[QUOTE="panos_adgr, post: 5207, member: 12"] All digital cameras function under the exactly same principal. There is a sensor a cpu with an algorithm and a final file stored in a storage media. There are though as you wrote some dedicated B&W cameras. There are also various projects of converting dslr cameras to dedicated monochrome cameras. Bellow is a link from a company that makes camera conversions. The D850 is one of the best DSLR cameras you could own anyway even today especially in the fields of dynamic range, signal to noise ratio and detail. Now concerning the comparison between dedicated monochrome cameras is a bit pointless. The monochromatic sensors differ in their design as they do not have the color 'filtering' (to put it simple) in each pixel. This results in better contrast, detail and in better spatial information. (at least this is what is mentioned in some articles and not my personal opinion.) [URL unfurl="true"]https://maxmax.com/maincamerapage/monochrome-cameras/nikon-monochrome/nikon-d850m[/URL] I also use 2 D850s and I'm very satisfied from what the camera is capable of in dynamic range, information, detail etc. Now, if you crave for contrasty, vibrant B&W images with the detail of the D850 you can create a custom Image profile using the the base 'monochrome' mode of the camera or the Nikon Picture Control Utility app, before spending money in a solely monochromatic camera.
