The FX format CMOS sensor, which matches the size of a 35 mm film, was first introduced by Nikon on 2007 with the Nikon D3. Earlier digital cameras used smaller sensors that resulted in a cropping of the image formed by a 35 mm camera lens.
The D700 additionally packs features to satisfy a broad spectrum of photographic needs.
High Speed Performance
The continuous shooting speed is up to 5 frames per second with the included Rechargeable Li-ion Battery, and up to 8 fps when using the optional Multi-Power Battery Pack and Rechargeable Li-ion Battery or eight AA-size batteries. The Nikon D700 is also compliant with the next-generation high-speed UDMA CompactFlash cards, that will enable 35-Mbyte recording speed.
Scene Recognition System
The Scene Recognition System, tracks subject position and automatically shifts the AF points used to match the subject's movement within the frame. This system also contributes to higher accuracy of auto exposure and auto white balance detection.
Picture Control System
Users can make specific selections and adjustments to image sharpening, tone compensation, brightness, tone and saturation. Even with different cameras, when the settings are the same, you get the same picture tone. Picture Control System offers four fundamental setting options - Standard, Neutral, Vivid and Monochrome - for easy customization of image parameters.
DX cropping mode
The Nikon D700 lets you select from either FX format (36 x 24) or DX format (24 x 16). At the default setting of [Auto DX crop], the camera will automatically select DX format when a DX NIKKOR lens is attached.
