Hi JK
I thought that might have been the case with Robert and the D700.
I agree a camera must feel right or no matter how much money it cost it will be left in the bag and one that feels good will go with you.
I am not one that needs the latest an greatest hi tech stuff, most of it is stuff I will never use. I am not into video, I bought a Canon super 8mm camcorder years ago used it a couple of times and years later found it in a drawer dead.
That is what I like about the D700 just a great camera.
If it feel any where like my D200 it will be mine, the D200 is like an old pair of slippers that are worn out ,but they are so comfortable you just can't stand to part with them. I have a pair like that on right now and the D200 is on the desk near by in my photo lab, radio shack, computer room, man cave.
When I started looking I thought I wanted something lighter, since then I have been out with the D200 a couple of times an when I am out the weight doesn't seem to be an issue Then I discovered the D700 and I really want that camera there is only one small problem it will be a few days before I can get to the store and they are very popular now I fear someone will find it before I can rescue it
I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and comments as always you are willing to help with experience and information so THANKS AGAIN YA"ALL

Ed
