Nikon D850

Nikon today announced the D850, the successor for the D810.

  • 45.7 Megapixel BSI sensor without low pass filter
  • Three raw modes delivering 45.7 MP, 25.6 MP or 11.4 MP
  • Quite fast 7 fps with AF or 9 fps with the battery grip
  • The excellent 153 point autofocus system from the flagship camera D5 (99 cross-type sensors), providing 30% wider coverage than the D810
  • The largest optical viewfinder on any Nikon DSLR (0.75x)
  • ISO 64 to 25,600 (with boost 32 to 102,400)
  • 4k video at 24/30 fps, Full HD 1080p at up to 120 fps
  • 8k time lapse
  • Finally focus peaking (1080p-only) and zebra stripes, uncompressed 4:2:2 8-bit 4K HDMI output and microphone/headphone inputs
  • Finally illuminated buttons like the D5
  • Redesigned shutter and mirror mechanism to better handle shutter shock
  • Tilting 3.2″ 2.36M dot touchscreen
  • Dual card slots (XQD and SD)
  • Snapbridge to connect to a mobile app (but it will transfer 46 MP file over bluetooth, probably not a good idea)
  • Weather sealed magnesium alloy body

Available in September for a MSRP of $3,299.95 or EUR 3.800

Seems like a very capable camera and probably offers the quality of the Fujifilm GFX 50S combined with the autofocus performance of the Nikon flagship D5.
