Best digital camera ever. Still have mine. Never for sale.
One of the greatest dslrs of all time 👌🏻 you could beat any mirrorless camera to death with it and it would still shoot flawlessly.
Comic Sans at the end shows me you're really committed to this 🤣
I'm sure it violates at least one UA-cam policy and one article of the Geneva convention.

I worked as a second shooter for a wedding photographer a few years ago who was still using D700 cameras and producing great work!
I still use the D700 for paid work
That was pretty awesome, not to mention D700 is still a relevant camera 14 years later.
Very relevant, its pix pixel sensor has a very nice character - almost as nice as the original 5D - in a very capable body. Use mine primarily with manual focus Nikon glass. Very enjoyable.
Jokes aside, the images from it are beautiful
If they had an award for the most enthusiastic sarcasm at the Oscars, we all know who would be walking up on stage grinning, waving, to collect it. The applause from audience would be wild.
Anytime I see a d700 I send a like no matter what.
Just bought one two weeks ago. I absolutely love it :) And the shutter sound is so much better then a video can ever show.
That shutter!
She surely is a loud slapper :)
I have a D700. Apart from the weight it's still my best camera. If you're in the market for a used and inexpensive full frame, I'd say it may indeed be the camera of the year. But mine is not for sale.
Oh my god... I remember seeing this video 13 years ago and it made me want to buy the Nikon D700.....
Lol.
Ah 2008. Appreciate the commitment all the way through with the rock band sounding music, comic sans font, and those early movie transition effects. Crazy to remember how many gadgets came with a CD and extra goodies. My younger family members don't even have computers that come with a CD drive anymore!
iam a fuji user, but a few days ago, i just buy used nikon D700 with new 50mm AFD and i love it!
I picked one up used 7-8 years ago, and it's still worth now what I paid for it then 🤯 Not that I'd ever part with it, I love that tank!
Love it!!! Subscribed. I'm a high school photo teacher, and in the early days of digital cameras with 2, 6, and 8mp cameras; I wish I had a video record of my telling sceptical students that, "One day, these cameras will have 12, 18, 20 even 40 some mp capabilities to even higher rediculous MP numbers. All that's enough to bog down our computers now, cant imagine the high (MB) computers that could handle these enormous files." And here we are now in the time of enormous MP cameras and laptops measured in Terribites. I use my D700 regularly. A stand alone Nikon that produces images with a signature quality look.
Incredible camera. Nikon really shaked the industry with the D300/D700 cameras.
The images that sensor produces are spectacular even in 2021. But today it's all about high megapixels and high FPS. For people who just love photography, this camera is a steal.
In terms of FPS, it's worth mentioning that it can hit 8 fps with a battery grip
Omar, thank you for your humor 😂
Very funny. You are great, Omar. Made my evening. I bought one last year with 5000 shutter activations. I call that new with a 50mm f1.4 lens and battery grip for about $600. Best deal ever. I am a Fuji shooter now but I love that tank of a camera. This and the D850 are probably the best DSLRs ever. I’ll get the D850 when everyone has gone mirrorless.
it also has a pop up flash (:
what a nice thing to have.
Btw, i'm still using my nikon d90. My first camera.
Possibly the finest DSLR that Nikon had ever made. I've shot with one but never owned one. Shows that you don't need huge amounts of pixels, just a truly wonderful sensor. You can also buy a body in decent condition that's cheaper than an X100S.
I'm more amazed that in 2008 you were able to film this review in 1080P 60fps 😁😋☺️
The D700 is still a great portrait machine 👍🏻
The D700 puts out amazing images. I own three of them.
Wonderful. My old D700 was the camera I’d never sell. Until ALL my Nikon gear went to make way for Fuji. I just found one with a 400 shutter count! I couldn’t say no. I had to find a lens. 28-105 does the job for now. For all the reasons highlighted here I’m very happy.
Enjoyed this video so much, Omar. I got a NikonD700 along with my Fujifilm cameras. It’s a great old DSLR plus it’s built like tank !!! 👍👍👍
Lot of fun. Thanks.
Still have mine and will never get rid of it. It’s simply a fantastic camera and true beast. Although I’m shifting to a much lighter mirrorless camera, I plan to whip out the D700 when I want those iconic film-like images. And it was cool having you take us back in time to 2008 😂
OMG! This video brought back so many memories. I started working as a video editor in 2008 and used the same stock track from this video for so many AVs. I remember borrowing the office Nikon (don't think it was the d700) to go shoot images for my Facebook DP with my friends. Good times. Thank you for this Omar
Ah those memorable clip from Cameralabs and DigitalRev really brings me back to the time I hunt for my first DSLR
I love my d700. Still my favourite camera for portraits using a flash. Best feature for me is the small files. Also, 12mp is more than enough in most situations. It’s the only camera I have made money with.
That opened drawer on the left! I kept starring at it!
2:12 I fell on the floor laughing
This whole video and even the slides feels nostalgic. Best review ever. 💯🤣
I've been using my D700 for about 9 years for athletics and recently landscapes. A cracking good camera, rock solid, although I did get it very wet once which cost me a few £££, but otherwise superb. Love all the dials, does everything I need it for.
Great video Omar, I hope people get the message. Stay safe.
Brother, this was a great intro! Thanks for making my day start with a smile on my face!
Excellent video sir ! Loved it. I’ve got a D700 and I will now show it some love.
A good camera is always a good camera, but this shows a good photographer can take good shots with any camera. Love your humour.
I have two of them!! Absolutely badass camera that produces stunning images!!
Love this video! My Canon 7D from 2009 waves and says Hi to his Nikon brother.
I use D700 with Nikkor 85mm and I love that beautiful pictures it produce. 12mpx is enough for normal prints or Internet.
12mp are way more enough than that,you can print big
I have it and keep it for all my life ! You are so funny ! I love your videos so much (Fuji, Nikon, etc...). Thank you for all !
4:20 "I should start a youtube channel recording sounds"
*whispers
"hello" 🤣🤣🤣
One of the best cameras ever made, I loved it! Cool video!
Still getting wonderful images from a project I did in 2007 with my old Canon 5D. Hated the ergonomics but loved the results.
I was just laughing at your facial expressions and delivery hahah great video!
And here I was looking at cherry blossom tree’s all morning and you go and have a stellar shoot with them! 😭 it’s like you’re rubbing it in my face Omar!
I still have my D90 and loved it till now 😁
Time just stopped for me watching this video…9:26 AM forever! Just acquired one and can’t wait to use it. Great video. Keep them coming.
Awesome video as always. I purchased a D700 a year ago. I love the images it produces, Baby!! 😂
Made my day - brilliant video. I may pick one up one day.
1 month ago I exchanged Fujifilm xt20 for a well-preserved Nikon d700. I don't regret at all.
Omar, you are amazing! Too funny 😂
I'll lend you my D800 for next month's video. Awesome camera!
Made me laugh 😂 , great way to start the weekend! Have great one Omar!
That's my # 1 Dslr for street photography and some. Love it so much I bought another one with 90 clicks on it. Sensor made by Panasonic back then.
Best video so far
Man, I really loved the pictures! Loved the video as well:)
i bought it this year 2021 and love it ..its just made to take pictures .
I fell back in love with photography with Fuji mirrorless cameras, and I’ll always love my X-T1 and X100, but I love using an OVF too much and I replaced them with a D700 and M9.
I can understand that.
Still have my D700. Remember: that was the hottest pro-camera - the Baby D3 in 2009! I remember David Hobby and Joe McNally posting blog entries about them 😂... Good times...
Very funny! I had a D700 back around then. I loved it. The finger grip was deep enough that I could hang the camera off just my finger tips. I don't think I could do that with any of my current cameras. And the D700 was tough as nails.... except when it wasn't. Mine got a single grain of sand in it during a trip to Sydney for the NYE fireworks. Froze up the whole camera right before the early show started. (Fortunately, the J1 had just came out and I had one as back up.) I was finally able to get the grain of sand to move enough right before the main show. Other than that, it was a great camera for its time. Glad I don't have to carry all that weight anymore though.
I love those fancy transitions!
Had one myself, with 24-70 and 14-24... bought mine around 2010. Great camera!
Wow, the production value
I almost spit my coffee out when you said it shoots 5fps😂 that face was hilarious.
Huge thumbs up! This is a great video! I love the d700 and really enjoyed this "time capsule" review.
I miss mine. It was indestructible. To hell and back with it. Most of my learning with it. Tough day sliding that and all my glass across the counter for Fujifilm. I forgot how big and heavy it was.
The comic sans type is making my eyes bleed (devil is on the details, man)... what an era! And let me say that the camera is still really impressive, all those dials lost in the rising of minimalism. The photos look amazing, like my old Nikon D3300. Great video, Omar.
Was a fantastic camera Workhorse
Perspective. Hilarious, spot-on perspective. Thanks, my man!
I loved this little throw back video! You were so in your element! XD
Omar is gifted with many talents, one them is humour 😂
Engineers: How many buttons & deals should the D700 have?
Nikon. YES.
Wow that bike. Brought back memories of my Sportster.
F3 Hp with MD-4, bought in 1984; d700 with Motor bought in 2018 and d750 bought in 2018 and not the least capture on. What a Photographic Fun, for me, it is!
Love it!!
That was my last camera before switching to Fuji. So many good memories.. and weight. Also, beautiful spring photos ..in December :)))
can we just appreciate how Omar recorded 6min of video in less than 1 min? What a mad lad !
Best video ever!
Great idea and well executed!! :)
Omar that was great 😂👌The images still look great 14 years later! LOL
Good stuff!
this is so fun
The photos from that camera are still beautiful.
Literally one of the greatest cameras ever made and Noone knows
Great review
Love this vid, think if you could go back in time with the knowledge you have, but couldnt tell anyone. I think I would be smirking all the time.
Legend
Very inspiring.
Commitment level
Here comes the voice of the new generation!
Funny man. The D700 was my money maker for weddings and overall probably the best camera I've owned. It just worked. But I sold it and the holy trinity set of lenses last year since I don't do professional photography anymore. My XT3 and X-T20 suit me very well these days and are way lighter, the photos are not as magical as with the D700 but they are good enough.
That was fun. Coming from someone old enough to remember getting excited about print coming up on my green monitor through the phone lines...yes, I am a dinosaur....
2008 is when I started getting more into photography. Ended up getting the D90 first and had it for about 2 years until I got the D700. Had been collecting full frame lenses anyway so was set. I still have it with a 50 f1.4. D. Used it side by side with Fujifilm until Fuji got serious and I stuck with Fujifilm ever since.
You've gotta recreate some old mirrorless reviews from the early 2010s! Back when everyone questioned and doubted that mirrorless would become the standard lol good times.
i still have mine, got it used something like 10 years ago, shutter is above 250k but it still working strong, the physical dials and switch are still a big must for me, the reason i went for an used xt2 instead of xt30
This was the last camera I had before I switched over to the Fuji XT1. Omar this video was a lot of fun, and very funny. It actually was a great camera, but after switching to Fuji I sold all my Nikon gear -2 Nikon lenses that I use with adapters on my Fujis.
3:27 this cracked me up. You should really consider going into comedy Omar xD
I died at the scene transitions.
