Review on πŸ“· Nikon D70S 6.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) - Professional Photography Equipment by Jason Ampongan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If the joy of photography is important to you, you will love it. Buy a compact camera for pictures. If you're a pro, go newer.

Takes me back to the movie days. There's 6MP and there's "6MP". It has an APS-C sensor, so it's probably the best 6MP out there. Works with all my lenses, old film lenses and manual lenses. Read on to see if yours works. With older lenses without autofocus you have to work in manual mode, but the focus indicator still works (set AP with the lens ring and shutter speed with the right front wheel). I have a photo app on my iPhone that acts as a light meter and recommends settings. This works for me. Of course, the AF lens can work in auto mode, etc. I like its feel and weight. I am very happy.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Sad packaging
