I'm SOOO glad I came across this thread! I bought a barely used D700 about 3 months ago, but due to it's weight, I actually have it listed for sale here.
I've been so conflicted about it, since I LOVE the photos I get from it! I'm a new hobbyiest photographer. Originally from the film/stone age (about 140 years ago) and this camera takes photos like I remember them! ; )
I am definitely leaning towards keeping it now. I had it out again today and got some stunning floral shots...the color and the sharpness. Wow!
However, my hand and my forearm were so sore when I finished shooting. I carry it on a sling strap and am just not a monopod/tripod person...I do a lot of bending down to get close and shoot from different angles.
Can anyone recommend a solution to my problem?
Here's a couple from today and my favorite recent beach shot
