The two you mention are very different cameras, the D7000 is DX or small frame and the D700 is FX or full frame, good to know if you have lots of lenses for you DX D80, these may not work on the D700. The 7K has video, the D700 does not. The D700 costs about 2.5 times what the D7000 costs. I think it is safe to say the D700 is regarded as a pro level camera just under the D3's and the D7000 is more of a newer technology prosumer level camera.  You first need to decide what your needs are currently and in the future. Both are Nikon, both are great but very different.</blockquote>
