    First off thank you

  2. Caroline Freeman says

    I’m from America and we say Nikon or Nye Con.

  3. Caroline Freeman says

    Nikon isn’t dying. They have a D6 coming out soon.

  4. Frank Zayas says

    Hey Matt, what’s the deal with Nikon and this camera. It’s been out for a year now and I still can’t get one. Back ordered everywhere!

  5. Jake Held says

    11 Months Later, CameraBar.com still says 'Coming Soon' Pre-Order?

  6. gwen says

    so i can see nikon d850 anywhere :)))) hi nikon, chill pls. im broke af :))

  7. Akiva Bernstein says

    Did you miss focus on the pictures?

  8. john doe says

    Would love it but DSL’s are worse than cars for depreciation. Might look at one in a year or two when second hand they are a reasonable price.

  9. MNP says

    Can u do a video on setting portraiture for the d850 please 😀

  10. Frooty says

    Toglife? From world of tanks right? Haha love it!

  11. Charles Moon says

    Everybody MUSTTTT!!! read the manual.

  12. Peter Gruhn says

    I'll read the manual. There's a lot to learn in there.

  13. Steve Similien says

    This is great and all but….. hi Alexis 👋🏾

  14. TheMrBennito says

    how does the D850 perform w/o Alexis being around? 🙂 on a more serious note, the Otus lens I have seen it being used now in several reviews. Wouldn't be surprised if it does make just any camera shine…

  15. K3 says

    Моделька приятная)

  16. ColonelRuiz says

    3:29 "c'm on, who reads a manual?" . . . I did

  17. Liam Anderson says

    christ the amount of money spent on that. rediculous. i want!

  18. Dean Austin says

    Your are

  19. Ioana Radu says

    Alberto, how did you manage to have the focus shifting option activated. Mine says this option is not available with at current settings or in the current cameras's state. I am going nuts.

  20. Dean Austin says

    Youd know

  21. Junpeng Chen says

    I know is kinda useless, but can Nikon just upgrade all the screen to amoled?

  22. Michael Coode says

    I've got a d7100 love it but ld love to own this camera love your videos maybe one day

  23. Ian Brown says

    Nice unboxing and first look, great photography really shows what this camera is capable of in the right hands.

  24. Norman Isaacs says

    Hey Matt, what backgrounds did you use in the studio for this shoot?

  25. Sergio Pappalardo says

    No doubt this is the BEST VIDEO about the D850 unboxing and quick testing ever ever ever.
    Matt Granger: just the best Pro PH on YT. Always.

  26. Davy Mike says

    I shoot in roar as well :). I just cant justify spending that much money on a camera for portraits. Oh, you can print big. Seems to be the only argument. Still love my D200 for portraits.

  27. Stan says

    Nice video Matt and a Super nice looking model! I will have to relook at the video all I saw first time was the model WOW!

  28. Richard Go says

    For the testshoots……

  29. Nick McCamy says

    Imaging Resource compared the D850 with a Nikon 60mm 2.8 lens to the GFX 50s with the Fujifilm 63mm 2.8 lens.
    How would the image quality of the D850 compare to the GFX if the D850 had a Zeiss 50mm 1.4 lens? The Nikon 60mm 2.8 is good, but not against a Fujifilm lens!

  30. Angeles Photography says

    Boo, false alert. Camera Bar is backordered just everyone else.

  31. Richard Go says

    Unboxing is always soooooo boring.😒

  32. SlyJuly29 says

    " Putting through it's paces" , most overused term on Youtube.

  33. Joe Beard says

    Alexis has the most beautiful eyes, in my opinion.

  34. Michael Sillett says

    The Battery is the same as the Nikon D7100
