Review of Nikon D70s by roddersontheradio

Advantages: Solid, professional class images; fast
Disadvantages: Not overly simple to use; small LCD screen; auto settings can disappoint

No questioning the Nikon quality..it's robust and solid like it's reputation but not the best buy in it's class for the amateur. I should state at this stage that I'm no professional although I do use the camera to back up my magazine articles so I hope you'll find my views useful. The D70s is fast and produces great images but you need a good understanding of light and exposure to get the best out of it. To this end I would recommend weaning yourself ...
...The D70 is powered by Nikon EN-EL3 Lithium-Ion battery pack which lasts for ages but note, when it goes, it gives you very little warning so I always carry my charger with me for quick hotel charging. If you spend ages in the field, my advice would be to buy a spare battery. In short, the D70s is not the simplest of cameras to use; it does have pre set exposures and a fully automatic mode but these can disappoint. However, if you know your stuff ... Read review

Review of Nikon D70s by daveeee

Advantages: resolution clarity speed controls menu size durability
Disadvantages: weight software

...original d70 made its appearance Nikon has made several improvements to make the d70s - and it shows. An excellent lcd on the rear, larger viewfinder and better metering all make this a great camera - even years after its initial release. Its images are sharp, contrasty, and - importantly - completely 'customizable'; want to point-and-shoot with it? Sure, jpeg-fine-high contrast & sharpening. Want complete control? Shoot raw and post-process, changing ...
...most of Nikon's cameras - Nikon View just isn't anywhere good enough for modern use, and Capture 4.4 (supplied, Trial version) is seriously slow on even the most recent machines. Capture NX is out now, but reviews are mixed. Photoshop (Elements) or Picasa might be more suitable. Accessories Flash (speedlight), grips, lenses, hoods, filters, lcd covers, viewfinder hoods - the list is endless. If shooting raw, a 1GB cf memory card is the minimum ... Read review

The D70s features an advanced AF system; its exceptional subject acquisition, focus tracking and focus precision functions ensure that your action shots will be even crisper and sharper. Built-in i-TTL Speedlight automatically pops up when lighting is inadequate and provides fill flash when necessary. Extra wide peripheral illumination supports lenses up to 18mm, for beautiful wide angle shots. The large 2.0-inch LCD monitor is easy to view and use, with plain-language menus and help dialogs presented clearly. For better results when shooting close-ups and long exposures, use the optional Remote Cord (MC-DC1). Add to all of this the incredible performance of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery, powering up to 2500 shots per charge, and you have a superb digital SLR camera, always ready for action.

The Nikon D300 will currently set you back around £1000 in the UK, and that's without the glass on the front. My review here might seem technical to some, but that's not an amount of money most people part with lightly. I don't apologise for putting some more
