Key Advantages

The Nikon D850 offers outstanding image resolution with its 45.7-megapixel BSI CMOS sensor, providing exceptional detail and dynamic range. Its robust autofocus system with 153 focus points delivers fast, accurate tracking of moving subjects. The camera's 7 fps continuous shooting speed is impressive for a high-resolution full-frame DSLR, allowing photographers to capture fast action. 4K UHD video recording utilizes the full sensor width, resulting in high-quality footage without cropping. The body design is rugged and weather-sealed, ensuring reliability under tough conditions. Dual card slots enhance workflow flexibility and storage security during shoots.

Limitations

The Nikon D850 is relatively heavy and bulky compared to mirrorless cameras, which can affect portability for some users. Its high resolution generates large file sizes, requiring significant storage capacity and processing power. The autofocus system, while advanced, might occasionally struggle in extremely low-contrast or low-light conditions. Battery life, though improved, may still be limited during extended video recording sessions. The price point is high, reflecting professional-level features but may be prohibitive for entry-level photographers. Additionally, the camera does not include in-body image stabilization, relying on lens stabilization instead.
