The D700 extends Nikon’s range of FX format SLRs, incorporating
groundbreaking technologies and performance into a discreetly-sized
body. The highly sensitive 12.1 megapixel CMOS sensor provides an
(extendable) ISO range of 200 to 6400 and features a self-cleaning
dust-reduction unit. Its EXPEED image processing engine enables the
capture of images with superb detail and tonal gradation at up to 5 fps
(8 fps with the optional MB-D10 battery pack and EN-EL4a battery).

Features:

• 12.1 megapixel FX (full-frame) CMOS sensor with high signal-to-noise ratio, wide dynamic range, and built-in self-cleaning sensor unit that minimizes dust.
• ISO 200 – 6400: extendable up to 25600 (equivalent) and down to ISO 100 (equivalent).
• 5fps continuous shooting (8fps with optional MB-D10 battery pack with lithium-ion battery EN-EL4a or 8 AA batteries).
• EXPEED image processing engine with 14-bit A/D conversion and 16-bit image processing for superb detail and tonal gradation.
• Advanced Scene Recognition System combines the camera’s metering and AF sensors for precise exposures and sharply defined images.
• Multi-CAM3500FX 51-point AF system. Individually selectable or configurable in 9-point, 21-point and 51-point coverage settings.
• Picture Controls streamline in-camera image processing by
  enabling the pre-set customization of image parameters such as
  sharpening, contrast, brightness, hue and saturation in various color
  modes.
• 920,000 dot 3-inch VGA LCD monitor with wide, 170-degree viewing angle.
• Live View with Autofocus enables composition of images by use of the LCD monitor. Two modes are supported: Handheld or Tripod.
• DX Crop Mode can be automatically enabled when a DX format lens is attached.
• Quick response: approx. 40 ms shutter-lag.
• Active D-Lighting enables superior high-contrast images by automatically applying tone compensation at the moment of capture.
• HDMI video output interface enables connection to high-definition video systems.
• Intuitive ergonomics with optimized button placement for fast and comfortable handling.
• Durable Magnesium alloy body: moisture and dust resistant.
• Wireless LAN and Ethernet support via optional Wireless Transmitter WT-4.

The advanced Scene Recognition System delivers superior exposures and
is supported by Nikon’s acclaimed 51-point AF system, which offers
outstanding tracking accuracy even in low light. The selectable Picture
Controls streamline in-camera image processing, saving time in
post-production, and a high definition 3-inch LCD screen supports two
Live View modes plus an HDMI video output. Protected by a tough,
environmentally-sealed magnesium alloy body, the D700 is a
perfectly-balanced DSLR that can handle the unexpected, wherever your
photography takes you.
