I was very surprised about the Nikon being a bit more pricey than the Sigma.
That bit about the AF adjustment came from some "insect hunting" shots when LV was no option and manual focus too slow. In all test rows of Sigma lenses I had a different value for close up then for far away distances. One can argue, Sigma should do a better job, but I see some backfocus also on Nikon lenses.
Focus bracketing will be easier with your new D850 (focus stacking without stacking) and a lot quicker.
Besides, yesterday evening I connected the D850 to Capture One (11 beta) and I saw not only the normal camera settings but also the ones in the menus. I even could rename the names of my bank settings - and change them. Very cool.
