of vergis ik mij hier nu in.
Volgens een Ken(ner):
What the D3 still does better than the D700:
Faster! Not only is the frame rate much faster, the D3 is way faster than the D300 because it has bigger motors, bigger AF-S drivers and more processing horsepower to do all the math required of the AF system. I suspect the D3 will similarly be faster than the D700.
5:4 crop mode (not in D700). I use this daily!
D3 has onboard live backup with a second card slot, which I use all the time. D700, as an amateur camera, only has one slot.
No sensor cleaner working every time you turn it on means the D3 probably fires up faster than the D700.
Bigger battery, unless you add the grip to the D700.
D3 has a rear data LCD, which I've not found that useful. D700 has none.
Shutter "tested" to 300,000 cycles, vs. 150,000.
Better finder for DX; the D3 crops well instead of just drawing a rectangle.
D3 may have far superior finder if the D700 has the same silly obstructive-black active AF area indicators. (The D3 has unconstructively lit active AF areas.)
The D700 has no card-door release lever, since the new INFO button is there. I suspect the D700 card door will feel worthless and weak, like the doors on my Canon DSLRs.
The D700 is an amateur camera. By default, the D700 has the idiot beeper (CFN d1) ON, while the professional D3 has it OFF.
What the D700 does better than the D3:
$2,000 less expensive.
Smaller and lighter, unless you opt for the grip.
Sensor cleaner.
What the D700 does better than the D300:
Bigger, better finder! Eyepiece blind. For many people, the better finder could justify the cost over the D300.
The rear INFO button is now its own button, so it won't interact with the file lock button of the D300 and D3. THis is actually an important improvement, but not as important as adding a Picture Control Select button, which is still missing.
Wider ultra-wide lenses available. the 12-24mm DX is realty only equivalent to a 20mm lens on the D700. WIth a 14-24mm, or even a manual-focus 18mm, the D700 is wider than any Nikon lens on any DX camera.
Much better in low light, and even in bright, contrasty light. THe D300 has noise issues even at ISO 200 with ADR on. You could shoot the D700 above ISO 6,400 and get great results, but you won't have to. ISO 6,400 is way fast enough, presuming you've got fast lenses like the 50mm f/1.4 AF-D.
