Quick Overview

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.

“Great PRO Camera..... Not Pro price tag”

A review, by Joseph

(Posted on 6/7/11)

This thing is great. First thing is how solid it is. Well built, heavy and tough.
Mated to a battery grip and a 24-70 f/2.8 there is nothing else you will need.
Built in flash works well to trigger my other nikon flashes.

Would recomend this camera to anyone looking to buy Nikon.
