My D700 & D300 will still get a good thrashing as they do now for my other passion, Military Aviation photography.

I suggest 25MB is best buy. I guess Nikon D4 is about best buy. I have use D2X and D7000 are still very very good images up to 36 x 20………….

low light: stop being fixated on the mp count. although D800 has 3x as many pixels, its actual pixel size is 60% that of the D700′s. the low pass filter has also been re-engineered and improved, reducing light loss to the sensor. if you factor in improvements in sensor technology (such as gapless micro lens design) since the D700 was introduced, and the new image processor, i have no problem believing the D800′s low light/high iso is as good as, if not better than, D700.

The filter is made without the anti-aliasing properties.

to maybe 18?) and a wider ISO range because we shoot low-light events
like sports, concerts and weddings (the kind of work that made the D700
the best out there) are left scratching our heads.”

That camera is called D4. Yes it costs more… but that is how they segment the market now, just like Canon.

We have no idea if Nikon plans to make a product (full-frame sensor) that addresses any of this in the future.
