Nikon D850 Review
The Nikon D850 is the first DSLR that truly fits both speed and resolution in the same camera.
45.7-megapixel full-frame sensor renders excellent detail ; Speedy 153-point autofocus system ; 7 fps burst mode; 9 fps with battery grip ; Sturdy, weather-sealed design ; 4K video and 1080p slow-motion
Live-view autofocus is slower ; Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection isn’t always reliable ; Pricey

Nikon D850 Review
Which is the best DSLR? For a high percentage of photographers, the Nikon D850 is going to be that camera (as of review time). The D850 is arguably the best DSLR available and a worthy upgrade from any other (minimally) Nikon DSLR camera model,...

If all these specs turn out to be right, Nikon will again launch a very impressive camera. We will have to wait until August 24, 2017, that´s the release date of this new Full-Frame camera.

Nikon D850 Review: Why it's the best SLR Nikon's made. Ever.
The D850 is easily Nikon's most versatile DSLR to date. Offering a new 45MP sensor, faster processor and an improved weather-sealed body, the D850 is comfortable, highly customizable and able to photograph pretty much whatever you want to throw at it.
Class-leading resolution; Excellent dynamic range; Very good high ISO performance; Very fast AF and burst shooting; Durable weather-sealed body; Improved ergonomics; Touchscreen; Dual card slots; 4K video.
Live view/video mode still uses sluggish contrast-detect AF; Viewfinder only tests at ~98% coverage; No 4K at 60p; 30-minute video clip limit; Focus peaking not supported with 4K.
