The Nikon D700 DSLR – A Wolf in Sheep’s clothing?
The new release from Nikon is now here at Elite Gadgets.
On unveiling the Nikon D700 from its wrappings, we were quite taken aback with what we found.
It is a small but professional twelve mega pixel, full frame (FX Format) Digital SLR. Its exterior is very similar to the D300 except for its larger viewfinder, and internally it is very similar to the D3 albeit for a slightly lower shutter speed.
If you compare it to the D3 then there have been some good improvements from Nikon on the D700. With Image Sensor Cleaning or Sensor shake, more flexible ‘hard button’ program virtual horizon in Live View and different DX mode indication on the focusing screen, it is a new cut above the rest. Finally, it is the first Pro DSLR from Nikon with built in flash.
The Nikon D700 has taken the superb image quality of the D3 by using the same technology such as the 12.1 mega pixel sensor with very large pixel pitch and gapless micro lens array providing bright clean files across the whole ISO range. It also utilizes the same Expeed high speed image processing system, a 14 bit A/D conversion and 16-bit processing pipeline to give the pixel perfect detail you require for perfect print enlargement and reproduction.
It is the perfect action camera for the photographer on the move. Incorporating Nikon’s image sensor cleaning system which uses high frequency vibrations to clean the sensor of dust accumulation.
Despite it reasonable price tag the Nikon D700 DSLR does not skimp on features. It also boasts a highly responsive shutter release time lag of just 40ms and the acclaimed pinpoint accuracy of the 51-point MultiCAM3500 AF System, DX Crop Mode and Live View with contrast-detect AF displayed on the TFT monitor. The new larger viewfinder is also a great bonus, featuring a solid glass pentaprism, 95% coverage and adjustable AF point LED illumination for a bright, uninterrupted view of your subject.
The new Nikon D700 Digital SLR camera, it is what the Nikon enthusiast has really been waiting for……
