I have a pro friend who was shooting Nikon. I believe with a D3 and
700D. He recently got rid of the D3 and bought the new full-frame
Sigma and the Zeiss Planar lenses that are available for it. He says
it's the same sensor as the D3X. And he wanted the in-body shake
reduction. I fondled one of those Zeiss lenses -- a 135/1.8.
Beautiful. And a metal hood. Gadzooks. I've read that the lenses are
not actually made by Zeiss. But they sure look good.

Sounds really, really nice. But for what I shoot I don't need the
resolution.
The low light performance is what drew me to the D700 (Lo-1 = ISO
100,
Hi-2 = ISO 25600) & I'm more than satisfied with the IQ.
Thom Hogan has posted an interesting commentary about this camera
here: http://www.bythom.com/nikond3xcomments.htm
He's quite critical of Nikon's launch and marketing strategy, and i
think he makes some excellent points.
Very perceptive article. Michael Reichmann of Luminous Landscape is
similarly underwhelmed.
