[Leica] D700

Yes, the D700 is very popular and a very capable camera, but it is just not 
for me.

I noticed my two day old D700 was nosier than my previous camera a D200 but
I seem to have gotten used to it real quick along with all the little
birdies and people I've shot with it so far none of whom have flown away.
This pronounced click has not gotten in the way of the  photography by the
tens of thousands of top pros who use this camera every day and are not
arrested with disturbing the peace. And the even more tens of thousands of
top pros who use Canons seem ok with the quality they're getting instead of
a cropped camera made 5.5 years ago for 2000 people.
Now just became one is the only one in a large crowd of a huge consensus
with a differing opinion doesn't mean one is wrong.  But it might help if
one had some definite stuff to back up ones opinion.
