Compare Prices for Nikon D700

I'm sure there are some D3 and D300 owners who are cursing Nikon right now for bringing out a camera that combines the best of those two cameras for a relatively reasonable price. The three cameras should pretty much cover most people's needs, though Nikon still requires a higher resolution model for some pro needs. The D700 covers a lot of bases, though, and for the most part does it very well. I have some reservations about the vignetting, and would be interested to hear how other users' lenses perform, while the sometimes slow AF is also mildly frustrating. The dust reduction is a feature I have reservations about too. However, for the most part, the Nikon D700 is a joy to use and is capable of incredible results, so I'm sure it will make some lucky people very happy indeed. Read full review

Hi Dear Jamie

Thanks for your review.

Regarding the new job of Nikon,it is necessary to admit that "It is really a great work of technology"In almost all DSLR s we suffer mainly from the noise in high ISO which corrupts the image tottally and all the manufacturers still are fighting with this problem and apparently no solutions so far have been achieved though they claim that the problem predominatly solved.By D700 Nikon has shown their potential capabilities,so generally speaking sooner or later all manufacturers should concentrate on full frame CCD s or CMOS in order to get rid of tis nasty noises.In for example E3 Olympus although the image quality is quite all right but in higher ISO I mean higher than 800 those beautifull red and oringe balls start to damage the image! So the same in Canon 40D and even in D300 Nikon in high ISO.Any way we are waiting for other participants in the market to do the same job may be in the new standard which is called Micro Four Thirds developed by olympus and Panasonic by giving more room to the imager by eleminating the mirror and the mirror box.

Thanks and Best Regards

Shapour Va'zi Tehran Iran

Hello Jamie Harrison,

You wrote at page 7: .... The image is a little warm for my liking (Hannah).

Yes, thats normal without an embedded color profile. Below the same photo with a sRGB color profile.

Hey Jamie,

A few questions:

1 - Did you miss the buttons labeled with the magnifying glass to get to full size images from thumbnails?

2 - Did you set the self cleaning sensor to actually clean?

3 - Why would you use daylight or flash preset with your studio strobes? You should shoot a custom preset!

4 - Slow AF in low light, what are you comparing to? (Please note also that it is a Multi CAM 3500 module not a Multi CAM 300 module)

5 - Vignetting, this is a lens issue, are you reviewing the lens (which is not a great one) or the camera?

Overall a much better review than your D60 review, but please take the time to better acquaint yourself with a camera before writing a review. It is well known that most dust reduction systems dont work awfully well (Canon and Sony being dismal compared to the Olympus).
