Who needs 46 Mps is probably not the primary question, as you can choose from RAW 46/25/11 Mps, the question is who wants the D850 and why?
My answer is that it's for those who don't want just a new feature here or an extra Mp there.....but actually want the lot.....and feels that this camera gives exactly that.
As JoJu remarked you buy a FF D850 and get a free Dx D500 built in under the hood, but with FF 4K video in a format that is practical, only seemingly lacking is the PD on sensor AF........ common Nikon get it on!
Nikon have shown that they "want to give the entire package" and that is the most impressive thing about the camera, like the D500 did for sports shooter.
This is a great change in "company attitude" instead of feeding us just enough to keep us hanging on the hook until the next model, (eg. headphone sockets /focus peaking and decent buffers etc.)
......it gives us the "Full Monty" right now!
There's just a little sense of "Fuji" about the situation, listening and wanting to please it's customers with no holding back, that to me is what I want from a company right now and Nikon is doing it!
In short it's Nikon's ..<i>pièce de résistance!</i>
