Built in Wi-Fi and an additional function button but otherwise very familiar to D4 and D5 users, I'd probably need a mortgage to buy one.

Good tool for the pro's but you need to be making good money to justify the cost of buying one.

I see the premium for a D6 over a D5 is around £1,000. For the price of a D6 I could happily buy four D500s and I think that is exactly what I would buy if I could afford a D6, well two of them anyway. As far as I am concerned the cost of the D6 is well beyond justification for n amateur. I would like a D5 but they are still nearly £4,000 used, I paid less for three bodies (D3, 2 x D4) and I don't see any upgrades any time soon.

Since the D3S the single digit D series have provided me with little interest. I know that they are meant to be solid and dependable but there has been little innovation. The D850 is IMHO a much better camera that any other D camera closely followed by the D500 and D750/D780. To a large extent I think Nikon have lost the plot. The Z series cameras are interesting and great to use but not outstanding.

The D850 is IMHO a much better camera that any other D camera closely followed by the D500 and D750/D780. The extra 4MP of the D4 is a worthwhile upgrade but the stretch to the D5 doesn't make any sense to me, the D6 appears to add more video capabilities, in which I have no interest. The D500 is looking more attractive by the day but I'll stick with the D4 bodies for now. In a few years time things may be different. Obviously if the D500 comes down in price, used that is, to something I can afford I might go that way. I see the D6 in much the same way as the F6, a last gasp on the way to a new range. I think a professional level mirrorless must be waiting in the wings. Built in grip, bigger battery (think EN-EL4 or 18 size) multiple card slots etc. I started using Nikon pro bodies with the F4, I suspect the D4 may be the last of them for me. Yes I agree Nikon have lost their way.

If the D500 was 25MP or 30MP it would be a real winner. However they would need to improve the noise and dynamic range as well to really satisfy me. Currently the D850 has in excess of 10-11stops of range (some people report 11.5, 12, 13.5 stops but I dont find this in real life use) and that is just fine as I can work with that. Would be interested if Eric or Graham could check and confirm this for me.

An inherently low contrast lens will enable a wider discernible dynamic range. Conversely a contrasty lens will clip the range.
