Nikon announces their D850 development program

Nikon has officially announced their plans for the upcoming D850 DSLR . The camera , which wasn't officially announced ,was however released as a press article with focus on "teaser" features including the ability for super - low light image capture and 8K timelapse .

The announcement which comes in a time when Nikon is celebrating its 100th anniversary probably hints that the D850 will be a beast of a camera once announced . we expect the camera to feature a ~42MP sensor with the ability to shoot 4K and 8K timelapse .this is a major update over the D810 , but we are yet to see performance gains .

Overall the D850 , when announced will surely shake up the Nikon vs Canon feud ,but with recent developments happening on the other side of the fence , its high time Nikon gives us some info on that super secret Mirrorless camera they are working on as well .
