Re: Nikon D700 is Da Bomb.

[Regarding image quality] ... among the lowest noise and otherwise highest image quality of any camera. Hard to not like that.
said by Luminous Landscape :
Truly amazing is that ISO 25,000 equivalent, though noisy, is no worse than Tri-X used to be at ISO 1,200. Wow! I need one.
said by Luminous Landscape :
I would suggest that a two camera kit consisting of a D300 and a D700 is almost ideal. Yeah, and if I had a four-bay garage, parking a Lamborghini and a Ferrari in the other two stalls would be ideal. Sadly, ...

I think his point was using the D300 for long lens shooting since the crop factor gets you out further... D700 will get you wider. put them together and shazam

D3 + D700 = $8,000
D700 + D300 = $4,800
I think the D700+D300 combo would be a good compromise in cost and performance. Event photogs, esp. weddings benefit from having 2 bodies. 1. no fumbling with lenses. 2. You have a backup body.
A 70-200mm on the D700 and the 17-55mm DX on the D300 could be a good combo.
or.. 70-200mm on the D700 and the 24-70mm on the 2nd D700.
Sounds like quite a workout!
