Get the Picture? Jul 27, 2010
This is an excellent, high caliber camera. It's as simple as that.
Many people who have used and/or owned the D300, which is also an excellent camera feel that this is a step up. Eagles and falcons - two very different things. The D300 and the D700 work well together, like an eagle and eaglet. The D300 has low noise issues and the D700 has the clearer images and wide angle feature working in its favor. Both cameras are 12MP. The D700 is an FX sensor, which is a full frame whereas the D300 is DX. If you want to shoot pictures without using the flash in low light, you can do so with the 1.4 lens at 1600 ISO! You can also count on getting good close ups and good portraits as well.
If you are serious about shooting wide angle, then you want this camera. Compatible lenses are also an issue and you can spend up to $5000.00 for acoutrements, such as lenses for this camera. Since lenses tend to be more durable than the camera overall, they can be costly.
You can get away with 2 DX lenses for the D300. One drawback the D300 has is a possible tendency to overexposure. The D700 is a definite upgrade with regard to picture quality and versatility. Again, you will want to buy DX lenses. If you decide to go with the D700, make sure you have back up memory cards as added insurance. You can use the D300 as well as the D700 to write images on more than one card. The one thing this camera doesn't have is a video component. Another point in the D700's favor is that the D700 has a much better battery. If you get Portrait Expo Discs, you can count on shooting some very nice portraits.

Great camera but beware of FX lenses Jul 22, 2010
I've owned Nikon D40, D40x, D80, D300 and now D700. Also Canon XSI, 20D, 30D, and 40D. I've owned D300 for 2 years and I thought D300 was the most amazing and perfect camera in the world. However, I kept wondering re: D700 and I know several people that swear by it. I sold my D300, D80 and Canon 30D with a bunch of lenses, and purchased D700 and D40 (for backup.)
I've had D700 for a month. The learning curve from D300 is almost zero, if you know how to use D300 this is almost the same.
The question is was it worth to upgrade from already-amazing D300. It depends.
My D300 was an amazing piece of machinery. I've been very happy with high iso photos of D300. I've taken very good photos in low light with it up to ISO5000 and above. So in general I was satisfied with its high iso performance. The lenses for DX are plenty and are easy to find. I had an amazing Sigma 17-70 2.8-4.5 which is super sharp. There is no equivalent in length and price FX lens. Tamron 17-50 2.8 is another affordable DX lens. In FX you have to go to Tamron 28-75 and 17-50 for DX is wider. There are more affordable choices in DX land than there are in FX land.
D700 has even better high iso, slightly larger viewfinder (I expected a larger difference between that viewfinder and that on D300). And FX of course means that my 180mm 2.8 Nikkor is 180mm, not 270mm and I don't have to walk back 100 feet to take a portrait shot.
Bottom line both D700 and D300 are great cameras, and you should be happy with either. For the price of D700 body you can get a used copy of D300/D300s with Nikkor 17-55 F/2.8 which should be something to consider. If you can afford FX lenses then do research on FX lenses first and see if there are lenses available in the range you will be shooting....

Best Camera Ever Jun 26, 2010
I compared this cameral to the canon 50D Even though the canon has 15mp and this has 12 it blew it away.
The clairity and color was literaly 10 times better.
Bigger CMOS and better lense that is FX format not dx nikon.
Basicly you get what you pay for.
I was sick of pictures looking out of focus or just grainy. Even thogh the
50D is high in picksils it did not show. Even though the difference is by a few Maga Pics your eye just catches it. you know there is something off.

Wow. Jun 16, 2010
Upgraded from a D90 and the improvements are remarkable. Shot a dance recital the other day in low light using ISO 6400 and they looked great. NEVER could've pulled that off with the D90. Autofocus speed and accuracy is great. Extremely comfortable to hold. Gorgeous viewfinder. Highly, HIGHLY recommended.

D700: Wonderful dynamic range Jun 06, 2010
Going from a Nikon D2x to a D700, I'm very happy with the improvement in dynamic range. Details from shadows and highlights can be recovered from RAW files to an extent not possible with the D2x. Also, nose levels at high ISO settings are much lower. This opens up possibilities of shooting in circumstances not workable with the D2x.
I also like the ability to assign functions to various buttons on the D700. For shooting landscapes, it is great to have the level indicator at the touch of a button, and to initiate a bracketing sequence with a different button. Several of the buttons I didn't use on the D2x are not used frequently.
This is a great camera for the serious amateur, or backup for the professional.
