[QUOTE="Ramseybella, post: 691181, member: 42925"] My D700 is staying till it or me dies. Working on getting a D3 or D3X reason i bought these D2 models to get an insight on how it will feel. So far the view finder is heaven the weight i like it's actually lighter then the D700 with a grip and two batteries. The color of skin is natural on the D2H and the D2X. I had two D200's and although they were great and the skin tone was solid, when i moved to the D700 all changed. Would i like a D800? Sure but i can't see why. I would need to upgrade my lenses because the D800 will most likely out resolve some of them. I shot film for years Fuji Velvia 50, 100 and Fuji PRO 400 transparencies and the D2H clearly is superseding the Velvia hands down. I looked over my old work recently, my Press photos of way beck and yes the color and feel of the old Fuji still has that magic but on the whole, the Digital wins. But then i worked for a news paper and less grain and jumping color wasn't my first concern. It was the magic sharp shot, the Velvia filled in the missing pieces. These days press photographers are thinning I phones are all over the place for that moment captured in time, hell most i phone shots look better than film. And everyone has been on the MP wars, i see no fun it that. Thank goodness photojournalism is still alive and well.. These are great cameras to bang around the streets with and cheap enough no to worry if one get stolen or gets broken. [/QUOTE]
