Skexzies
The best Nikon body ever built. Bar none! About time Nikon showed the ‘rest of the middling players’ like Cannon, Sony and Fuji; how to build a DSLR. Love the 4K video! Is it better than any other mirrored DSLR made? Yes. Is it perfect? No. It is losing a star over the following: Upper left control knob. Some ignorant Manager at Nikon allowed “QUALITY” to occupy a position on the most expensive real-estate on the entire camera. Another poor decision maker at Nikon mixed the memory slots. Really Nikon??? XQD and SD mixed together? Incomprehensible! Finally – the shutter release is horribly “mushy” with little tactile feel. Nikon should partner with a Trigger/Rifle manufacturer to see what a good trigger feels like. Then incorporate that ‘feel’ into the Shutter release. I get several “multi fires” because the mushy feel allows a bounce photo to be taken. But those are just my personal peeves with it. Otherwise, I highly recommend it. Is it worth the $$$ in the age of moving towards Mirrorless Cameras? Yes – just like buying a new gasoline powered car ‘now’ is in the evolution to battery cars. The transition to work out ‘problems’ and optimize the systems will take a decade. Buy Mirrorless in the late 2020’s and onwards. For now, the D850 will easily take you to that time.
