Body sizes are: (Wide x High x Deep)
D7000 132 x 105 x 77mm
D7100 136 x 107 x 76mm
D70 140 x 111 x 78mm
D600 141 x 113 x 82mm
D300s 147 x 114 x 74mm
D700 147 x 123 x 77mm
D800 146 x 123 x 81.5mm
D3 160 x 157 x 88mm
D4 160 x 157 x 91mm
D600 is close to the D300 size except that it is a little less wide but much deeper (front to back), the height is actually less than the D300s which is unusual.
For my underwater camera I want a small compact DSLR but that compactness does not need to be in the width as long as it is less than 148mm wide but in the height (less than or equal to 113mm) and depth (less than or equal to 78mm).
The FX cameras tend to be deeper due to their larger larger mirror box (I assume) but the D600 nearly gets there but kills me with the extra depth of 4mm over for my needs in an underwater camera.
Interesting. I wouldn't have put the D300 and D70 so close in size or the D600 for that matter.
