[QUOTE="Iansky, post: 59873, member: 9824"] The D700 in the UK is still retailing for around the £1650.00 mark and with prime Nikon stockists there does not appear to be an issue getting hold of them, one of the most famous stockists who only sell Nikon " Grays of Westminster" have stock and no issues getting them and they are still advocating that it will run alongside the D800 for the forseable future. I am not considering upgrading as the D700 gives me all the quality I need and when shooring Raw at 14bit and processing as 16bit I get files that are 70mb so plenty big enough for large prints if needed, I do finally downsize to 8bit for posting and converting to JPEg but nice to know quality is there if needed. The D800 looks like a nice camera but it's standard image size at around 70mb (base Raw format) is huge and will take up a lot of space even as Tiffs and I understand from reading reviews that the IQ is not hugely different from that of the D700 especially in low light so for me, the D700 will remain my trusty and reliable friend for quite a while to come.
