I think this is definitely the case for switching to a D700; no video, great quality, easy to find in a store and the right price. If you come from a Canon 450D, you'll think you are in heaven.

That makes little sense in several ways...
The guy is considering a 5D because a 5D mk II is too expensive. A Nikon D700 will not be affordable then. It doesn't make sense
No video... since when is that a plus?
The D700 does not offer anything for him over the 5D that really matters, except the newer LCD (he has not mentioned live view).
Now if live view does matter, the 5D mk II offers a much better live view implementation too, plus the resolution of a D3x.
