Nikon D700 REVIEW

Nikon D700 AWESOME!!
with a full frame sensor that offers top of class, low noise hi ISO image quality, this camera is hard to beat. to do so you will spend at least twice as much for very modest improvements in IQ by going to 20+ MP sensor. do you need that? I don't. This is a real still photographers camera. if you want video, then sure the canon eos 5d mark II will give you that with some limits, and without nearly as robust a focusing system. This camera is the camera i have been waiting for for years, and after having it in my hands for 9 months now, I havent had a single regret. awesome.

Nikon D700 PERFECT CAMERA.
This is one of Nikon's better camera and in fact I would say that it is the best in Nikons current lineup.

Integrated sensor cleaning. The D3 doesn't have it or the top of the line D3X. If you don't need more megapixels than 12 or you can't justify $8,000 for a D3x this is basically a D3 in a smaller body. Personally I'll take the ability to clean it's sensor over the more expensive D3 that can't.

FX. This is great because you get bigger photo sites which allows for greater high-ISO performance since there is more signal to noise at the pixel sites.

A feature I really like is the level in the viewfinder. OK actually you can program the function better to override the exposure indicator to act as a bubble level which is great for difficult shots in the mountains or around lakes and shorelines.

The viewfinder is another nice touch. Since it's a FX you get a big viewfinder - much bigger to look though than say a D200/D300.

The interface on the LCD is better too. You can zoom in on the pictures using the + and - button instead of holding one button and turning the command dial like a D200. This allows one handed zooming. Also the LCD itself is much improved in resolution.

Nikon D700 AMAZING!!!
I decided to buy a 2nd DSLR to go with my already-awesome D300 so I wouldn't have to keep changing lenses on the fly and to also have a full frame camera at the ready. All I can say is that Nikon definitely got this one right! Unless you want the massive amount of megapixels in the D3 or D3x, there's no reason to spend that amount of money when you can buy this beauty and the stellar 70-200mm f/2.8 lens for about the same price as the D3 body.

It's built solid (just like the D300 and D3x). It's a bit bigger than the D300, but not much. Feels good in the hands. While its not as fast as the D3, it's up there and will meet even most sports-shooting needs - especially with the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens.

While the price is certainly lower than the D3, don't let that fool you into thinking this is a sub-pro level camera. It's plenty good as a pro camera and I know pros who use it. So, if you're looking to raise your photography game and graduate to pro-level full frame without breaking the bank or if you want to invest in a few great lenses and still own a full frame, this is your baby!


Nikon D700 Best Price, FANTASIC CAMERA!!!
HAVING A D300, AND LOOKING FOR BETTER AF FOR BIRDING, AND BETTER LOW ISO CAPABILITY FOR SPORTS, I BOUGHT THE D700. I WAS ON THE FENCE, HAVING WANTED NIKON TO RELEASE A BETTER DX MODEL WITH BETTER LOW LIGHTING ISO AND AF, BUT GOT TIRED OF WAITING. BOUGHT D700, AND HAVNE'T LOOK BACK.
PICS OF D700 ARE AMAZING, WITH BETTER RESOLUTION, AND FASTER FOCUSING THAN D300, WHICH IS A GREAT CAMERA AS WELL. FPR BIRDING/SPORTS, WITH ADEQUATE LIGHT.

BUT, FOR SPORTS IN LOW LIGHT (FOOOTBALL AT NITE, ETC OR BIRDS IN FLIGHT,ETC) YOU CANNOT BEAT THE D700!!

AND FOR PORTRAITS, AND LOW LIGHTING EVENTS (CONCERTS, AND WIDE ANGLE PHOTOGRAPHY, LANDCAPES, SUNSETS), FULL FRAME IS FANTASTIC!!


Nikon D700 Best Price, Versatile full frame DSLR camera for any light condition.
Nikon D700 is the first and the only (up to now) compact full frame (FX) camera Nikon has to offers. It inherits many great features from Nikon pro-DSLR camera Nikon D3 and add some other useful features such as dust reduction and wireless flash commander.

What is special about Nikon D700?
Like its big brother Nikon D3, D700 has incredible clean image at high ISO setting, 51 AF points with several tracking modes include 3D tracking. It shoots 5 fps but can be boost to 8 fps with battery grip attached. Unlike D3, it has compact size but it is not light. It is 995 g.

Body and Handling
Nikon D700's body is similar to Nikon D300 (a crop sensor DSLR camera or DX) in many ways. But of course it has a little bit different here and there. For example. D700 is taller and wider to accommodate larger viewfinder.

D700 body feels very solid and made by magnesium alloy body. It has textured rubber in the grip area. As discussed above, the camera is quite heavy, but it helps to balance the camera especially if you mount it with heavy pro grade lenses.

Nikon D700 Best Buy, AMAZING!!!
Amazing high quality clean images. This is true not only for high ISO but even at low ISO. I shoot mostly landscape and find amazing detail and when using ISO 200 for example, the clean ISO advantage of this camera can still be seen. I just had a 32 by 21 inch print made, and it looks excellent! A perfect upgrade from my D200.
