Excellent highlight/shadow detail preservation, though, and options like D-Lighting, Contrast, and Saturation are a help when faced with tough conditions like these. Good exposure and color outdoors, though slightly high contrast at the default setting. Our test lighting for this shot is a mixture of 60 andġ00 watt household incandescent bulbs, a pretty yellow light source, butĪ very common one in typical home settings here in the U.S.

Most cameras expose this scene best with no exposure compensation, so the Nikon D700's performance amounted to a slight overexposure relative to the rest of the field. The Nikon D700 actually required a -0.3 EV decrease in exposure to get best results, as even the default exposure was just a bit too bright.

Skin tones and white values looked best with the 2,600K setting, as the Manual option was just a hint cool (though still nearly accurate). The 2,600K and Manual settings produced much more accurate results. The Nikon D700 isn't quite as expensive as the D3, but we still expect better performance from the auto white balance setting in a camera of its caliber.

Once again mirroring the behavior of the D3, the Nikon D700's auto white balance had a hard time with the very warm color balance of the household incandescent bulbs used in this shot, and its incandescent white balance setting is obviously tuned for the cooler 3,200K color of professional studio lighting. Positive exposure compensation required as well. Good color with the 2,600K and Manual white balances. See thumbnails of all test and gallery images

All in all, accurate and pleasing color in a compact pro body. With an average hue error after correction for saturation variation of only 5.19 delta-E units, the D700's hue accuracy is almost identical to that of the D3, and thus likewise closer to technically accurate than many DSLRs on the market. Problematic is on Caucasian skin tones, as it's very easy for these "memoryĬolors" to be seen as too bright, too pink, too yellow, etc. (Here, too, the D700's saturation adjustment may come into play for some users, letting them knock down the color on skin tones a little, if they find the default rendering a bit too saturated for their personal tastes.) Where oversaturation is most Still, the results looked natural, well within what we'd consider an acceptable range. Again in keeping with what we saw on the D3, the Nikon D700 rendered skin tones just slightly warm/pink. Professional models tend to be more restrained in their color rendering. This is simply because most people like their color a bit brighter than life. Most consumer digital cameras produce color that's more highly saturated (more intense) than found in the original subjects. If you'd like a bit brighter-looking color, it's easy enough to dial in a bit more saturation in the D700's Picture Styles menu the steps there are a bit bigger than we'd optimally like to see, but the +1 saturation setting should please most people looking for slightly brighter color, without going too far. The net effect is pleasing and accurate color, actually somewhat more in keeping with the demands of professional users than that of the D3. Other than reds and blues then, the Nikon D700's color saturation levels are almost dead neutral across much of the spectrum. It oversaturates some blues and reds a bit, but holds dark greens and rich oranges in check more than the D3 does, dropping its average saturation level to 109 percent vs 113.8 percent for the D3. As you might expect (they use the same sensor chip), the Nikon D700's color handling is very similar to that of its big brother, the D3. Thus, hue-accurate, highly saturated colors appear as lines radiating from the center. Hue changes as you travel around the center. More saturated colors are located towards the periphery of the graph. In the diagram above, the squares show the original color, and the circles show the color that the camera captured. Slight oversaturation of strong red and blue tones, but better than average accuracy and pleasing color overall.
