$5200 includes a f/2.8 zoom lens. The body is $2900. But I'm not switching to Sony at this stage of the game.  If Nikon can beat Sony, I'll jump. |

Interesting. From what I'm seeing, they might keep the D810 and D850 running at the same time. The below is supposedly from Nikon Austria. Basically a FX version of the D500.

Just read something that the D850 is the rumored mini D5, and is based on the D5 not the D810. Quote HistoryQuoted:

We'll see soon though. Then I have to sell a lot of blood and maybe someone else's kidney to fund it.

Yeah I wish my laptop had a built in slot, so far I just plug the camera into the computer since with USB 3.0 it transfers pretty fast. It would certainly be easier to be able to just pull the card and plug it in rather than having to dig out a cable and have the camera sitting with me. |

When I got my one and only Lexar XQD card they had a deal with a free reader dongle. Easier than the camera, but not as easy as a slot. I don't even fuck with the reader. I use the SD slot on the camera. Shoot on XQD, transfer to SD, import and process as usual. Even less fiddling.

If this thing comes out at or under $4000, im going to fo, and fo hard.
Over $4000, eh, with a new house, and a perfectly working D610, it's just not justifiable for me at this time. Put me down as excited, but cautious.

New firmware is ready, a new bluetooth control was registered with the FCC with a release date of 9/30, and potentially another camera will be at the big announcement at the end of next month on top of the D850.

 @Zack3g if you are getting rid of your D750 you'll want this. I need to sell someone's kidney for one. Built in and programmable focus stacking for macro would get your attention I think.

It works out to about a 20mp DX crop mode.
So basically d500 size. I have my focus stacking solution already but it can't be denied that's a hell of a camera. |

So, I get that the 9fps rate is with the grip, but is it 7 or 5 fps without the grip? Where does the 7 come from? From the source article: "Focus adjusting system could offer you deeply stacked* picture * require software from other companies" I interpret that to mean the D850 in focus stack mode will operate in a mode similar to bracketing where it will take a range of photos at different focus distance intervals as determined by the operator and continuing out to as much as infinity focus. Then you'll need to use Photoshop (or similar) to stack them into a final product. This does not sound like the D750's HDR mode where this is only available in JPEG mode and you get a single camera-processed image. If indeed we get all the raw files, this feature will be "yuge" for landscape and macro shooters. The enhancements to the LiveView screen are appealing - and I like the continuous electronic shutter for quiet mode. That's a much better solution than what I get with the D750 - and I use the D750's tilt screen *very* frequently. I also like the lack of an anti-aliasing/low pass filter. While rare for me, there have been times I've looked at fine detail in an image that I knew should have been sharper (focus spot on, clean lens with fast glass, no wind, tripod, M-Up, etc.) and wondered if that was the anti-aliasing filter's fault. Very rare, but it has happened and made me curious about the result had I used a D810. If all these "rumors" are close to true, I know what I'm getting for my birthday (or Christmas, depending on actual release date). |

And yeah, I'll be trying to figure out how to buy one regardless. Figure it shoots almost as fast as a D500 with a grip on it (which is a given for me having) and is over twice the resolution, better AF, etc. So it'll come out to less than if I bought a D810 and a D500. That's a win for me. Just need to sell someone's kidney for it.

Looks to be around $3600 for the body as expected, although we'll likely hear officially on that in the next week and a half IMO.
Amazingly it looks like it's about the size of a Df

Interesting news tidbit.
-Nikon is pushing harder into medical optics, which they are already a huge supplier for. -They are paring down product lines to simplify production and supply. -BUT are pushing for larger resolution, definition, dynamic range, etc. -Nikon wants to head off 8k video and stills, so they are developing new lenses and sensors specifically for that. |

It's a beast of a camera if the specs ring true and it performs to expectation. I'm sure it will work well for some.
TBH, I'd prefer lower MP sensors with continued improvements in DR, noise, and high ISO. Definitely a YMMV. |

The leaked 'official' press release.
My notes: -Sony backlit sensor confirmed. -Focus stacking does not need external software -SD UHS II and XQD like the D500. Personally I'd have preferred two of XQD, but that would save money in the long run for me IMO. 
Resolution: 45.7 megapixels of effective resolution. 45.4 MP files rich in detail. CMOS backlit sensor in full Nikon FX format and without low-pass optical filter. Speeds: 7 fps or 9 fps when using the optional MB-D18 multi-power battery pack (with the EN-EL18B battery inserted). ISO Sensitivity in Light: The powerful Nikon EXPEED 5 image processor delivers outstandingly sharp images in the ISO 64-25.600 range, expandable from 32 to 102.400 ISO (equivalent). The full ISO range is also available for 4K video shooting. Accuracy: The same phenomenal 153-point Autofocus system of the Nikon D5 top range provides sensitivity up to -4EV at the center point (ISO 100, 20 ° C). Exposure measurement up to -3EV allows precise exposure even under conditions where the only source of light is lunar. 4K video with no clipping factor: Record full-size movies at 4K / UHD at 30p, without clipping factor limitations. Snap for over three hours using the MB-D18 multi-power battery pack. Accelerated time-lapse movies in 4K directly "on the camera" but not only: in addition, the Nikon D850 uses its 45.7 megapixels to create fast and spectacular 8K post-production movies. RAW format flexibility: Snaps into 45.4 MP RAW format (large size), 25.6 MP (average size), or 11.4 MP (small size). In every room: thanks to its rugged body and ready to handle all weather conditions, the Nikon D850 is ready to resume in any kind of extreme environment. The same full-blinking light on the Nikon D5 guarantees ease of use even in the middle of the night. Quick Store: The two-card slot drive allows you to use a SD UHS-II and an XQD for quick file save. |

lol, B&H just called me at the office, said they had a big mistake, and weren't supposed to do pre-orders until tomorrow.
They apologized, and said they were leaving the order as is with no changes at the moment, but they would let me know tomorrow if there were going to be any issues. i guess that means they are leaving a little wiggle room for pricing issues, but i'm pretty comfortable that they will have it up at the same price from our conversation. |
