If I want to look cool I bring my M6 with 1.0 NoctiIf I want to look cool, I bring the F6, and while the others chimp, I change film. F6 plus D700 was actually a pretty nice combo, and since a low mileage D700 is much cheaper than any D8xx new or used, maybe...
Haha this is true.FACT: NO photographer ever looks "cool" ... Except maybe to other photographers :grin:

Hi,
If the D850 does not have that rumoured hybrid EFV/OVF I am afraid I loose interest more or less completely. FF 4k is nice and actually should have been there from the beginning of 4k in any camera, BUT without integrated EVF this is absolutely unusable. I know many will disagree, but this is my honest opinion.Hi,
More speculative information from NR: https://nikonrumors.com/2017/07/27/...-4k-uhd-video-in-fx-format-with-no-crop.aspx/
To underscore: the D850 will be on display at the Photo+ Expo in October
If that is the timeline they are working with, I am concerned that it will be too little too late. By the end of the year, Sony is likely to announce a new hight megapixel mirrorless camera, with the last generation technology. The Nikon will be set to irrelevancy for new buyers. We Nikon users, with an investment on lenses will be set to decide if we should jump ship, or if we should stay with Nikon.
Best regards
I feel the exact opposite – having used EVF-fitted cameras from both Leica (Digilux 2) and Olympus (Pen F) I can see no advantage in having one, hybrid or otherwise, and a number of disadvantages.If the D850 does not have that rumoured hybrid EFV/OVF I am afraid I loose interest more or less completely.

I agree that by the release date there will already be much more appealing high res camera options by other vendors. Especially if someone is no longer invested in Nikkor glass, these other options ARE then the better solution.
Of course, Sony is on record stating they will keep their latest image sensor technology for themselves.To underscore: the D850 will be on display at the Photo+ Expo in October

And we love you for that. If it weren't for people like you we cowards will never be able to but new toys. What will it be of all that people with GAS?Yeah, I want one. :ROTFL:
And will likely be a rather early-ish adopter. Again. : loco:
You allude to a good point. What Nikkor lenses will resolve discretely enough for the expected sensor? I question if the latest round of Nikkor glass will be OK. If do, for how many more density upgrades of sensor pixels will the "latest and greatest" be fine?This body is going to cost less than a Phase One Blue Ring lens.

Exactly Doug.This body is going to cost less than a Phase One Blue Ring lens.
How well is the medium format allure going to hold up to this camera? Certainly the Nikon is more versatile but a bit less resolution. I think it would make good prints up to about 30x45
