First look video: Nikon D850
60 comments
The Nikon D850 looks to be an excellent upgrade over its predecessor, the D810. The resolution has jumped from 36.3MP to 45.7MP, the burst rate has jumped from 5 to 7 fps (9 fps with the right accessories), and the entire AF system has been yanked directly from the flagship D5. Not to mention the D850’s full sensor width 4K video, a first for a Nikon DSLR.
That's just a little bit of what the D850 has up its sleeve. Watch the video to find out more.
