As you can see, each of these cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The D700 because of its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Nikon D700 will give greater detail having its extra 5 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more modern D700 should have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
