it will work. But if you have a DX-lens it will be vignetting a LOT


Why is that? And they are.

Id really prefer to stick with Nikon, especially if I can use the lenses I already have. Plus getting a 5d II is just so..trendy.

probably because the DX lenses are made for crop factor so they will only produce the desired overall quality in the middle section, the part that is used on a cropfactor camera.
So, if you use this one a full frame, the outsides (which you wont see on a cropfactor camera) will look pretty bad compared to a lens that is designed for a full frame camera.
The other way around works very good obviously.

Trendy? The fuck? This is not an microsoft v apple, hipster debate. We're talking about clearly superior equipment here.
You can sell your overpriced Nikon junk and buy the Canon equivalent.

Makes sense. That would be kind of cool to have on hand though for sure.

D3/D3s.

People were used to riding horses and liked doing so until the car became affordable. UMAD?

Simply not.
The 5d mark ii image quality is way better than the d700 one.
I can tell because i had a nikon d300s and i moved to 5d mark ii(after having sold all my nikon stuff, and i had plenty)rather than moving to the d700.

As omar says, if you want a better camera than the 5d mark ii get the d3s/x (good luck with the prices).

Just got the batteries for my Nikon N70 btw, trololol.

Just got finished reading this site (I know youll love it onepage) and it sounds to me like the d700 and 5d are comparable. He compares the D3s to the 1Ds Mark III.
