Quick Specs run down:
Resolution: 45.7 megapixels of effective resolution. 45.4 MP files rich in detail. CMOS backlit sensor in full Nikon FX format and without low-pass optical filter.
Speeds: 7 fps or 9 fps when using the optional MB-D18 multi-power battery pack (with the EN-EL18B battery inserted).
ISO Sensitivity in Light: The powerful Nikon EXPEED 5 image processor delivers outstandingly sharp images in the ISO 64-25.600 range, expandable from 32 to 102.400 ISO (equivalent). The full ISO range is also available for 4K video shooting.
Accuracy: The same phenomenal 153-point Autofocus system of the Nikon D5 top range provides sensitivity up to -4EV at the center point (ISO 100, 20 ° C). Exposure measurement up to -3EV allows precise exposure even under conditions where the only source of light is lunar.
4K video with no clipping factor: Record full-size movies at 4K / UHD at 30p, without clipping factor limitations. Snap for over three hours using the MB-D18 multi-power battery pack.
Accelerated time-lapse movies in 4K directly "on the camera" but not only: in addition, the Nikon D850 uses its 45.7 megapixels to create fast and spectacular 8K post-production movies.
RAW format flexibility: Snaps into 45.4 MP RAW format (large size), 25.6 MP (average size), or 11.4 MP (small size).
In every room: thanks to its rugged body and ready to handle all weather conditions, the Nikon D850 is ready to resume in any kind of extreme environment. The same full-blinking light on the Nikon D5 guarantees ease of use even in the middle of the night.
Quick Store: The two-card slot drive allows you to use a SD UHS-II and an XQD for quick file save.

After years of eating dust behind almost all other camera manufacturers they are at least trying.
So h.264, no 4K at 60 fps. Who really cares that it can do 8K photo blend to a movie. ISO over 6,000 is not needed for anything that I would care to shoot. I guess if you are doing spy or private detective work shooting a cheating spouse.
7 or 9 fps only if using optional battery pack.
At this time no one really knows. A few bloggers are stabbing but they make money blogging and not giving valid accurate non-biased reviews. It's a new camera that they are trying to catchup with technology that has already been used by others. Nothing special I can see unless you have a bunch of Nikon glass and looking to upgrade from several version of bodies back.
Not being negative, just not excited at anything new or exciing and some areas are still lacking on a pro level camera.
