[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 257090, member: 13556"] Moabman, I've got a D700, but no real experience with the D600 or D800 beyond handling them in a store. IMHO,The D800 comes much closer to being the replacement for the D700 than the D600. Why? The size of the D600. I don't like how the D600 feels and some of its controls are too small for my hands. The D800 is a larger body and feels better to me. If Nikon had called the D800 the D710 instead, would that have made it the replacement? I don't know first hand, but the people I know with the D800 love them. I do know two shooters that had D600s, and they both got rid of them because of the issues others had with the camera. That's right; they had no problems with their copies, but the D600's reputation lead them to unload them. Silly!! There's no doubt that Nikon has a PR problem. The magnitude of its problem appears to be due largely to its response to its customers. What Nikon needs to due is improve the level and quality of service to its customers, and fast. They apparently [I]could[/I] take a lesson from Canon on that. WM [/QUOTE]
