I actually use DNG converter for my D700 raw files - It is a free download from Adobe, and then use the dng file in PS2 - the dng file acts exactly as it would if it were a raw file.

TRIAL VERSIONS??? My D300 came with a full copy of Capture NX. I think d-d-photographics has the Capture NX2 for sale. If all else fails try giving Nikon Aust a call.

D700 raw images can be opened in Photoshop CS3, and worked on, to give good results........

i dont think thats right, you should be able to open d700 images in cs3. make sure your software, (especially ACR), is fully updated.
