Introduction

The D700 is the latest FX-format ("full frame") digital SLR from Nikon. Following on from the instant classic of the D3, the D700 retains most of it's features, adds a few more, and retails for thousands less.

All about the D700 

Nikon's D700 caused a major buzz in the photography world when it was announced. How could Nikon possibly launch such a well-specified camera just six months after their top-of-the-line D3? Whatever the reasons, that's exactly what they did, and the D700 is selling like the proverbial hotcakes.

The camera is simply too complex to detail here, so please visit the Nikon D700 website for an in-depth review and other news.
