For our trip to Japan, this was an awesome combo. Though a bit heavy to lug around all day, a good night’s sleep would fix that. The D700 was so responsive and, once set up properly, very quick and easy to change to the setting that you needed for each situation. The grip was very well-designed.

Some people don’t like the fact that this body has a built-in flash. But I love it. It is especially useful for fill-in flash to light up shadows.

Worth it in every way!
