@Allroundmoviemaker hahahhaa
eeekk!!! Put a neck strap on!!
@Allroundmoviemaker your neighbours son wont even be able to lift the camera lol
I cannot tell you how much Nikon has screwed me over….
@ChrisInCali D700 has only 95% frame coverage & only .72x magnification, while 7D has 100% frame coverage & 1.0x magnification. You are wrong, the D700 viewfinder is only slightly larger than the 7D. It’s not a MASSIVE difference. Get your facts straight before spouting off..clueless one. Side note, the 7D has an excellent eyepoint of 22mm, D700 eyepoint an awful 18mm. Do you even know what that means, clueless one? I still prefer the D700, but I don’t like pompous brats like you.
@iKhrisPhoto The rumours say first quarter.
cant wait to go full frame this is the camera i’m looking to get but been hearing about an upgrade for the D700 coming out in 2011.. do you have any idea when in 2011 it will be coming out?
@sasktank
Wow, you are clueless about DSLRs. That view finder on the D700 is MASSIVE compared to the Canon 7D. The 7D’s viewfinder is 100% of a 1.6x crop sensor camera, the D700 is a full 35mm camera.
@dangomles a big giant lens
@zimaroulis18
7th birthday means hes 7 years old.
Great camera – want one…., however that viewfinder eyepiece reminds of a feature seen on blow up dolls (so I hear)! Thumbs up if you see what I mean!!??
@HARMONICA777 it seems to me, you have never seen a good movie filmed by a canon 7D or 5D mk2, then you would see how good they actually are.
Even shows like House MD has been filmed with a 5D mk2.
SO PLEASE, only speak when you know how it works and what it is capable of.
WHY do all the guys AND girls brag their DSLR camera can take HD video??? It is only for 5minutes anyway… Even mobile phones can do it but it is made for send and receive TXT , make and receive calls…….
If you want to make a proper movie then, buy a MOVIE camera that has HD …….
On top of a building with no camera neck strap. Glad I wasn’t standing below!
@sasktank Why do you care so much for the viewfinder?
the d700 is not 100% viewfinder — that sucks—//–buy the canon 7D instead—its more advanced in many ways
@Allroundmoviemaker was it d700?
@Allroundmoviemaker you need to go and STEAL IT
@Allroundmoviemaker
That really stings.
why buy a camera and just take pictures. buy a 9 in one and take picture, video, listen to mp3′s, mp4′s, voice recording, webcam, mass storage all in one!

Try the D300, D300s or 7D.
I got a D700 after a year of research and now I regret the time spent deciding. I wish I had gotten the D700 long time ago.
u know what, i think i have the hots for u Nigel Atherton.. yes i do. i also have the hots for the Leica M9.
great rev. thanks.
This Camera is Great!!!
I`m hoping for some good results in time, but it`ll take a lot of time and effort
Awesome, I am just learning and I remember I asked my model to look to the sun just for a moment… no need to tell you it was a total failure. Thanks Mark!

Great videos! Thank you! : )
Great videos! Thank you! : )
Wanted to point one thing out for those who are just getting started: The “fill flash” isn’t a type of flash. He means that he’s using his flash AS a fill flash, or fill light.
@ncummins80 You can get the same effect with the 430. In most cases, you’ll notice very little difference in the results you get from one compared to the other.
Hey mark is that the Speedlite 580ex ii? If so, can I get the same effect from the 430ex ii?
Nice Video Mark, Great Job, Beautiful Model
@mattblack77nz he is dieing
Don’t like using that pro body anymore?
@Macintoshtip 24-70 L
What lens are you using here Mark!
all about portrait ! very nice !
But fill flash pics are horrible!
@onlineahmeds did he die?
Dock that man a day’s pay for nappin’ on the job!
My favorite look is with the diffusion panel.
Great video as always. Gorgeous model makes it all the better
Sam = HOT!!!
Lens Hoods also make the lens look a lot better!
Are you using the 24-70mm?
and these tutorial are the best ive found on youtube
sam is super hot
The gold side of the reflector compliments the colour of persons with dark skin colour. Maybe in the future it would be good to cover this aspect.
thanks mark, this video really helped clear up some stuff for me in outdoor shooting
by the way, what was the size of the reflector that you were using?
i’m about to buy one and i’m not sure which size to get.
