The Nikon D850, any good?

#Landscapephotography #Photography #NikonD850 #Nikon
Have I really had this camera 6 months? Guess so, come and join me on this infield review and see what this camera can do.
So what's the backstory behind this video?
Well, I’m a Landscape photographer, based in the UK, searching for interesting locations, mainly around the UK, but also travelling further afield. I endeavour to make all of my videos as interesting as possible, with editing skills I've picked up over the years, also with adding music to match the mood of the locations and images. Using a basic set up, consisting of my DJI Osmo Action, my Mavic Pro Drone (although not all the time) and either my trusty Nikon D850 or my Nikon D7200 cameras, for the images.
I always show my images, no matter how unhappy I am with them, I think you as the viewer deserve to see the good along with the bad, after all, if it’s on the video, you've already seen behind the scenes.
So sit back, grab a coffee or a tea, relax and enjoy my slightly unprofessional, sometimes comical, but always crammed with passion video.

i know, that i'm going to buy the d850, as a full frame compliment to my d500. i know, i know, world is moving to the mirorless, but i couldn't care less about that movement, at least at the moment, and i'm pretty sure, the d850 is a camera for me.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Excellent Marius and I'm sure you will love it, I really hope you do. All the best mate.

[@panasonicism]

After selling my D800 and bought the Sony a7iii several years ago, I instantly regretted this decision. I have always wanted the D850. Nikon Canada put on sale in May 2022. I did not hesitate. I bought it and I am loving it. No regrets here.

[@JjackVideo]

The Z8 looks like a great camera, and I'm looking forward to them coming down in prices in 6-7 years. For now, the D850 is incredible bang for buck.

[@joekelly9369]

I bought my second d850 in 2024 , mirrorless isnt for everyone , they can be used in silent no shutter mode when on tripod , mirrorless is a bit camcorderish after borrowing a z9 for 2 weeks , i didnt like it

[@compncv]

I have a D850 and it's an awesome, robust camera. I'm in no rush to go mirrorless. I often hit the screen when doing night photography and just like the rest of the camera, it can take some rough handling. The D850 is a beast.

[@shawncarroll293]

very smart , the difference going to a Z is very little . long live Nikon

[@Firebird56sqn]

I really enjoyed the review and am seriously considering getting a D850. I have had 2 mirrorless cameras after 18 years of DSLR with Canon cameras. But I didn't like them in the end and sold them. Now I want to get myself a D850

[@craig.yates_photography4907]

Hi Ben, I have just upgraded from the D810 to the D850 and some of the points you have made resonate a little. I have spent time setting up, playing and testing the camera before going out on a shoot. I am loving the touch flippy screen , the resolution gives awesome detail, the level of built in features is top notch. I am not keen on the price of the memory cards. You can set this to do longer exposures than 30 seconds, but why did they not include an internal timing device rather then leaving you to time it yourself. For me so far it is a good upgrade from the D810, I have no intention of going mirrorless. Some great images captured and very nice processing. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thank you Craig, yeah I think it's an amazing bit of kit but I feel they could have moved on a bit more, but I guess they would have been deep into the development of the mirrorless at the time. Thank you so much for watching mate, and all the best.

[@billsenior213]

A few years ago I upgraded from Canon APS-C to Nikon full frame. Started with the D750 which seemed to be such a huge leap. Then I acquired a Nikon D800E (36mp) and was shocked at the details. Then in 2020 I bought the D850 thinking it might be just a bit better but no…the jump to 46mp and all the new bells and whistles (focus peaking/ in camera focus stacking) brought my photography to the next level. I just came back from photographing Raptors and some images had to be shot at 10,000 to 14,400 ISO….absolutely no problem. All these leaps had $$$ leaps as well but after accumulating all the lens I think I’m set for the foreseeable future.

[@josefmolina3510]

I use the Nikon Z9 for my wildlife work, which is exquisite when paired with the Nikkor Z 800mm 6.3. But…I find myself also using the D850 still as backup. Especially for the short distance, paired with a Nikkor 70-200mm 2.8 FL. I will never sell it, it’s for me the best DSLR ever made.

[@adamhurst4293]

[@Cedness]

I love my D7200, my D750 and I love and impressed by my D850 ! 👍 For landscape and nature photography, I use 16-35mm, 24-120mm, 70-200mm, 150-600mm and 135mm f/1.8. I tried mirrorless for a year, but I don't love to use it...

[@Nab_Suid]

Why you don't like mirror less cameras?

[@Cedness]

@@Nab_Suid Difficult to explain, but I would simply say that the mirrorless ones give me less pleasure.

[@billingalls1940]

I bought my 850 primarily for wildlife photography. I use a 200 to 500 zoom on a gimbal or hand-held and I am very happy with the results I get and appreciate the big sensor that allows me to crop in on, for example, a blue heron or osprey in flight at the pond near our house. I mainly use 55 point 3D back button focus and find the joy stick handy for moving the center focus point around when I'm looking at a stationary subject. I like the touch screen when reviewing images, but always am reminded to turn it off if the shutter fires when I'm using Live View to zoom to check focus on something. When the pandemic hit I started reading about landscape and astrophotography and then discovered KZbin. My wife and I have several individuals (characters) that we follow, you being one of them. We really liked the double waterfall at 8 minutes in.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thank you so much Bill. I never really thought of the D850 as a wildlife camera due to the slower (although not bad) burst rate, but I guess it should be fine, and yes the options to crop the image to suit is really good, I'm always impressed how far you can go with that. Thanks again Bill, and really appreciated that both of you like the videos, all the best to you both.

[@maggiemorris4143]

I love your videos. Would love to see the settings you used for the images shown and whether you used focus stacking, etc. I just bought D850 a month ago but used D7100 for 10 years. I have a D7200 but inherited it from my dad when he died so I don’t use it because it’s more of a keepsake treasure though I’m sure he’d be happier if I used it. Enjoying the D850 and the novelty of having a full frame sensor for the first time in my life.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thank you so much Maggie. Oh I'm sure you dad would love you to use it, but I completely understand why you don't. Hope you enjoy the 850, full frame is amazing, I still enjoy using full frame. Thanks again, all the best.

[@Telewest792]

Hello Ben i live in Australia and i currently use the Olympus em1x and a om-1 both with 20 mp which for what i do is plenty but i did rent a Nikon d850 and a variety of lenses and i was very impressed especially with the dynamic range 45 mp I believe and as you say the detail in the files wow but i do love my Olympus gear for its weight and i do get some pretty decent photos with their pro lenses so i think it really doesn’t matter what camera one uses as long as you enjoy what you do with what you have its all good. Thanks for taking the time to do a review and for sharing you obvious passion

[@1979kapf]

After owning the D800 since release, I finally made the jump to the D850, purchased used from MBP with 6k actuations so the camera is barely used, it's like new. Managed to trade in my D800 for £380 and got the used D850 for £1389 (£1769 before part ex). One of the reasons for the upgrade was the focus issues on the D800 and was beginning to show its age. I got the Nikon 135 F2 DC and found the lens to be really soft especially wide open and even tried the manual finetune but still would back focus just behind the ear rather than the eye. On the D850 with the auto finetune, this issue is gone, so much sharper due to the focusing being on spot every time. For me it was worth the upgrade but the D800 has served me very well over the years. Excellent and informative video which reinforced my purchase!

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thank you so much Keith, always nice to know, I’m sure you’ll love the D850, it’s an amazing camera. Thanks for watching mate and all the best.

[@thomasphillips5850]

Thank you Ben, great images. I shoot with the 850 as well, on a tripod it can not be beat. Amazing image quality. I also shoot with a canon R6, nice camera as well. But my 850 is my beast. Thanks for taking us along. I am located in southern Maine, it truly is a photographers dream here.

[@aussie8114]

You are to be admired persevering with a vintage camera. Not sure how you get such nice waterfall photos without Ostrich eye AF and 100 frames a second 😂 I manage with my antique D810. Never went with the D850 because I like my little pop up flash 📸

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thank you so much. Yeah I forgot the D810 has that flash, that does come in useful. There honestly isn't much difference between the two. Thanks again and all the best.

[@billsenior213]

Nikon D7200 vs D850. Depends what you’re shooting -and- what you are doing with the image. Truly need the resolution and/or incredible ISO performance and huge prints….then D850. Take image in ‘average’ light and minimal cropping, yes, D7200.

[@garythrelfall8268]

Once again, amazing images Ben, the saturation and clarity of them is second to none - superb.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thank you so much Gary, as always, really appreciated.

[@paulconnors2078]

Is the D850 any good? Hmmmm, a rhetorical question and one that is proven time and time again by everyone who have ever used this camera. For me, it is the last truly great DSLR and I bought another NEW one 6 months AFTER buying my first mirrorless camera - the Z9. That's how much faith I have in the D850. Another great video. Well done and thank you for your continued great content!

[@petersuvara]

Jus waiting for our D850 to arrive. Finally bit the bullet and not going to look back. :) Already have a range of the F mount lenses and the price of the D850 is well below the Z7 II, so here we go. D850 it is and I get to use my great F mount lenses without having to use use a a lens adapter which I have read can reduce image quality.

[@kennypringle4580]

I’ve owned sooo many Nikon cameras in the past 16 years, from d40x, d5100, d5200, d7100, d7200, d800, d500, d810, to d850. Today I mostly shoot with 2 d500’s and or 2 d850’s depending on the situation. I like my Nikon d810 for portraits but not for events where I’m constantly moving and having to move the focus point. I like the d500 and d850 joy stick toggle, the flip out screen, the touch screen, the xqd cards/sd cards. I do wish the d850 wasn’t SO LOUD. I shooter weddings with it so this is a bit of an issue to me. Once you use a joy stick toggle you’ll never go back to a camera that lacks one when shooting events. But I do keep my d810 for portrait work and just because I like it. So yes, I have 5 cameras and I admit I have a collection problem. I might (should) sell the 2 d500’s and my 3 DX lenses.

[@raywood5313]

Hi Ben, just stumbled upon your channel, an excellent look at the D850, I have a D800 which I've been pleased with, I have thought about getting an D850 your review has helped with my decision.

[@neileverett5183]

Hi Ben great images and review I’m currently shooting with a Nikon D7200 which as you say is a great camera. I found your review of the D850 interesting as when I feel that I need to move on it’s one of the cameras that I would be considering, however it’s going to be awhile before I do.

[@neileverett5183]

Thank you Ben much appreciated.

[@garythrelfall8268]

“Ditto” 👍

[@treyedean]

Love the video but I disagree with the leap from the D7200 to the D850. Perhaps in good light, there isn't much difference but when you start shooting in low light or action, that full frame and BSI CMOS of the D850 really makes a huge difference. I currently have the D7200 and the D5. I just purchased the D850 and haven't checked it out it out yet but I fully expect it to be lightyears ahead of the D7200 in terms of noise and low light performance, which is where i do a lot of my shooting. The ultimate goal is to have the D5 and the D850. I'll be selling my D7200.

[@markwith140]

I have a d800e, and the reality of it is that it works just fine. I am considering the d850 as an upgrade. My d800e is probably around 10 years old now and getting a bit dated from a features perspective. I like the idea of the illuminated buttons, the connectivity, the increased mp and Dynamic range. I like the battery life, I don't think I could live with the 300 or so battery life of the mirror less equivalent. Not so bothered about the flippy screen. I like that it will be totally familiar with it and just be able to pick it up and go. I have a vast range of f mount lenses so again it puts me off going down the mirror less route. It's kind of what you said, it probably like my d800e, but just a bit better.

[@lesboucher542]

Here I was, all set to upgrade from the D7200 to the D850 and now I'm having second, and third, thoughts... Back to the drawing board....

[@r2drone227]

If you just compare the 850 to the 7200 for landscape photography then I might agree that there might not be a great deal between the two in IDEAL situations. Apart from the much better dynamic range and far superior low light capabilities of the D850. But as soon as you look at moving objects such as sport, motorsport, wildlife especially birds in flight the 7200 isn’t comparable to the 850. The D850 is leaps and bounds in front with its much better focussing and tracking system. If you move over to mirrorless, perhaps the z8, you will still have huge files. It’s just the way things are going with ever better sensors. So no point in complaining about processing on your lap top. You’ll just have to invest in a faster lap top for any processing in the future as file sizes are never going to get any smaller. I loved your waterfall photos. But showing them on a KZbin video will never show up the better quality of the 850. For that you need a good computer screen and be able to zoom in to truly see the difference in resolution and definition. I have a D850 and an old D3S 12megapixels! At A4 size on a computer screen you would be hard pressed to tell the difference. But zoom into 100 percent and the difference jumps out at you.

[@cowboyspook]

My biggest negative on the D850, and other Nikon DSLRs, is the photo shooting menu banks. Since any changes to the settings are automatically recorded to the current bank, the feature is not very practical. User-defined mode setting on other camera brands are much more useful, as the setting are updated only by the menu system.

[@toadyw950]

I agree! This “feature” has been an irritation ever since my first DSLR (D200) way back in 2005(?). In my opinion it makes the concept of memory presets virtually useless. This is never mentioned in reviews and I got to think it was just me being picky…

[@The-Tall-Photographer]

A nice review Ben. As you know through an earlier conversation I to use a D850 and have ordered a second body. So far I love it, to the point I'm disposing of my two Z6ii bodies and Z lenses. As good as mirrorless are I find the 850 a better camera for what I do - the 850 working better for conferences and events which is important as I can't afford to miss that shot.

[@petersuvara]

Very interesting. What does the 850 do that you dropped the Z6 II

[@The-Tall-Photographer]

What does the 850 do that the Z6ii doesn’t? For me it focuses better in low light, fast and reliable. Outdoors the Z is fantastic and gives the 850 a run for its money but for critical work not so. The other thing I’ve noticed is it’s too small in the hand so the grip is essential. Build quality initially feels good but that’s actually not the case with many suffering issues. In conclusion, the 850 is built better both externally and internally with a recent tear down surprising people. Interestingly the 850 uses a custom designed Nikon sensor not manufactured by Sony. Nikon really did pull out all the stops with this camera which will explain its legendary reputation.

[@petersuvara]

@@The-Tall-Photographer thanks for the information. I feel good about my choice for photography for another few years. :) My D3400 was a great introduction. Jumped straight up to the D850 now. :)

[@MassimoLeotardiPhotography]

Hi, I had the D850 for some time now, and the D7500 and D750 before it, and I think is a wonderful camera. It has many useful features, like in-camera cropping, focus peaking, and focus shift. Being based in Warrington, I mainly do woodlands photography in the Peak District and Delamere forest. The D850 is ideal, even if it doesn't forgive you if you are not super accurate with the exposure. Been launched in 2017 it hasn't maybe got all the features of a modern mirrorless camera, but it is still an iconic piece of kit and if I have to change it for any reason I would buy another D850. Cheers

The sun is clearly setting on DSLR technology, which leaves me wondering if the D850 is a wise choice. Would I be better jumping to mirrorless, despite some reservations? Your video helpfully reminded me that even by 2022 standards the D850 is a superb image making tool and mirrorless technology may not actually give me any real-world advantage.

Hi Ben, what a fantastic location, I,d never heard of it. Your shot at 8.00 is awesome, load,s of detail/interest. My criteria for a camera system was weight/cost, so it,s Olympus, just invested in the OMD Mk2, with firmware updates close to the EM1 X. Kept the Mk1 as backup. Can,t really see a diff going from 16MP to 20Mp, ex in low light. Your Nikon is superb kit, however it,s close to 2k used, then glass? Also, weather sealed kit is important, next on my list 12MM to 40MM, Pro, of course weather sealed, you double to focal lenth for full frame eqiv, so 24- 80, moderate wide angle to portrait. Keep up the good work.

Depends what you want to do with it. I'm personally saving up for D850 and one of Z cameras(for video), but my main priority is D850 as I'm into photography more than videography. If you don't have a large budget, get the D780 as it's best of both worlds.

So bizarre how your criticizing the absolutely amazing touch screen. I mean, WTF. Have you tried any of the Sony "touch" screens? They are absolute garbage in comparison. 5 years on and the D850 screen is still super hi res and extremely touch friendly. Other than that, great review. But my God, I couldnt beleive you dont like the screen. I mean are we using the same camera?

Wow, a lot of emotion in a comment, yeah never liked the back screen and honestly I don’t think I will, I don’t think touchscreens are great in the field, the D810 was so much more simple and in turn much easier to use. If the screen is going to do something, at least make it turn so you can see it in portrait. Thanks for the great review comment, cheers.

@@BenMcDonaldPhotography I dont know what it is that you see in that camera , that Sensor is utter trash , sure thing it has Dynamic range , but how much dynamic range you need to take a portrait , not a lot . For Landscape sure , you need it , but put a graduated Filter on the lens , there you go you have 3F stops more DR. Not to go too deep like lack of Off Camera Flash controls and such in the body , the body it self is not a problem. it is the sensor . Low light video poor , low light focusing poor , colors precise but ugly , color separation subpar, lens selection less then ideal , 70-200mm is more like 130mm when shooting close . The body it self is not that bad , has wifi , but the picture is what matters , and its just not giving me that something You like Nikon colors ?

​@@dedskin1,судя по комменту, что матрица D850 - это мусор, вы ненавидите Никон и поэтому тут " брызжите слюной" , поливая гавном отличный фотоаппарат. Идите с себе домой и там снимайте своим мусором . Ваше неадекватное мнение никому тут не интересно.
