Nikon D700

評測報告

實拍照片

Made in Japan
Full frame
Cheaper than D3
Built in flash so don't need to carry SB 800 all the time

Expensive
Need more time to find it out

This is a dream body for a lot Nikon fans, however the price is not friendly yet. About people compare it to 5D, I am sure D700 will be much better. Hope people come here to share their objective experience and not to to be picky because they are jealous.

Enjoy FX simlar to D3 performance, but less ~$10000.

Easy to carry than D3, good for semi-Pro.

Exspensive compare with D300, but still worth to buy for nikon old fans! All the old lens are supported!

Good machine we expected for a long time!

質數高.優點多
對蕉準
造工精细.機身相當扎實

1200萬像素高多些少就好好多

用了１個多月
由D80至D7000
終於升級D700
雖然不景是3年機
旦事D700真的是１部好好的機
所以曰本沒有想過停產
出便個價有升無跌
D800有排呢

加埋直倒手感正
高iso質數都無問題同(D90)比
機身靚仔都係同(D90)比
D700佩支幾百元o既鏡頭影出來o既相質數都係靚過DX機加貴鏡頭影出來o既相好多好多

比DX機重好多(我之前用D90)
鏡頭重量分別重大
自動白平衡有時不太準
原廠Fx 鏡頭比原廠DX鏡頭貴好多
副廠Fx 鏡頭比副廠DX鏡頭貴小小

一直都想買部單反相機,但一直都覺得好小影相搵唔到藉口買,
到上年5月結婚同老婆商量買部單反機叫舅仔幫我地影下,
揀左好耐終於揀左部D90,D90加AFS 35mm F1.8影出來o既相真係唔錯,
結婚果晚見攝影師用D700,大家影出來o既相好明顯就分別到出來,
D700影出來o既相好有立體感,D90影出來o既相就比較濛o的,
個攝影師同我講話佢用緊果支24-75龍仔都唔洗三千元,我就係咁比佢毒左,
買左D700後本身唔係咁識用單反相機o既我(我部D90都係亂影左幾百張相)
居然影出來o既相同攝影師影出來o既相都有得比,講真呢部機出相o既質數真係無得壇,
但重量對我來講真係好金,帶支Sigma 70-200mm os 同SB900去行山真係幾要命,
要換全片幅相機o既師兄妹要諗真怕唔怕重,如果刻復到個重字真係要換部全片幅機來試下,
包你影出來o既相即時升左Lv,對自己影o既相有哂信心.

始終喜歡N記的對焦和顏色。有內置閃光燈，一秒五張夠爽快，由Nikon F2, F3, F4, F5 到D70, D200, 都是覺得Nikon 機比較札實（可能是我的偏見，但我也用過第一代5D和還有用EOS500D）。D-lighting 的auto setting 好有用，那寬容度更像菲林。有多重曝光（D200 已有），還可和D200 共用電池。Focus very fast and spot on even with low end lenses and old AF lenses.

I have to say these are not big 缺點 at all. Just some very minor points. Afterall, I love using the D700!
1. 不是100%viewfinder
2. 個電磁蓋做功較差，D200那個做比它堅固。
3. 沒有雙咭插槽。
4. 水平儀在viewfinder 內的顯示太細
5. 先天缺憾，N記要玩其它舊鏡如M42, C/Y mount都要改鏡。
6. Shutter sound is crispy but a bit loud in compare with Leica M cameras. Sometimes will draw attention during snap shot on the road.

剛於幾星期前買了D700, X澤價都是$16800還可分24期，$700一個月，抵！今天看到灣仔腦場更只需$16000現金價，低處未算低。但以這個價買到部全片幅機，冇投訴。之前想過買D800, 但大部份分銷商都冇現貨，排隊排到暑假。有貨的又被炒到近三皮。反正看過多數用家報告，D700已足夠用來玩我的手動和自動舊鏡，等到D900 出街時再買D800也未遲，哈哈！
N.B. : There are plenty of supply of D800 and D800E and the new Nikon 28/1.8G in China's Camera Shops. I checked the price in Beijing is RMB 25K for D800 and RMB32K for D800E.

- Unbeatable high ISO performance

- Solid Design

- 1/3 of the D3 price but having most of the D3 function but coming in a compact D300 type body. What other dream machine we can ask for more???

- Too many 優點 to name, refer back to my 用後感 as I don't want to repeat anything here again.

- Not particularly against D700, but same thing happened on all other full frame camera as well. DUST SPOT on the sensor!!!! We need to keep an eye on the dust on sensor and have that clean on regular basis. But D700 comes with the dust removal function. NICE. Also we have Nikon Professional Service in Australia and we can have the sensor clean free of charge. So it doesn't sounds like a real 缺點 to me.

- Someone might be complaining about the weight of the camera. But come on, we are talking about a professional camera which can deliver excellent photo quality. I guess people complaining about the weight are not a real owner of the camera. If you are interested in the D700 photo quality, you will enjoy the weight. I am using the D700 with 24-70mm f/2.8. It makes it like a 2kg combo. I am happily shooting with it on daily basis.

- Again, someone might be complaining there are no picture mode including, Portrait, Landscape, Micro .... Again, COME ON :p You don't need this mode if you are already considering getting a D700. Be a real photographer and get out from the auto mode and shoot with the photographer eye and brain!!!

- I wish it can comes with more pixel but at the same time remaining the unbeatable high ISO performance. But it's a trade-off, the more the pixel = the less light sensitive on each pixel (look at 5D MII about high ISO and you can see the difference)... I guess it still a few more years to come before a real dream machine comes out with HUGE mega pixel but Excellent high ISO like what D700 doing now.


SERIOUSLY, besides the full frame sensor are more likely to attract dust, I really can't think of any real 缺點 on the D700. But the dust issue will be appearing on all full frame camera including D3, D3X, 5D MII .....

I am a photographer in Sydney. Although I only use the D700 for around 1.5 months, but I already shoot more than 11000 photos on my camera now.

I will highly recommand the D700 to anyone who are using Nikon DSLR before and looking for an upgrade. I was using a D80 and upgraded to D700 and leaving D80 as my humble backup camera.

影像質素，色彩表現
The high ISO performance is unbeatable with it's competitor like 5D Mark II.
The dynamic range is very good on D700 under some difficult lighting environment. e.g. I shoot lots of cars at work. I can capture great details inside the car while some harsh sunlight coming through the window, D700 can keep the details in both the shadow and highlight area.

拍攝速度
Good example on the speed is it takes me around 5 hours to shoot around 700 car photos on my D80. But the same amount of photos it only required around 3.5 hours shooting time on the D700. I am seriously happy about this!!!

外形設計，手感
I like the size of the camera. I am around 5'10" tall asian guy. D700 fit perfectly in my hand. Also the leather trimming and metal make me feel really comfortable after prolong shooting time.

用電量
Being using the same battery as D80, the battery life improve around 20% on my D700.
