Psh. It only has a 100 rating. The Red Epic Dragon has 101.

Are you serious? I just ordered a D850 from Jimmie Jonhs! Probably too ... Wait, I have to get the door.

Ah, yup. too late. D850 already here.

It does imply low light performance took a tiny hit

Send it back, quick! Reject delivery. It's a pox on your house.

yes, it did, not a huge deal, overall amazing!
Always have my D750 if I need a low light beast

The hit (at least going by dxo) is tiny, and I'm sure when resized to even 36mp it probably matches or exceeds its predecessor. I only mentioned it as I think initially it was claimed to be one stop better than the d810 (not sure if that was an official Nikon claim)

Don't get me wrong, I'd love one of these things
