chrisletts's Review of Nikon D70
10th Aug 2006
Overall Rating
- Value for money
Value, decent quality.
Bad Points
Lenses not as good as my previous camera.
Dirt problems
No remote 'open shutter' lock for long exposures.
General Comments
In general my Nikon D70 is excellent for its price, however within 6 months I have dirt on the CCD which refuses to budge even with a pro air-blower. Yes I do interchange lenses (standard/telephoto), but I'm always careful doing it and wouldn't have expected dirt to get in that way so quickly. Also I take some Astronomical shots, and would have liked a remote that locks the shutter open.

I've now upgraded to a D200 - interesting since at first the pics didn't seem as good as my D70, but the D200 requires more careful setup and once you get the hang of it it cannot be beaten AND no dirt on the CCD yet !!!
