- I've been busy testing out the video features of the Nikon D850
More info on my site ➡ wp.me/p8IV72-4zg
⬇️Links below⬇️
Some of the features I've tested on the Nikon D850 DSLR is the 4K video. Also the 1080p HD mode specially in slow motion at 120 fps. I also tested the image stabilization, auto-focus and low light capabilities. Overall, it's a good video camera, and an amazing still photography camera.
Here is where you can get the camera:

Here is my test films shot on the Nikon D850 in HD 120fps ua-cam.com/video/mb-yFxATlFU/v-deo.html
Great video Tom, thanks for posting. Do you have any recommended settings to shoot with regarding the Flat profile setting?
You forgot to mention the most important thing for videographers. It's the first 4k (UHD) DSLR with a Full-Frame 1.0x Crop Factor. This means a 50mm is a 50mm. As opposed to Canons 5D Mark IV which has a crop factor of 1.64x when shooting in 4k.
sony a7 class has that already
Mirror Camera
canon 5d iv has the crop factor of 1.74x actually, not 1.64x, but yeah why didn't he mention that d850 is the first 4k DSLR which is full-frame, that's a tie-breaker and advantages
Thanks for doing this, its been hard to get a clear review from a viedeo perspective for this camera
I know... i was looking for more info about the video capabilities of this camera but couldn't find any good info so finally decided to test it out myself.
Hi Tom, 5 years later I finally got back to photography again and also 5 years after you made this review, I got hold of a used D850 to upgrade from my D700(and D7100). Nice video and as an photography first person, I really like the extra bonus that my camera is able to do some video just fine. Must say that and also as you mentioned the video quality in it's own is of good quality as long as you ain't doing anything fancy.
My dream photo camera ...thanks for the review tom 👏🏾
Thank you for posting this. Im probably one of the few people on the planet that switched from Sony to Nikon for the reasons you mentioned. The D850 is all around great camera that has pretty much the same IQ from 64-1600 iso which is the sweet spot for me.
Regarding profiles, I went to NikonPC.com and downloaded “AlvaroYus-Curve” which is flatter than the default flaat profile (but not as flat as log). They have others that emulate fuji and kodak film profiles that are great for in camera results that dont require much edit in post. I find the nikon color profiles easier to grade than 8 bit 4:2:0 log which goes south rather quickly if you push it too hard.
You can also use Capture NX-d to create your own custom profiles based on your own images. One could scout a location, take stills, then and create a custom color profile for a future video shoot.
Thanks for reading
but that damn live view autofocus
Thanks for the great, in-depth review.
I did not upgrade to a D850 from my D810 but am seriously considering a Z7. I just watched this review again and if the preliminary reports are correct, the Z7 will have almost all of the D850 still features and will have resolved the shortcomings this camera had for video. It’d be great if you could get your hands on a Z7 and give us your opinion.
Please don’t leave it without lens or cap like that.It’s making me nervous 😬
Same!
I own this camera as my stills Camera and although I would always jump on my GH5 for video it’s really handy to have strong video features in your stills camera.
Good overview Tom. It looks an epic camera for stills & the video looks decent but the features are bit limited compared to Panasonic for example. I hope Nikon release a killer FX and/or DX mirrorless camera with a vari-angle touchscreen, fast, accurate AF system, fast burst rate and dual SD card slots plus 4K video, especially since Sony have just announced the A7iii which looks pretty decent.
Very pleasant voice and narration. Thank you for the overview.
Great video. For video. I noticed you recored moving shots, you even used a gimbal. Please tell me how you accomplish this with the D850????? Are you doing manual focus by moving the lens ring? Please tell me how this is accomplished with the D850?
I always thought that nikon d850 was very bad for videos... Before watching this! thank you for your interesting review
Ugh. I keep going back and forth between D850 and Sony A7 iii. Such a hard decision. I’m already in the Nikon ecosystem, but REALLY want a great video camera.
Brent Strawhacker watch Taylor Jackson on why he returned his A73 (he shoots with a D850)
Link please?
New Subscriber A Nikon's Fav... Videographer For Nikon
im glad im not the only dude that loves the low iso s 😀😀
Cool and unexpected to see Monocacy Park in the video at 6:16!
thank you for the tips, so how is it possible to produce a video with moving people back and forth and all being in focus?
Manual focus and lots of practice
@@TomAntos thanks for the quick reply but how is manual focus possible when you are holding the camera how do you do that when on tripod? or lets say shooting an event with lots of people?
i am super dissapointed in this auto focus for video feature .. after spending ao much on this new switch from canon to nikon
@@MilaThomps I can't believe Nikon hasn't released an autofocus in video mode firmware update after all these years.
Thanks! Good tutorial! I do love my D850, for stills (mainly) and video. And agree with you, hoping for a firmware update for the features it misses ...
I bought a used D800 becuase I'm just starting out with DSLRs and I'm kind of tired of Apple and their "the iPhone is the only camera you need bullshit....". I have a 70-200 f2.8 sigma the Nikon 14-24 and a Nikon 50mm 1.8. LOVE IT. If I had the budget I'd get the D850, however.. I think I need to master the D800 first to deserve an upgrade. Grate video!
11:06 that is some damn sexy afternoon scenery !
Hi Tom, thank you for such a detailed review, what dslr camera you recommend for video shooting? Thanks
HI Tom, thanks for posting this. Two questions - 1/ does the D850 have auto-ISO in both 1080 and 4k video modes? and 2/ How is the internal audio recording? The D800/810 internal amps were horribly noisy... Thanks in advance. ATB, Paul
1. Yes. 2 That's normal in every camera. Buy a external microphone.
Thanks a lot, now I can't stand up for a while. I just can't wait for my D850 that I have ordered at my favorite camera store "B&H". A guy just left my house with my D810 so I'll have to make do with my D500 and Fujifilm X-T2.
If you had homeowners insurance you could have recovered most, if not all, of the cost of the D850.
Use video stabilizers for smooth videos.
Hey I loved this video. So would the Nikon z7 be the best of both worlds? Would those video features that was lacking in the d850 be in the z7? If not, what camera would you recommend?
Thank you very much. Excellent tutorial.
Great review :) is there a possibility in flat filming to add extra saturation or contrast to the screen? ( so you dont end up setting white balance and looking for focus in a flat image ). Also, can you record video on both cards at the same time?
Thank you!
Hi Tom. Thanks for your video. I'm wondering what tripod you have. I'm looking for something I can use with the d850 and a 200-500m lens with pan and tilt, level and I liked the handle you have at the back.
love the nlkon d850 had mlne for a few months my favorite feature ls the 1080p 120 fps lt looks so good lf you know why your dolng and to be able to play lt back ln camera ls worth the money for me plus you got great looking 4k to and on photography slde this camera takes the best looking photos lve seen so l think this camera ls the best all around dslr l only wlsh the video focusing was bette and and camera ls a halr to blg not for people with small hands l got medluem sloe hands and lt just barly flts ln my hand
Thanks for the video. I was wondering what software you use to edit?
On the B&H website, it says, "...video files can be saved to the in-camera memory cards or as an uncompressed file to an optional external recorder via HDMI out." If this is not N-Log, then what format is it?
Love your videos tom...ive had my d850 for few months and i really love it im a pro photographer and videographer and have shot video with my 850 but i dont realy like it. Its great for utube but when you go to bd its kinda of choppy and stabelization is not that good. But for photos i love it
You can fix the stabilization on premiere pro.
Use a hand or chest video stabilizer?
Can you please tell me how you focus in video with the D850? Are you manually moving the lens focus ring the whole time????
You definitely should use a prime when mounted on a stabilizer, not a zoom. Your legs are the zoom! The rig will be much more manageable.
Hey Tom , great channel , amazing videos , i am always learning from here .
I am amateur filmmaker from Japan /Tokyo and if you have a little time for me i would like to ask something ;D
I watched a lot of footages of many cameras , top ones for filmmakers in the middle range /pro consumer , Canon , Nikon , Panasonic GH5 , Sony A6500 ,Sony A7Rll, FujiFIlm Xt-20 and others ...
Can i ask why DSLR looking are so different of Mirrorless cameras ? Is like DSLR look more organic Tones ...more like "Film" style , i Know are all are digital cameras, digital sensor but even the same Focal length and exposure DSLR and Mirrorless look kind " different " perpective of the subject in the frame ... i know about the crop factor in cameras or super 35mm mode is not thisi am talking about.
I make my videos in a Nikon 7500 in for 4k and my friend have a Sony A6300 , we compared the same focal length at same exposure and i know how sony 4k have so much more details but nikon have a more " Organic " feel /colors to video .
I was wondering why this ... and wanna hear for a pro like you about this , 4k DSLR vs 4k Mirrorless
By the way thanks for your time ;D Cheers !!
Which gimbal works best on Nikon D850 ? Can I use D850 for filmmaking or pre wedding videos?
Xr 4000
Hi Tom,
I realy like your videos.
What other 4K camera or cameras would you advise in the same price range for video purposes?
And which lens brand has the better price vs quality ratio?
I'm interested in this question too
Hi Tom, greetings of the day. Could you please tell me your opinions on Nikon D850 video autofocus? Can the camera track faces smoothly in video shooting mode?
Hey bro, do you have any used camera for sale?
Hi Tom, I'd like to know what are the other DSLR options that can shoot good video and take great pictures around the same price range?
Sorri brother.... throughout Video couple of times I saw
"Nikon Brand Name"....so what is the wrong? And I didn't saw dat it is D850....
Model .... so again what is d wrong??? Why hiding brand & model name, when Ur talking about so much
Of it.... sounds funny for me.....Pls.... understand and proudly u hv to SHOW d Great All Round Model till date..... as a Master piece.....thank you....
Why is there always limitations for 4k on lot of brands except like Sony ..when you spend over 2k on a camera you expect not a single limitation consider even cellphones don't have limitations even in 4k. Tho the mirrorless cameras don't seem to have too many limitations like the Nikon Z lines
The flat picture profile does look nice. It seemed like you were implying though that you couldn't add additional picture profiles? Did I misunderstand you? starting at 15:48 you said there was no log or even customizing further the three profiles that it comes with. So does that mean you can't use the Nikon Picture Control Utility for creating / importing different profiles???
I think he missed that part, you can normally have custom picture profile if you want. There are some people that have done log type profile for Nikon's. In fact you can dig a little bit more in the shadows generally in Nikon's.
I wish they would introduce 25 ISO option for shooting with flash outside or video shooting on bright days.
Why not? I used to shoot with Kodak Ektar 25 film,back in 1990's.
Thanks for the video update of D850. I want to purchase a camera which I shall be using for Video and Photograph. Please suggest between 5DM4, D850 or any other option that can be considered. Good day
ashwani baweja If you are primarily doing video then a Panasonic GH5/GH5s or Sony a7iii/a7sii will most likely being your top options to consider.
TOM, ...IS THERE a Crop in 4K? Thank Youuu :-)
I want to see how this stacks against the ursa mini 4.6k. Shit codec sure, but a better sensor for sure.
Can u do a video on anamorphic lens under $300 like moondog labs x Beastgrip x Ironglass Adapters. Etc.
why does your 2000 iso look less noisy than my 1600 iso?
Why not just have a separate dedicated 4k camcorder?
Canon 5d mark 4 for video...Purpose...Nikon is good for stills. ..
Does it still suffer the oil on the sensor problem?
Firstly thank you.
How much memory it will consume if we record in 4k..as canon eats 64 gb card in just 16 min
Hey, I have a question...
What do you suggest; Nikon d850 or Gh5 and why...
(I do photography, videography, and i use slow motion a lot)
There is a UA-cam video that does that exact comparison.
what about if you use it with a shogun flame recorder?
I want a 120 fps not poxy 30 where you get blurred images or video.
Que máquina maravilhosa, estava vendo vídeos sobre ela e acabei vendo seu canal, não entendi nada do que você fala, porque não sei entendi inglês. Essa câmera é perfeita, incrível quando você testou o iso nos veados totalmente no escuro e o iso poderoso dela fez com que desse para ver eles. Os vídeos em câmera lenta é maravilhoso ❤️, é espetacular, parece mágico. Eu tinha uma câmera, mas nem de longe chega perto dessa máquina maravilhosa, infelizmente tive que vender pra pagar dívidas, mas se eu for comprar um dia uma camera, vou com certeza querer essa, vai demorar pra eu comprar, mas um dia consigo. Parabéns pelo vídeo, foi inspirador ver você falando dessa câmera, quando a gente gosta de algo, falamos com amor.
Hi Guys, i have a D7100 for stills and some pretty good lenses. I would like to ask this forum on your opinions. I would like to make safety videos for my work. It will involve moving subjects. Question: Should i invest in another format camera (Canon) more suited for video or move to 850 and save some money on lenses? Any response will be helpful. TYIA
Jeff Nordstrand the Panasonic gh5 has good rolling shutter performance
Antos you are forgetting hdmi out in 4k.
Will Nikon ever come with decent video attributes????
Nikon or canon?
Do you think canon is better because of the dual pixel AF
Sol Shalem for video definitely yes. Canon has way better faster n more accurate video AF but for photos it's not as big of a difference.
What other cameras do you prefer for video mainly and some pro photography as well?
Dont do that much pro photography so can't honestly say. But my fave rightnow photo and video camera is sony a6600 and Sony a7iii
For the price of £2500 or $ 2500 what's the best video camera to buy? I get fed up with taking stills I'm more into movies now with more stops of light.

Search for answers on UA-cam videos as I have done.
@ 3:07 "when you are getting a selfie..."
This is a Nikon D850, not an iPhone.
drk321 people use the canon Eos 1dx II for vlogging... probably what he meant lol
Which tripod at 10:21? Please
Nikon d850 Vs Sony a7iii ? Which is better.
abhishek thorat better for what
Thanks for this vidéo, this must be a good camera because NASA had bought a lot of them...
If video is your thing wouldn't you go for a video camera like Sony's ax series or Canon's G series...or black magic? Just trying to understand everyone's fixation of getting video from stills cameras. What don't I know that everyone else seems to know.
Joe Cerda very often I'm asked to do both - plus I travel so don't want a cinema camera and photography camera
Joe Cerda з/0)))//00,.,
OMG, they removed the ability to add additional profiles for video?! That's a non-starter then, since I was able to add CineFlat for Nikon cameras when I shot 4K with the D500 and the extra latitude it added beyond flat was fabulous! If you can't do this on the D850 that is a HUGE loss. :/
Actually I am not sure if you can add other profiles. I didn't try that out... but the camera only has those 3 settings. Sorry for not trying to import other profiles, completely slipped my mind.
yes you can you can create your own lut profiles
What video camera are you most impressed by?
The primary purpose will be video
1080...p come on were in 4k land nikon. I will go else where.
If you have small hands you have much bigger (smaller) problems!!
Why you talikng about the d850 when the a7 III realse?
Alright let's stop the world from talking about any other cameras because of the a7iii!!!!! All hail the a7iii... or how about we wait till we actually have a chance of using the a7iii in the real world and have real experience with that camera?
Tom Antos thank you for all of your Videos but this is an old camera, maybe a comparsion about d850 and a7 III
Thank you. I will do videos about the a7iii and also about the a7Siii but only when I had a chance to use these cameras for a while. I really dont like to do a video talking about a camera like I am an expert when that camera has just come out a week ago. If Im going to talk about any piece of gear I want to have the chance to use it at least for a month before I feel like I can honestly tell you what I think is good and bad about a particular camera. So be weary of people who do videos about anything when the product was only been available for a few days. Most cases those videos are not honest.
Tom Antos thank you for this comment and i will wait for your Review and comparsion! I have canon lens and i will Chance my System, u hope you will also Check the lens with the Sony a7 III.
A7III is a toy in comparison. I might be interested if it was the A7S3. Someone said this is an old camera ummm it’s less than six months old I am not sure why you wouldn’t talk about it.
anxiety seeing the sensor exposed
Milan Pintar the sensor is behind the mirror, so not exposed! If it was mirror less, the sensor would be exposed!
Nobody can afford money for it lol
