[MeineKleineWaffe]

When did you buy it?

[salo200305]

wow Oh my Gosh this is the camera of my dream nikon d700 :)!!

[zaaklcx]

Instead of the 8 aa batterys you can use an en-el4(a) battery to obtain the same amout of fps. cheers

[stubones]

Can the next video be of you dropping the D300 from a building and then doing a shoot with it? :)

[estrm]

d7000 vs d700 ?

[mateopumba747]

@estrm d700 is a much more "professional camera, its the 2nd or third best camera from nikon, it has full frame sensor, on the other hand the d700 is an intro dslr

Hi Mr Dom. What focusingmode are you using for those snowboarding photos? I mean 51-3D, 51-point, 21-point or 9-point dynamic, with or without lock-on in AF-C?

[Dombowerphoto]

@70Perra just use wide angle get hyperfocal distance and lock in.

[Defictionalize]

Dom those snowboarding pictures are amazing, how on earth do you do that

[Dombowerphoto]

@Defictionalize the details are in my book, but i have also done a video on how to edit the photos once taken, just type in snowboarding or skiing into the search bar on my channel

[elsiephysio]

You can change out the battery cover of the MB-10 with a Nikon BL-3 battery chamber cover; this way you can use the larger Nikon EN-EL4a lithium battery (11.1v 2500mAH) instead of AA's and the smaller Nikon EN-EL3e battery (7.4v 1500mAH).

[w0ble]

You should mention that D700 can continue shooting 8fps (with battery pack) even in 14-bit RAW mode. Whereas D300 will slow down to ~3fps. Huge deal if one shoots RAW, as one should.

[ErezShory]

I want to upgrade to FF from my d300s but would wait for the d800 to get out after which the prices for the 700 would drop dramatically

[jh3835]

how do you feel about d3 or d3s

[TheMichaelMedia]

What's better Nikon D7000 or Canon 7D. Or is it personal preference?

[34TR3m]

@TheMichaelMedia personal preference, as always when it comes to Nikon vs Canon questions ;) If someone tells you the opposite, he or she is a fanboy/girl!

[AtOregon]

I sold D7000 to buy D700 and I'm liking it alot. Some people will say D7000 matches D700, I just don't see it. Even though it is older camera, but having full frame is just something else. My pictures are sharper than ever when viewed at 100%.

[QuarterCrawl]

Awesome dom! once again,Hell im still using my D-80 and was waiting until next year for my D7000.But you got me on this one D-700 all the way.........Thanx

[JasonLaurain]

oooooohhh there it goes ! lol

[krc7878]

love the videos by the way keep it up...!

[krc7878]

does making the face help while your shooting 8fps? :)

[ny1fanta]

would you say, wait for d800 or get an used d700.

[Dombowerphoto]

@ny1fanta I would say get the Canon 5d mark 2

[Spaeckli]

@Dombowerphoto oh really? O.o???

I'm shocked!!!

[MK4GTI20VT]

@Dombowerphoto Noooooo!

[bassmanTV]

@Dombowerphoto but the mk 3 is on the way as well^^

[yooist]

@Dombowerphoto why do you prefer 5d mrk 2 over the d700 or the possible d800?

[Dombowerphoto]

@yooist if i didnt have lots of nikon stuff i would get the canon, it has video, i like video. but if your not into video and you want faster fps etc then get the nikon

[yooist]

@Dombowerphoto  thanks Dom

[wertuiking]

@Dombowerphoto 5d mark 2 have a decent sensor with very good color. however the autofocus kinds sucks. so depend on his need. right?

[34TR3m]

@wertuiking it actually doesn't suck! A lot of people are able to take pictures with it. Of course the D700 has better Autofocus in comparison no doubt at all, but a lot of people make it look like with the 5d mk ii you could only take pictures in manual focus....

[dlasusa]

@ny1fanta - if your current camera does what YOU need, don't buy a new body at all (or at least wait for the D800). If the D700 doesn't something you NEED that your current body won't, buy the D700. If you need/want video...and want to buy all new lenses...buy a Canon 5d2.

[krolltan]

@ny1fanta I would say get a used D700 if you want to shoot without flash in lowlight situations. I had a 5D Mark II for a couple of weeks in june, and pictures taken with ISO higher than 800-1600 generates so much noise that the pictures will be useless in my opinion. My D3s is much better then any Canon's in regards of noise. I bought the 5D II because the store I prefer were out of stock of the D700.

[1SNTCC]

@ny1fanta wait for d800

[meatwad4900]

Nice to see the D700 still stacks up nicely, even against the brand new cameras coming out these days. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

[galaxiedance]

Great Camera Dom! You'll use it the way it was meant to be used.. I just FINALLY picked up my D7000 today, so I can learn along with you :) Great Videos Dom, a couple are a little strange :) but that's cool... Don't change!! :)

[manualwarr]

I am looking for this one! Will buy the d700 but some feedback from you will be much appreciated. Cheers

[110B557]

Love listening to your videos. Just wanted to let you know and to say thanks.

[IsaacMaganaMusic]

I have a question, are the photos from the full-sensor camera bigger than the photos from a crop sensor? Are the photos from the D700 bigger and with more detail than the photos from the D7000 that is 16MP but it has a crop sensor?

[mehmetnayal]

1st :)

[skidgalning]

@mehmetnayal 1st to comment last to get laid.
