Originally posted by ltdstar I'm thinking of getting one of these, most probably used....(snip)
I would love to get some feedbacks from those that own any of these bodies and comparison to K20D with respect to low light focusing. Or if you have some other body that you would recommend, let me have it.
Thanks in advance...
I've had a D700 for about half a year now, had a K10d, K20d before. The D700 is superior in low light focus situations. It locks autofocus with my 85/1.4 at ISO6400, 1/30th sec, wide open. AF sensors are reliable as long as they are cross-type (not all 51 points are). AF tracking is excellent.
Put simply: you'll rarely MF the D700 because the AF isn't cutting it.
I haven't owned any of the Canon models you asked about, so I can't comment. Just sharing my experience with the D700 as requested.
