Nikon D70 Reviews

i believe this camera was an excellent buy, i bought it 12 months ago when i first started my college course in photography and has served me very well for a first camera. it has a very easy to use design, which is easy to hold with the left hand while the right hand controls all the funstions. i especially like the little screen on top of the ...  Read the complete review

My D70s proved a brilliant successor to my old F80 35mm. With controls and features as similar as they can be on these two cameras. Its weight and body size are not in the league of the most recent SLR's, neither is the processor as fast or the number of megapixels as high. However the focus and exposure controls are faultless for this class of ...  Read the complete review

I got my Nikon D70 when my much loved Canon SLR celluloid camera finally died after 10 years loyal service. I wasn't sure at first about if it was really what i wanted, as i have a young family and having an extra bag to carry around a camera in wasn't really what I needed.

This camera is a beauty! I got one early this year and can not leave it alone. The settings speak for themselves, and don't be scared to use them. Auto does do a great job if unsure.

The D70 allows you to have a very simple approach to photography, with a complete portfolio of automatic settings available as standard. You can simply "point and shoot" ...  Read the complete review

Yes these new digital SLRs are the mutts nuts. You get to see your pics in 3 seconds. Wow! But try opening a digital file in 10 years time and see where it gets you. My guess is you'll be wondering what you did wrong when you saved your RAW file to CD. I'll tell you what went wrong. Operating system improved as did all that other Photoshop ...  Read the complete review

UPDATE Please note that this review relates to the Nikon D70 which at the time of originally writing, was the current model; it having now been superceded by the D70s. There are very few differences, in fact the only 'physical' difference is a slightly larger viewing screen at the back. The rest of the changes are in the software, ...  Read the complete review

Digital SLRs (digital cameras with interchangable lenes) have always had superior image quality compared to consumer "pocket" digital cameras. But as Digital SLRs are proffessional cameras they tended to have professional prices to! The D70 is Nikons attempt to make Digital SLRs mroe affordable - and havent they done ...  Read the complete review

And Birthday, Easter, Mothers day, Fathers Day etc. Yes the Nikon D70 is a serious piece of kit, and we have been after one for ages. The delay was not restricted solely by price, as there is a serious shortage of these cameras available in the UK (possibly world wide) and if you are lucky ...  Read the complete review
