JDD's Take on the Nikon D700

James Duncan Davidson writes about his first impressions using the Nikon D700. This is the same camera I purchased last month and will be writing about soon. Regarding the build quality, Duncan notes:

In hand, the D700 feels like you want a pro camera to feel. Nice. Solid. It’s got the same super well constructed feel that I’m used to from my Canon 1-series cameras, but in a normal sized body. This is the kind of construction that people want when they say they want an improvement in build quality in the Canon 5D. If you’ve never held a camera of this caliber, you won’t care about this. But if you have, you know exactly the attributes I’m talking about. It’s like the build quality of a BMW compared to a Ford.

His experience with so many other cameras (especially Canon) lends an insightful perspective.
