The new gear I can’t afford

Scott Kelby put up his review of the new Nikon D700. He calls it more of a field guide, as it is less technical than say dpreview, but more, this is what I like/don’t like. This camera at $3000 body only is way off the charts on my radar. The other thing that has people excited about the camera, but makes it an absolute no (as if it wasn’t already) is that it is a full frame camera. The Nikon D3 (also a full frame) goes for $5000. The cheapo lenses that I try to buy are made for the DX crop sensor, and don’t really work with the full frame cameras. They work, but the 12 Mpixel camera becomes a 5 Mpixel one. You would need to shell out for the “real” Nikon lenses in the $1500+ category. This just gets me more excited about the (hopefully soon) upcoming D90. Come on new camera!
