Nikon D700 dishes up digital photo nirvana

A point and click camera can only take you so far – if you want to take your photography to the next level then you’ll need an slick digital SLR camera. With the ability to tweak almost any aspect of the photo, you’ll be able to get exactly the look you’re aiming for, rather than what the camera thinks is best.

For big screen results, the Nikon D700 can take snaps up to 12.1 megapixel so you’ll be able to blow them up big without losing quality. With the ability to shoot at a speedy 8fps you’ll never miss the shot and its multi-point autofocus system will keep everything pin sharp.

Top talents
Helping hand
While you can take full control, you’ve still got advanced features such as Active D-Lighting to help shooting in difficult lighting conditions.

Twin view
With two live view modes, you can see exactly what the camera is looking at on the LCD, for flexible framing options.

High resolution screen
Nikon hasn’t just packed the pixels into the sensor – even the 3-inch LCD stretches to VGA resolution and its 170 degree viewing angle makes it easy to see.

Best price: £1699.99 on 20 August 2008
