Nikon D800

I've been keeping it around, but I really don't need it with the D810 in the bag. It should move on to a good home.

Fewer than 13,000 actuations and in excellent condition. It has all of its bits, including the gold box. I am including a brand new Watson battery, instead of the original used Nikon one.

It's an awesome camera. The resolution and richness of the images can't be beat. Everyone should have one

$1,500. Will ship.

LOL....

You're killing me...
I would love to entertain this, but... I still am plenty satisfied with your old D700 - not to mention have not done much with really using its capabilities.

But... Ummm....
Interesting possibilities....

They are actually pretty complementary cameras to own together

I have some regrets about letting that one go...

What's especially cool about the high resolution D800 is that if you shoot wide open enough, you can crop from almost anywhere in the image to create a new composition. So, amazing flexibility even after the capture.

it's revelatory. The only thing that beats it--slightly and for a lot more money--is the D810.

OK - sold....

Between stereo equipment, tools, cars... and camera's... The D800 looks to good to pass by.
I have the nice lenses to go with it - so, would make a good combo.
The reviews are really tremendous.

I will probably let the D700 go... but not right away.

Talk soon.
