I viewed the D850 as a bit of a suspect camera, remembering the highly praised sensor, which was never implemented in a flagship camera,...why not if it was so good ?.....but perhaps they did and called it something else, remembering the D1 sensor which is specified at 2.6 mpixel with it actually being a 10.4 mpixel .sensor,...and then the sensor technology implemented with the D1X, shows that Nikon pixels seem to be somewhat different compared to others.
The D850 is an expensive second-hander, seeing as it was not that costly when new , there is one up for grabs with very low shutter count without a scratch on it, asking price is 1200 pounds,... for a brisk walk just the camera with a 55 f1.2 ,and for serious work perhaps with a motor added, could be interesting....but so far have I only looked at the flagships ,and the D6 is still my nr. 1 choice, and 1200 quid would be a large chunk from a 2hnd. D6 funding,..there is also the battery and charger to consider, as I have several mh-21 / mh-22 chargers and a heap off EN-EL4 batteries.. I am wondering if those could be converted to fit in a D6, by shortening an en-el 4 , does anyone know?
Does the D850 work well with AI-S lenses ?
