[QUOTE="stmv, post: 127989, member: 10038"] The D700 had a great run, also have to remember, that Japan changed their battery rules, and had to redesign the battery, so the last year, I hear that Nikon could not even sell the D700 in Japan due to the older battery design. Hence the updated battery design of the newer generation with the contacts now no longer exposed, which seems to have impacted the performance by about 10% for the sake of improved safety (I guess if you short out the older batteries they can overheat and cause fires).
