 An excellent tool for digital photography November 30, 2008
If you already have Nikon lenses and want a full-frame DSLR, but you aren't ready to drop almost $5k on a D3, then this is the camera for you. I have been using a D200, which now becomes my reserve, and the transition to the D700 was seamless. It feels the same except that it has a fuller viewfinder and a much nicer LCD. The results so far are indistinguishable, but only because I have not had access to a printer that can do these images justice. There is no physical reason why I did not give the D700 five stars--only its price. You need to think hard as to whether it is worth the premium over the D300 or even the still-available 200. Since every single lens I own is full-frame, it was to me. Now the images from the 10 MM end of the range on my Sigma short zoom will be REALLY wide-angle. And kudos to Nikon for maintaining their backward compatibility with their really old glass. There is hardly a lens that Nikon has made that can't be at least optically functional on this camera.
 Take the dive! You won't be sorry! November 23, 2008

Having done a lot of research on this camera and reading all of the positive reviews I knew I would be getting a quality piece of equipment. This camera has been reviewed to death so there is really nothing new I can add just to say the only thing that gave me pause was the price tag. Let me assure you that this camera exceeded every expectation I had and is worth every cent I paid for it.
There is a reason this camera has single handedly converted more Canon shooters than any other. The D700 will add a whole other level to your digital photography. Just do it, you won't be sorry.

Amazon's customer service is far superior to any of the other camera dealers. I had a problem with the first D700 and they replaced it without question. I would recommend anyone wanting to buy products from Amazon and their deliveries are excellent. Most of the other dealers charge delivery and often you can get free delivery from Amazon. I don't buy anywhere else.
thank you Amazon

Another voice in the chorus of praise. November 19, 2008

Please allow me to add my voice to the already considerable chorus of praise that this camera has received. I have been using Nikon cameras since the days of film, and have owned the D100, D70, D200 and D300. I jumped at the chance to get the D700 for two main reasons: 1), the FX sensor took away the sometimes annoying multiplication factor for focal length, and 2) the wide acclaim this camera has received for operating with very low noise at high ISOs. The FX sensor has breathed new life into my considerable investment in Nikon glass over the years, and the low noise at high ISOs is nothing short of astonishing. I really don't like to shoot with flash (and I have tried everything from built-in flashes to various SB-800s set up with the Nikon CLS system), but with this camera I have been able to shoot indoors at night with low ambient light up to 6400 ISO and produced results that put my previous Nikon DSLRs to shame, with the exception of the D300 which was reasonably good in low light, but had the DX sensor/multiplication issue. Now a 50mm 1.4 lens really IS a 50mm 1.4 lens! Of course, it's not just the sensor and the FX format, it's also about your investment in glass! Nikon Professional Lenses turn this thing into a truly professional, beautiful tool. I have managed some amazing shots with my 50mm 1.4. Even at ISOs higher than 6400, using custom profiles that I post-processed with Noise Ninja software, I have managed to achieve clean, clear shots with very little chromatic noise in the shadows. It has to be seen to be believed. At one point I considered abandoning the Nikon platform in favor of the Canon 5D after having a chance to play around with one that a friend had, and I was especially intrigued by the 5D Mark II. Of course, that would have meant abandoning my investment in Nikon glass, but I was intrigued by the results my friend was getting, and also the higher pixel count. However, there are numerous discussions on the Web and elsewhere about the value of pixel count, and the 12mpx D700 generates super high quality images that withstand considerable enlargement, perhaps due to the favorable pixel density ratio. The controls are very similar to the D300, though it feels a little heavier and sturdier. It does have a somewhat disappointing CF flash flip-open door - the only 'cheap' detail on an otherwise premium body. The rear LCD is much brighter than the D300, and the new viewfinder is bright, clear and a joy to use. I love the virtual horizon feature which displays on the rear LCD. Just as a side note: I am a creative director, and I shoot semi-professionally for some of the projects I get involved in. I was responsible for the Adobe CS1 and CS2 creative suite and individual product packaging, and some of the flowers that appear in the Adobe Illustrator CS1 packaging were shot by me with my D100, what seems like an eternity ago... So I have had to shoot a lot of different subjects in widely variable conditions, and I have no doubt that my new D700 will handle whatever I throw at it! Now that FX sensor sizes appear to be within the grasp of what I would call 'affordable' DSLRs, there is a distinct possibility that the DX format (and maybe DX lenses) may not have such a long life span. This is worth considering as camera bodies are certainly an investment, but your investment in lenses is where the real money is, and in the long run may favor non-DX formats. Hope this is helpful!

The camera has exceeded my expectations, due to work requirements I have not been able to use it as much as I want to. Also expected to take a trip, but that has been put on hold due to a medical issue. Anticipate being able to use the camera like I expected to shortly after 1 Jan 09. So far I love the camera.
