At last, having been a happy owner of a d200 for the last 2 years, I'm delighted with my purchase of a new D700 (that costs RM8,600) with Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8 (RM5,200).

Well, all i can say is that it performs very much like has been said by many satisfied users. I've only done some quick snapshots, but already found that its AWB is surprisingly good, and so is AE, which doesn't underexpose like the D200, and of course, superior image quality with hardly any noise at high iso. Very easy to use, esp. coming from the D200, with improved ergonomics, like the multi-selector with centre button (no more accidental navigation), zoom in/out buttons (why didn't they do this before), playback and info button (better layout of screen data), marvellous hires lcd and vf, liveview (no more neckaches during tripod work or awkward pov), virtual horizon (actually found it useful and is quite sensitive). even the shutter sounds snappier. on the whole, no complaints.
The 24-70 is such a pro lens there's not much to talk about. it just delivers. matches and balances very well with the D700.
Anyway, the shots were taken in 14-bit raw, processed in nx2, and the fullsize jpgs can be viewed and downloaded here:-
