Description: From the moment you pick up the Nikon D700 and look through its large, exceptionally bright viewfinder, you'll know you're holding something special. This ultra-responsive SLR camera houses advanced features and precise controls in its rock-solid body, giving you nearly limitless photographic possibilities. Plus, it's compatible with a broad spectrum of lenses and an extensive lineup of Nikon accessories. The included Nikon zoom lens provides a versatile focal range for wide-angle and medium telephoto shooting. This lens features image-stabilizing technology to keep your pictures looking sharp in low-light shooting environments where camera shake can cause images to blur.
The D700 boasts the same powerful 12.1-megapixel CMOS image sensor found on Nikon's professional D3 digital SLR. This full-frame sensor has the same dimensions as a frame of 35mm film on a traditional SLR, making it much larger in physical size than sensors found in most digital cameras. All that extra surface area has several benefits: superior light gathering, dramatically lower noise levels, and extraordinary resolution. You'll get cleaner images with breathtaking depth and clarity, even in challenging low-light shooting conditions. Plus, the D700's self-cleaning sensor unit vibrates at four different resonant frequencies to efficiently remove dust from its surface, ensuring your images remain spot-free.
You can count on shot after shot of crisply focused images with the D700 thanks to Nikon's sophisticated autofocus system. It features a wide-area 51-point array of sensors that can quickly and precisely lock on to your subjects, no matter where they appear in the frame. This lets you easily capture an off-center portrait on a whim, or snap high-speed action shots without getting into a lot of manual adjustments.
