Nikon D700 Body:

R 27 269.00
The first Nikon FX-format camera, the D3, produced a quantum leap in
digital photography that forever changed the way professionals are able
to work. Now, with the launch of the second Nikon FX-format camera the
Nikon D700 you can achieve, in a smaller, lighter design, many of those
same extraordinary imaging feats that made the Nikon D3 an immediate
legend. Like the D3, the D700 transcends the expectations of the world's
leading photographers, in an agile body developed from the award-winning
DX-format D300.
In soft, subtle lighting, it captures seductively smooth tones with
astonishingly rendered detail easily. In low-lit situations, it delivers
virtually poisefree images for impeccable results at up to ISO 6400
easily. And if you're faced with constantly changing lighting
conditions, the D700 handles these complex exposure changes with ISO
sensitivity auto control easily. When your day is long and demanding and
you need to travel light, you'll appreciate this camera's portability,
responsiveness and finely balanced handling.
And when you need more speed to capture a crucial moment, the D700
delivers with the option of a multi-power battery pack that gives you up
to 8 frames per second, continuous shooting. Whether your subject's
fast, slow or still, you'll capture it with tack-sharp precision using
Nikon's exclusive 51-point AF system easily. Every aspect of the D700
has been carefully engineered, to provide you with the freedom to work
efficiently and with the utmost sensitivity, as a natural extension of
your personal vision.
The D700 achieves a remarkable distillation of the finest imaging
performance digital photography can offer. The D700's 12.1-megapixel
FX-format CMOS image sensor provides exceptional image quality
throughout its remarkable ISO sensitivity range. A large pixel size of
8.45 µm allows for an extremely low signal-to-noise ratio and a wide
dynamic range. The 12-channel readout enables accelerated information
transfer, allowing the D700 to shoot at speeds of up to eight frames per
second at full resolution (using the optional MB-D10 Multi Power Battery
Pack) and quickly write image data onto the CompactFlash card.
The D700 offers a versatile base ISO range from 200-6400 but can be
expanded to range from ISO 100 (Lo-1) to 25,600 (Hi-2) affording
photographers the new-found confidence to shoot in the widest variety of
lighting conditions from the brightest midday sun to dim interiors.
Images previously thought to be impossible to create without complex
lighting set-ups or lengthy post-processing are now captured easily and
faithfully with the D700, unleashing new and diverse shooting
possibilities

the dynamic range when the contrast is too great lets you preserve
highlights, such as those in the sky or a clear halo around the
sun and shadow details |
| 51-point AF system: The strategically
positioned 51 AF points of the D700's Multi CAM 3500FX AF sensor
module are identical with those of the D3 and keep your subject in
focus, even with quick and/or erratic subject movement, across a
wide extent of the frame |
| Versatile AF area modes: The D700's three AF
area modes Single-point AF, Dynamic-area AF and Auto-area AF
prepare you for any shooting situation. With good light control
and a static subject, Single-point AF ensures that the most
