Got My D700

I got my D700 from Calumet on Saturday. It is a HUGE leap from the D70. Nothing but great image quality and fun shooting so far. The FX sensor is exactly what I have been waiting for. The bad news is, neither Photoshop nor Aperture can read the RAW files. Looks like I gotta wait for some updates before I can really go crazy. Meanwhile, I have been shooting RAW and JPG together and just use the JPG for viewing and playing. I also posted my first D700 photo on my photoblog. I will be posting larger images now; partly because of the larger format, but also because many of us are getting larger and larger LCD screens that can handle larger images.

    Solution is to convert the RAW files to Adobe’s DNG. I look forward to seeing the next level of excellence.

    I look forward to seeing the results. I’m still lumbering along with my D70s, and will probably upgrade to a D300 later this year, but to be honest I have the most fun with my Rolleiflex.

    Congrats — I’m very jealous, but hoping to upgrade my D70s to a 700 in the spring. Looking forward to seeing some shots from it here.
