Digital camera reviews of Nikon D700 12.1MP Digital SLR Camera with 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6G ED IF VR Nikkor Zoom Lens

Digital camera Review: Amateur Perspective
Summary: 5 Stars

I am no expert photographer. I am an amateur, at best, and lucky at worst. Why on earth did I buy the D700? I was looking to update my very old 3 megapixel Canon, which was wonderful, but a bit old and beat up. Besides, I had matured past it in my photography. As I do before most any major purchase, I read about my options. There were many "in-between" cameras that would have worked just fine, however I desired the full size sensor. Eventually, I chose the Nikon D700. I knew that it was a bit beyond my skills. I also knew that there was a lot of room to grow with this camera. I made a good choice. The controls and functions are easy to use and personalize. I haven't quite grasped the finer techniques of the master photographer, but that will come in time. I see this as a good long term investment. I chose Nikon because of their superb glass quality, however the lens in this kit fails to display that. Bottom line: Buy the camera, but buy a new lens.

Summary of Nikon D700 12.1MP Digital SLR Camera with 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6G ED IF VR Nikkor Zoom Lens

Building on the immense success of the Nikon D3 professional D-SLR camera, the D700 offers pro-level performance and an extensive array of features and innovations in a comfortably nimble platform. In addition to the Nikon-original FX-format CMOS sensor, the D700 incorporates Nikon's EXPEED Image Processing System, Nikon's renowned 51-point auto focus system with 3D Focus Tracking and two Live View shooting modes that allow photographers to frame a shot using the camera's three-inch high-resolution LCD monitor. The D700 also features Nikon's sophisticated Scene Recognition System and a new active dust reduction system.

Nikon's flagship FX and DX-format cameras, the D3 and D300 respectively, established new benchmarks for digital image quality, speed, and unmatched ISO performance. The D700 maintains this new measure with exceptional overall image quality, broad tonal range and depth, and extremely low noise throughout its native ISO range of 200 to 6400.

The AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED lens adds a powerful additional zoom lens to Nikon's line of Vibration Reduction (VR) lenses. This lens also includes Nikon's exclusive Silent Wave Motor Technology for fast, accurate and nearly silent focusing.

In addition, the AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED lens includes a selection of Nikon advanced technologies such as Manual/Automatic mode, two Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements and two Aspheric lens elements, Internal Focusing (IF) construction , Super Integrated Coating (S-IC) and G-Type design.
