Gone to the "Dark side" Nikon D700 with the 24-70 2.8

Unfortunately just been told it'll be 2-4 weeks.

Re: Woo and indeed Hoo!!

Very tempted by the 5D, but having spoken to lots of users of the D700 and (Honestly) a couple on the 5D, while an amazing camera, just felt the D700 suited me better.

johnaalex, I know, I know!!! Can't wait to have some to post! 2 to 4 weeks wait though....... Not known for my patience at the best of times!!!!

Re: Woo and indeed Hoo!!

That's fair enough - the D700 does sound pretty good from what I've heard!
