The only camera I know of that's less than full frame but costs more than
its brother full frame is the Canon 1d Mark ...IV? what ever the mark. It's
a 1.3 crop camera and costs I think $5K or thereabouts. A lot more than
aforementioned FF Canon 5d Mark II.

And yes, for my money, the D700 (from my research I should say, rather than
from my experience) is the best camera $2400 can buy.
