Nikon D700 Digital SLR Camera
 The first Nikon FX-format camera, the D3, produced a quantum
leap in digital photography that forever changed the way
professionals are able to work. Now, with the launch of the
second Nikon FX-format camera — the Nikon D700 — you
can achieve, in a smaller, lighter design, many of those same
extraordinary imaging feats that made the Nikon D3 an immediate
legend.
The D700 transcends the expectations of
the world's leading photographers, in an agile body developed
from the award-winning DX-format D300. In soft, subtle lighting,
it captures seductively smooth tones with astonishingly rendered
detail — easily. In low-lit situations, it delivers virtually noisefree
images for impeccable results at up to ISO 6400 — easily.
And if you’re faced with constantly changing lighting conditions,
the D700 handles these complex exposure changes with ISO
sensitivity auto control — easily.
When your day is long and
demanding and you need to travel light, you’ll appreciate this
camera’s portability, responsiveness and finely balanced handling.
And when you need more speed to capture a crucial moment,
the D700 delivers with the option of a multi-power battery pack (EN-EL4/4a and AA-size batteries)
which gives you up to 8 frames per second continuous shooting.
Whether your subject’s fast, slow or still, you’ll capture it with
tack-sharp precision using Nikon’s exclusive 51-point AF system
— easily. Every aspect of the D700 has been carefully engineered,
to provide you with the freedom to work efficiently and with the
utmost sensitivity, as a natural extension of your personal vision.
The D700 achieves a remarkable distillation of the finest imaging
performance digital photography can offer.

"I have a D300 and I love it. But the D700 is a full frame sensor. Bigger sensor for the same number of MP= more light captured = better photos for the same skill level. So yes the D700 is better. You can plug it in with the cable and download to windows and it comes with View NX."

"The Nikon D700 is an extraordinary dSLR!"

"The D700 is a camera that will get the attention of alot of people who were contemplating going for the more expensive D3. I think this camera is a better fit for most. Everything we admired in the D3 is there, but the D700 is brand new off the assembly line and half the price. Go for it!!!"
