What are you talking about? The D800 is the successor to the D700. Nikon no longer produces the D700 and it is no longer included in its model lineup - it has been DISCONTINUED.

Not true. you may want to read the D700 and D800 specs.

From the DPReview article about the D800:

"3 1/2 years since Nikon released the D700 Nikon has updated much more than just the resolution. The D800 has a significantly more advanced feature set than its predecessor..."

--
You don't TAKE a photo, you MAKE a photo.

Nikon also stated, just after the D800 was released, that it was not the successor to the D700. That was in response to questions about the jump in resolution and other features that made folks question whether it was the upgrade. Wish I could find the quote. It was made just a few weeks after the D800 was released...

They may have been alluding to the D600 but that doesn't make too much sense either.
