Absolutely correct, however when you have 1000+ shots of a wedding to adjust things are not that rosy, having a good photo straight out of the camera is ways better, now you understand why the dress is a nightmare ?

Recently  

I stopped adjusting all the images, I let the couple chose the pictures they want to print and I do adjustments only on the pictures they want to print in large size (usually 30X45cm)

 

Is it not possible to copy and paste settings to multiple selections of photos in LR?

 

Oh, and btw. you were asking about the D850 if It can recover highlights? Of course it can and I'm very sure it does a better job here than any Canon currently available - although my believe is no scientific proof ^_^ . There's also an exposure mode to expose for the highlights - could be handy unless you're not taking pictures in scences with lots of artificial light (bulbs). Highlight recovery within 3 stops usually is no problem.

 

Enjoy your 7D II anyway.
