The Nikon D700 SLR Digital Camera brings professional imaging with a full frame image sensor to a lightweight yet durable camera body. It features the exclusive 12.1 Megapixel FX-format CMOS sensor, measuring 23.9 x 36mm, which is nearly identical to the size of a 35mm film frame - thereby eliminating any significant crop factor or focal length multiplier. Images taken with the D700 exhibit exceptional overall quality, broad tonal range and depth, along with extremely low-noise throughout its expansive ISO range of 200 to 6400. Nikon's exclusive EXPEED Image Processing System is central to driving the speed and processing power needed for many of the camera's features; such as the 51-point auto focus system and speedy 5 fps frame advance, and the camera incorporates many of the features that have made point-and-shoot digital cameras so popular - such as Live View, Auto ISO, and in-camera image enhancement. The D700 has been designed with refined ergonomics and usability and a streamlined, aesthetically pleasing layout so photographers can take pictures with greater accuracy and comfort and with less concern about fatigue. The camera's bright viewfinder provides virtually 100 percent coverage for accurate framing, while an ultra-high definition, 920,000-dot VGA LCD screen on the rear of the camera displays images with vivid color and clarity. The 170-degree wide viewing angle makes composing shots using the LCD screen in LiveView mode easy, and the camera also features a unique Virtual Horizon digital level sensor that indicates the camera's alignment relative to the true horizon on the rear LCD screen or in the viewfinder. The cameras impressive durability means that it can be used under the most demanding conditions. The exterior of the D700 is crafted of magnesium alloy and the camera's shutter mechanism is tested to 150,000 release cycles. Furthermore, the comprehensive array of rubber gaskets and seals protect vulnerable entry points from dust and moisture. If for some reason dust were to make its way into the camera (most probably when changing lenses), the Image Sensor Cleaning function employs piezoelectric elements to generate vibrations at four specific frequencies to optimize dust removal. minimize

D700 has clean ISO at 6400

Strengths:

High ISO with clear picture and no noise

Weaknesses:

A little big

Posted 1 year ago - But small compared to the D3. A real gem for indoor work. You can get 1/500 or 1/1000 at 2.8 at 200mm. Nice clear viewfinder. Will use all lenses made by Nikon since the 70's.

This is comparable to N90s digital replacement

Strengths:

FX(fullframe/no lens magnifying factor), High usable ISO till 6400, low noise, good frame rate,

Weaknesses:

Flash exposure issues with flash, shutter, aperture setting. Color setting is too contrasty. Awkward combination of LCD, push buttons and dial controls(I don't like the layout)

Posted 1 year ago - After having used F4 shooting film for so long holding D700 seemed like it would work, but so far it's been a struggle. My SB25 flash got stuck, the exposure was rarely what I wanted, and hard to correct. It seems like there's more options, but none of them are of much use. The button lay out makes me hold the camera in a weird way(eg, the AE lock makes me stretch out my thumb way too far to hold the camera steady.) Exposure issues: Incorrect colors(too punchy/too contrasty ), problem with shutter & flash control(can't seem to set the shutter to descent speed to keep the background exposed to give good ambiance), I'm using the D lens and it takes a while to focus. F4 was much faster, and the view finder was brighter, and easier to see for manual focusing. So far the D700 promised a lot of high end features, but seems to fail on delivering the basic stuff that I rely on so much. The best thing about this product so far is that it's giving me the use of my full line of non-DX lens. I've got to take this to work in a couple of days, and it's making me a bit concerned, wish me luck!
