I lose that advantage with a full frame D700. For example, when I’m shooting sports, I get closer to the game (by around 50%) using a D300 because of the 1.5 DX magnification (my 200mm lens gives the equivalent of a 300mm lens on a full-frame sensor).

The Auto-Focus has been enhanced as well, and is an improvement over the D300’s (which is no slouch itself).the 100% view you get from the D3’s viewfinder. The View Finder shows 95% of the actual frame area, vs.

The D700 does have the D3’s Virtual Horizon feature (that gives you an aircraft-cockpit like readout to help you keep your camera level when shooting on a tripod), and on the D700 you can add this Virtual Horizon as an overlay when you’re using Live View.

Although many working pros use the D300, Nikon (and many camera magazines), have always positioned the D300 as a consumer-level camera, but with the inclusion of the D3’s sensor, the D700 is a professional grade camera (just in a smaller package).

We’ll start with a quick recap of what the D700 brings to the table. My challenge in writing this field report, is that while it’s true the D700 is a new camera, it’s really two existing cameras made into one (the guts of a Nikon D3 inside the body of a Nikon D300), so I’m not going to have a bunch of exciting new features to share that everybody doesn’t already know about, so it’s really going to be a “feel for the camera” type of report, and my feelings on who might want one and why. So, when I do a review, I want to bring a slightly different angle to it, so it’s really more of a ‘Field Report’ (what I liked and didn’t like and my personal impressions from actually using it out in the field). The D700 was announced on July 1st, and Nikon seeded a number of photo sites with an early review unit, so for more than a month now we’ve all had access to very detailed write-ups of every single pixel, technical aspect, and mechanical specification possible. Now that I have a few thousands shots on it, I’m ready to share what I’ve learned. A few weeks back, I went ahead and bought the new Nikon D700, but I really wanted to spend some time with it, and shoot in a number of different situations and scenarios, before I gave you my review.
