List price is list price. Who would pay list price today for a D300 or a D700? Why pay list today, & not shop around?

Lets use for example B&H today:


Nikon D300 SLR Digital Camera (Camera Body) more info

MFR #25432 • B&H #NID300 Free Shipping

Our Price:
$1,599.95
Sub Total:
$1,599.95


Nikon D700 SLR Digital Camera (Camera Body) more info

MFR #25444 • B&H #NID700 Free Shipping

Our Price:
$2,349.95
Sub Total:
$2,349.95

and as you know K-7 is still $1,299 unless you do a bing.com search and get discount of about $103 back in 60 days. Then again you could use bing.com to discount the prices of D300s, D300 & D700 too.

Lets see, 8% off a D300s at $1799 is $144 off, so its $1655,
....8% off $1599 D300 is -123= $1476
& 8% off $2349 D700 is -188=$2161

versus K-7 is $1299-104=$1195

I'd say the main benefit to buying any of the three above nikon bodies is to be able use any nikon made lens since 1977.

Kinda like why I own a pentax dslr, to be able to use Pentax lenses I already owned.

Same reason I own D700, to use Nikon lenses I own.

Same reason I own 5D, to use Canon lenses I own.
