Jayanand,

I do not like the weight, but I also do not like my cameras sounding like a 
canon going off.  The D700 would scare a heard of buffalo off.  The D3 is no 
heavier than the DMR, and a whole lot quieter than the D700.  Since I use my 
DMR for longer lenses anyway, weight is not really a factor.  The D700 is a 
nice camera, but they could have made it a bit quieter.

Cheers,
Gene

Gene,
Your exercise of choice is weightlifting? (-:
