Nikon D700 gets real: full-frame, 12.1 megapixels
1Jul2008 Filed under: Digital Camera Author: John C
Well, we can finally put the D700 rumors to bed. The beast that houses Nikon’s newest monster (near) full-frame FX format 12.1 megapixel CMOS (not dissimilar from that found in the D3) is officially announced tonight, and it takes UDMA CompactFlash, and comes packing with a live view 3-inch display, 51 point autofocus (with 3D tracking), scene recognition, four-speed active dust reduction, ISO up to 6400, 5 or 8 fps full-res shooting, HDMI out, and a whole lot more. Expect it in July for $3,000 US (for the body).
Also being released are the SB-900 speedlight (August, $500), and the PC-E Micro NIKKOR 45mm f/2.8D ED and PC-E Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D lenses (August, $1,800 and $1,740, respectively).

As an avid user of the D80, I can’t wait to try this monster out. It looks like a D80, just…..evil’er.
