The new Nikon D70s and Nikkor AF-S DX f/3.5-f4.5/18-70mm G IF-ED Zoom

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2005
The Bottom Line: The Bottom Line: The new Nikon D70s -- If it ain?t broke ya? don?t need to fix it
Review: Canon's EOS D350/Digital Rebel XT was a revolutionary re-design of the original Rebel, but Nikon's new D70s is more an evolutionary update of the dLSR that POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHY magazine chose as it's CAMERA OF THE YEAR in 2004. At first glance the...

Nikon lens compatibility

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2006
Review: Just an addendum to a previous comment on using non auto-focus Nikon lenses. After experimenting with my 55mm Nikkor micro, I tried my 24mm f2.8 that I thought would have to shelve for use in the Nikon d70s, based upon feedback received to the...

Digital SLR for serious photogs: Nikon gets it RIGHT

Date of Review:  May 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: GREAT balance, comfortable handling, stunning images.
Review: This is a nearly perfect digital SLR -- for those who've used Nikon 35MM SLR gear in the past, it handles and fits like a GLOVE.

Your old AF Nikkor lenses will mate perfectly with the onboard electronics. The new G lenses (like the zoom...

Just buy it! Best buy in past 5 years, maybe longer!

Date of Review:  Nov 10, 2006
The Bottom Line: Go for the name brand for once in your life, and enjoy the choice. Buy the Nikon and enjoy the rush! It really is worth it!
Review: I had the N80 - but couldn't remember how I got the nice pics between when I shot them, and when I got them developed. Dropped a G on the D70 because my old lens were compatible. WOW! If your spouse complains - tough! Buy it - It's great - Shoot,...

This camera made me turn to digital photography

Date of Review:  Feb 1, 2006
The Bottom Line: Most versatile camera. Fun to use. Leaves no photographic wishes unanswered.
Review: The other reviews pretty much covered the technical specifications of this camera, so I am not going to bother reviewing those. I am not much of a numbers person anyway -- creativity is more my thing when it comes to photography.
I have used...

I take it everywhere.

Date of Review:  Mar 8, 2007
Review: I finally upgraded to this entry-level digital slr and I am very glad I chose Nikon.
This camera can do it all. Sure it's got auto-mode but this baby is for those who want control. You can control aperture, shutter speed, or both in manual. You...

Best Camera we've owned

Date of Review:  Feb 28, 2009
The Bottom Line: This is a great camera, even if it is an older model.  Provides a lot of flexibility, yet, in the auto mode, it is nearly a point and click camera.
Review: As our baby daughter was becoming more mobile, we quickly realized that the run-of-the-mill digital cameras were not up to the task of catching her in action.  Most of them have to much latency between when you push the shutter release button until...

Not only Land Photos - Underwater too!

Date of Review:  Dec 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a professional level DSLR at an affordable price, be assured that the D70 will serve you well if you choose to take it underwater!
Review: Don't let the price fool you: This is a camera that suits everyone between the beginners to photography right up until Professional/Commercial photographers!

As other reviews have covered the usage of this camera setup on land very well, I...

This Camera Dies out of a Sudden

Date of Review:  May 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: I do not recommend this product because of the defect outlined in my description. Or I would suggest getting an independent warranty on the product.
Review: I am a Canadian Nikon user. I had this camera over a year, without any problem. And one day, I was on a road trip to New Jersey with my kids to visit my cousin. Everybody was happy and we wanted to take some pictures. But all of a sudden, the camera...

Great Camera

Date of Review:  Apr 6, 2005
Review: After searching and thinking long and hard about which digital camera to go with I finally decided on the D70. I was considering the Canon Digital Rebel because of good experiences with Canon point and shot digital cameras and their electronics but...
