Jeffyen, Thank you for the link.

Sorry for asking one more question.
Can I say that the the old AF-D lenses are more compatible to D700 than the new DX lenses (meaning no image size drop)?

I think generally, that's an OK way to think about the issue. If a lens is not labeled 'DX', then it can be used for film and digital full frame cameras, subject to the exclusions found at the Nikon link. The AF-D lens look good, no conditions attached. The only thing I worry about old lens is fungus.

You have clear my doubts. Thank you so much.
