses with very few negatives.

Fast - 7 to 9 frames per second; Tilting; touch LCD; 153-point AF system; Superb image performance

No built-in flash; No GPS; Uses the so-so SnapBridge system rather than offering built in connectivity

Perhaps one of the most anticipated camera releases of 2017 has been the D810 successor, the Nikon D850. Nikon's high resolution camera body shook up the industry once again, this time with a strong punch, making the Nikon D850 the most versatile DSLR on the market.

Greatest Nikon dslr. Every scenic situation is taken by this camera with exelence . I have not interest in video. I think that at my age (70), this is it. Not interested in mirrorless, it feels strange, I feel Im looking at a tiny TV, but that its just me.Been shooting Nikon since Nikormat, so I...

Nikon wetted the appetite of many photographers earlier this year with news that it was working on a follow-up to its high-resolution full-frame D810 in the form of the D850. When the wraps finally came off the D850, it struck up a similar level of hype to the company's announcements of its high...

Sensor resolves exceptionally fine detail; Super-fast autofocus and silent shooting in Live View; Inherits AF toggle from D500 for fast AF point positioning; Impressive battery life with EN-EL15a battery

Lacks on-chip phase detection AF in Live View; Touchscreen doesn't allow users to adjust key exposure settings; SnapBridge connectivity requires improvement
