<p>I've had the same problem with my D700 and two of my SB-700 flashes. I thought it was my first SB-700, so I bought a second one, thinking I had a lemon or it had to be repaired. When the newer flash acted the same way, I realized it had to be the camera. A colleague of mine said he had the same problems with his D700 before going over to the dark side (i.e. he shoots Canon now...), and after reading a number of testimonials here, it sounds like this is a model defect.<br>
Fortunately my D700 is under warranty for another 2 weeks, so I'm dropping it off today to get it serviced. I'll post here again with an update when I get my camera back.</p>
