I have to say I use the D700 for work mainly as I do interior and exterior architectural shots for a number of clients, as well as my own real estate business. I usually do HDR shots for them and find the quality of Files great. The clients mainly use for Internet and some small photo sizes. I've tried the M9 with this work and using the bracketing feature and it's ok but to me does not seem as easy or quick to use for setup as the D700. However for personal shots of quality and large printing I only use the M9 and am extremely pleased with that camera. I love that it's small, quiet and can be around your neck hidden under a light jacket. The quality of the files and glass has a quality of its own without much after processing compared to the D700.
