I bought the D70s, purely to see how good this digital thing is you understand!! Whilst I still prefer the look of film, the D70s (and doubtless the D70 too) is a very accomplished camera. Under sensible shooting conditions it is very difficult to fool the auto white balance and the auto exposure. And the output is sharp without resort to third party modification…..
If there is a downside, it is that JPEG output tends to block up shadows and blow highlights. I shoot raw and process through RawShooter Essentials and the results are excellent, albeit ‘digital’ looking.
