Thanks eaglewolf and Avi B
To clarify I wouldn't be getting rid of my Canon outfit, alot depends on the new 5D really. I would happily run both Canon and Nikon outfits if the D700 worked out, in fact I wish I had started slowly building dual systems years ago (between 1990 and earlier this decade I was exclusively with Nikon, but offloaded alot of kit when I was temporarily short of money, and I was very, very unhappy with my D70 and Nikon's then apparent refusal to commit to full frame) - now digital appears to be maturing a little I want to consolidate and expand my kit again.
If I do get the D700 I already have 2 Nikkors, and would only need to get a cheap Nikkor 50mm and the 85mm f1.8 to be up and running with a viable small Nikon outfit. If I got the D700 I would save for a year or two for the Nikkor 12-24 G, a lens I greatly admire and which Canon cannot equal.
Or I might just get the Canon 5D replacement, depends how good it is, but I am more interested in low light performance than gross megapixels. That's why I have posted this query, to find out how good the D700 is at night. I would be perfectly happy to come home to Nikon.
Cheers.
