Conclusion
After all of this talk, is the Nikon D70 up to snuff? I would say so. The clever design, ease of use, portability, and top-of-the-line features make the Nikon D70 hard to beat in today’s market. As Nikon’s first sub-$1000 digital SLR camera, the Nikon D70 has been streamlined to reach a more general audience in terms of price and accessibility. Adding to an already respectable line of Nikon cameras, the Nikon D70 is keeping up with its predecessors and challenging the competition in a big way. I would recommend the Nikon D70 to anyone from entry level photographers looking for a significant camera, to higher-end prosumers in the market for a versatile and solid camera purchase. If you're looking for a digital SLR that produces the absolute best image results at the lowest price, but doesn't give you as many options, I would suggest checking out the Canon EOS Digital Rebel. It's a smart little camera that is aimed to impress. However, the Nikon D70 will wow you with its speed, flexibility, and sleek appeal, and it's guaranteed to show you a good time. If you haven’t done so already, I would check this camera out. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
