I agree with Geoff that for an extra £200 the D850 looks to be the better purchase.
That needs to be tempered by considering the Megga large files together with the additional processing and storage costs. My iMac grinds to a standstill with the D800 files, let alone D850 files.  I still haven't revived my Mac Pro, which doesn't even blink with these very large files, the iMac is a reasonable spec 14.2 Last year I almost filled a 500Gb SSD with D800 files and I did very little photography after mid May, so at least a terabyte a year of modest photography.

To me that seems an infinitely more important consideration than what to do with my pinky.
