I just shot an event with 2 D600 bodies, the type of job I would give to the D700, and I gotta say, I didn't miss my D700 bodies at all.
The D700 is an awesome camera that has served me extremely well, and I am keeping one of my bodies. Much to my relief, I have learned that D700 and D600 color rendition is extremely close, so the two can partner side-by-side in a job without requiring heroic PP color-matching. Still, I think a lot of what transpires here and elsewhere in defense of the D700 over the D600 is rationalization to justify sticking with the older body over other choices.
Thanks for your input.
Wish the D600 had the same AF system as the D700. May not be an issue with most of the shooting that I do. I tend to use single point AF (center) and recompose techique. Also, plan to keep the D300 expressly for those times I do sports events. Couple the D300 with a MB-D10 and you have just about the perfect action camera with that focus array covering so much of the sensor.
The dual slots are a nice feature. I use pro grade cards when I am shooting important events and have never had a failure (learned that lesson the hard way). Only problem is I don't have a lot of pro grade SD flash. Still, having dual slots provides insurance as well as new work flows. Assume you direct can jpgs to one and RAW to the other.
I can see now that it is improvements in IQ that I am hoping to realize the most. If it doesn't have that then there is little reason to retire the D700.
