They have 3 on display at the Nikon forum in West Shinjuku. It feels very solid, has a nice weight, view finder has lines in it, but its not annoying or anything. I was considering selling my D3 for a lighter FX camera, but... its just not the same. This is wierd coming from a street photographer, but it just doesnt feel as robust as Im used to. Its responsive and all, but something isnt the same. I cant put my finger on it but Ill be keeping the D3 for now. I'll play with the camera again this Sat and see if any options/feelings change. FWIW, if the 5D felt like the D700s did tonight when I tried out the Canon almost a year ago, I would have kept the 5D. Felt like its worth the money (but not selling my D3...yet). -- Doyle http://www.flickr.com/photos/10659368@N03/ http://www.customminds.com/photos/d/1484-2/Self+Portrait.jpg
