Nikon D700 12.1 Megapixel FX Digital SLR Camera

The new D700 incorporates an extensive array of features that boast a level of performance that is in many ways comparable to the D3. At the same time, it derives a wide range of benefits including functionality, flexibility and operability from the more agile D300, Nikon's flagship DX-format D-SLR.
