The specs show the camera to be a worthy model with the Nikon name. I wouldn't go to say they've pushed boundaries with this camera, but it's still a step in the right direction.
The D3 and D300 have helped Nikon regain the number one spot with over 50% share of the market. They are already 20% ahead of forecasts for this year so hopefully the D700 will help them maintain this position.
If nothing else it makes the Nikon FX format more affordable and available for the masses. With an RRP of £1999.99 (body only) it still keeps the D3 in the top pro league at £800 more.
Looking at the numbering of the camera, it looks like Nikon are releasing this model as a go between for the D300 and the D3 which isn't a bad thing. After all, years ago Canon released the EOS 50e because photographers wanted eye control focus from the EOS 5 but didn't want to pay the same price.
The Nikon D700 appears to be a similar release with features of the D3 but in a somewhat clipped format. It shows that Nikon are listening to the users and developing gear to suit what people want which is something that Nikon are, quite rightly, very proud of.
