Nikon D70
2008-01-12
Patrick just got a sweet new camera, the Nikon D300, and he's looking to sell his old Nikon D70 so I'm evaluating it for a couple weeks to see if I like it. It's a nice intro-level digital SLR camera. I've been thinking of buying one for a while because I don't like how restrictive my point and shoot is (even though it is one of the most manual friendly point and shoot cameras around). I also like that DSLRs let you take photos in "RAW" format, allowing you maximum control over the final image and complete retention of all data. Anyway, I've been playing with it tonight and I present to you the standard "rock and dreidel on my desk shot" that I do when I'm playing with cameras (be sure to click for the full size version).
