Nikon claims that the IQ is not effected. But I doubt that (not that I pixel peeped and saw differences on screen, yet). But on the D700, the uncomressed option produces ~22-24MB files, while the "lossless compressed" produces ~10-12MB. And one more remark: the "uncompressed" option is only available in pro / prosumer bodies.

A ratio of 22/10 is not even a trace of evidence that this may be lossy. The existence only in the higher end body may just mean that the algorithm is expensive in terms of processing and thus in terms of camera cost.
