Product Details
Large image sensor, developed by Nikon; 12.1 effective megapixels
The D700 employs an FX format CMOS image sensor with an area of 36.0mm (h) x 23.9mm
(v). It provides superior picture quality throughout a wide ISO sensitivity range,
with advantages that include a large pixel size to ensure a higher signal-to-noise
ratio and wide dynamic range, and improved circuit layout to efficiently increase
the strength of the electrical signal from pixels. High-speed, 12-channel readout
enables fast continuous shooting of high resolution images at up to 8 frames per
second (with Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-D10 and Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL4a/4
or eight AA-size batteries).
Wide sensitivity range
The D700 offers an extremely wide sensitivity range of ISO 200 to 6400. It delivers
extraordinary image quality at low sensitivity settings, while also delivering
outstandingly low-noise characteristics at ISO settings as high as 6400. Furthermore,
sensitivity can be increased to HI 0.3, HI 0.5, HI 0.7, HI 1 (ISO 12,800 equivalent),
HI 2 (ISO 25,600 equivalent), or decreased to Lo 1 (ISO 100 equivalent), Lo 0.7,
Lo 0.5 and Lo 0.3, to expand shooting versatility.
High-speed performance
Features a startup time of approximately 0.12 second, and a shutter release time
lag of only 40 ms both equivalent to the flagship Nikon D3. The continuous
shooting speed is up to 5 frames per second with the included Rechargeable Li-ion
Battery EN-EL3e, and up to 8 fps when using the optional Multi Power Battery Pack
MB-D10 and Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL4a/4 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.
EXPEED image processing
Nikon's state-of-the-art EXPEED digital image-processing incorporates remarkable
intelligence and technologies accumulated and optimized throughout our long history.
It makes possible a diverse range of functions that ensure superior picture quality
and high-speed image processing.
Scene Recognition System
Improvements to the exclusive 1,005-pixel RGB light sensor have allowed information
from the sensor to be utilized for auto exposure, auto white balance and autofocus.
3D-Tracking in AF, for example, achieved by using 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
Nikon's Control System enables users, from novices to professionals, to create
the pictures they envision by making 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.
Active D-Lighting
Active D-Lighting lets photographers choose from various intensities – Auto, High,
Normal, Low or OFF (Unchanged) prior to shooting. Instead of employing the conventional
compensation method of simply expanding dynamic range, localized tone control
technology is utilized to ensure proper contrast and eliminate flat images with
lost highlights and shadows.
AF system with high-density 51-point AF
The D700 incorporates a Multi-CAM 3500FX autofocus sensor module featuring 51
AF points. Fifteen cross-type sensors located in the center enable subject detection
with lens apertures as small as f/5.6. The functioning of the AF points is linked
to the Scene Recognition System, to deliver superior subject detection and focus
tracking performance. A single AF point can be selected from the 51 or 11 focus
points. In Dynamic-area AF mode, you can select from either 9, 21 or 51 AF areas.
The 51-point option offers 3D-Tracking mode, which automatically shifts the focus
point to match the subject's movements. Auto-area AF mode gives greater priority
to the subject's position when selecting AF points.
Choose from two Live View modes
Live View allows shooting while confirming the subject on the 3 inch, 920,000 dot
color LCD monitor. In Handheld mode, which lets you recompose the frame prior
to actual shooting, ordinary TTL phase-detection AF is activated, using all 51
AF points including 15 cross-type points. Tripod mode is designed for precise
focus accuracy with still subjects and tripod stabilization. It enables focal-plane
contrast-detect AF on a desired point within a specific area. Remote view, focusing
and shooting can also be controlled from a PC (via connection or wireless) using
optional Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 software.
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.
High-definition, 3-inch VGA, TFT LCD monitor with wide viewing angle
The ultrahigh-definition [920,000-dot VGA (640 x 480)], 3-inch LCD monitor with
tempered glass provides a 170 degrees viewing angle. The large monitor is remarkably
effective when confirming the focus with enlarged playback images. The wide viewing
angle enables easy recomposing of the frame in Hand-held mode with Live View.
Viewfinder provides 95% frame coverage, 0.72x magnification in FX format
The viewfinder features an eye-level pentaprism with high refraction index and
provides 95 percent frame coverage with 0.72x magnification. Fifty-one AF points and
a framing grid are superimposed on the finder screen. The eyepoint is 18 mm (at
–0.1 m-1), and the diopter can be adjusted within a range of –3 to +1 m-1.
Image Sensor Cleaning
Vibrations at four different resonant frequencies remove dust from the optical
low-pass filter in front of the image sensor. This function is automatically activated
each time the camera is turned on and off, and can also be activated on demand
by the photographer.
Built-in flash with wireless commander function
With a guide number of approximately 17/56 (m/ft., ISO 200, 20°C/68°F) and 24mm
lens coverage, the high-performance built-in flash enables i-TTL flash control
that evaluates flash exposure with greater precision for exceptional results.
Compatible with the Nikon Creative Lighting System, the built-in flash controls
up to two groups of remote units as a master/commander in Advanced Wireless Lighting.
Engineered durability
A magnesium alloy is used for the exterior cover, rear body and mirror box to
reduce weight and provide rugged durability. O-ring sealing where connections
are made gives you valuable protection against dust and moisture. The shutter
unit developed and manufactured by Nikon employs shutter blades made of a new
material (a hybrid of carbon fiber and Kevlar). Tested on fully assembled cameras,
the D700's shutter unit has been proven through 150,000 cycles under demanding
conditions. The self-diagnostic shutter constantly monitors and maintains shutter
precision.
Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-D10 (option)
The optional Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-D10, which uses one Rechargeable Li-ion
Battery EN-EL4a/4/3e or eight AA-size batteries, is equipped with a shutter-release
button, AF-ON button, multi selector, and main and sub command dials. When attached,
it enables high-speed continuous shooting of 12.1-megapixel images at a rate of
up to 8 fps*. * When using EN-EL4a/4 or eight AA-size batteries.
Exclusive Wireless Transmitter WT-4/4A (option)
The WT-4/4A supports both wired LAN (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX) and wireless LAN (IEEE
802.11b/g, 11a), and incorporates a thumbnail mode. A PC allows wireless connection
of up to five cameras, for display of thumbnail images and downloading of selected
images. Using Camera Control Pro 2 (option) and the Live View function, wireless
remote view/control shooting is also possible.
Fine tuning for AF
The focal point in AF for the current CPU lenses can be fine-tuned and registered.
A certain level of adjustment set for up to 12 lens types is applied when a lens
of the same type is attached. When using a lens that has not been registered,
the same level of adjustment can be applied.
Improved Function button feature
In addition to the exclusive Function button, this feature can be assigned to
the Preview button and the AE/AF Lock button, for optimum flexibility. Furthermore,
NEF copy recording together with JPEG image can be assigned to the Function button.
