Regarding still image quality alone, the Nikon D700 is a prodigious force within the full-frame professional DSLR market. Its stellar high ISO performance propelled the camera above many of its competitors, including the Canon Eos 5D Mark II, and its overall image quality was some of the best we’ve seen within this class. The Nikon D700 features an excellent interface that offers some sort of external control for nearly every primary image adjustment we could ask for in the field. The Nikon D700 has a highly intuitive menu system, three-inch LCD with Live View and rugged construction that survived a surreptitious precipitation ambush on the Brooklyn Bridge. On the downside, the Nikon D700 does not have a video mode, and that’s what makes the Canon Eos 5D Mark II so enticing. We’re pretty sure the next incarnation of the D700 will feature HD video recording, but we chose the D700 over the Eos 5D Mark II when it came down to still quality. The Nikon D700 is a manual machine with several features that cater to the advanced photographer, and its compatibility with FX lenses allow the shooter to combine exceptional optics with an awesome camera body. We really didn’t have any major complaints after our expedition with the Nikon D700, and we’re almost certain you’ll feel the same. Release: July 2008. Price: $3000.
Pros: Excellent high ISO performance. Extensive interface and features. Rugged, durable body. Compatible with many accessories and all FX and DX lenses.
Cons: DX lenses bring on the crop factor. Zooming in Playback gets pixilated. Viewfinder coverage is only 95%.
