Description

The Nikon D700 is one of the most beloved cameras in digital history, often cited as the "baby D3." It was Nikon's second full-frame DSLR, packing the professional 12.1MP sensor of the flagship D3 into a more compact, weather-sealed body similar to the D300. It earned legendary status for its exceptional low-light performance and "film-like" rendering, which many enthusiasts still prefer today. This unit shows clear evidence of a hard life—significant "brassing" on the baseplate and corners, dust in the crevices, and a BM-9 monitor cover—marking it as a true survivor of the professional photography era. Like the other Nikons in this collection, it is currently hosting a DX-format lens, which it would handle via an automatic 5MP crop mode.
