The Nikon D700 ($2500 body only; $3600 with a 24mm-to-120mm VR lens) digital SLR camera walks the walk of professional gear. Though it's the less-beefy sibling of the pro-level Nikon D3, the D700 features many of the great capabilities of that model--only at a lower price, and in a smaller package.

Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks
Strengths: FX(fullframe/no lens magnifying factor), High usable ISO till 6400, low noise, good frame rate,
Weaknesses:Flash exposure issues with flash, shutter, aperture setting. Color setting is too contrasty. Awkward combination of LCD, push buttons and dial controls(I don't like the layout)
Overall Evaluation: After having used F4 shooting film for so long holding D700 seemed like it would work, but so far it's been a struggle. My SB25 flash got stuck, the exposure was rarely what I wanted, and hard to correct. It seems like there's more options, but none of them are of much use. The button lay out makes me hold the camera in a weird way(eg, the AE lock makes me stretch out my thumb way too far to hold the camera steady.) Exposure issues: Incorrect colors(too punchy/too contrasty), problem with shutter & flash control(can't seem to set the shutter to descent speed to keep the background exposed to give good ambiance), I'm using the D lens and it takes a while to focus. F4 was much faster, and the view finder was brighter, and easier to see for manual focusing. So far the D700 promised a lot of high end features, but seems to fail on delivering the basic stuff that I rely on so much. The best thing about this product so far is that it's giving me the use of my full line of non-DX lens. I've got to take this to work in a couple of days, and it's making me a bit concerned, wish me luck!

Duration of ownership: 10 Days
Strengths: High ISO with clear picture and no noise
Weaknesses:A little big
Overall Evaluation: But small compared to the D3. A real gem for indoor work. You can get 1/500 or 1/1000 at 2.8 at 200mm. Nice clear viewfinder. Will use all lenses made by Nikon since the 70's.
