Pros: Color rendering, handling and reliability, flash sync

Cons: Small display and viewfinder image, resolution, dynamic range and many other specs by today's standards

Opinion: I bought the camera together with two prime lenses intended for use with my Nikon D600 a few years ago. As I did not pay much more than the value of the lenses, the camera was almost for free. I did not expect much from the camera and intended to use it only in the rare situations when I need a faster x-sync or shutter than the D600's. After taking it on a walk on a spring day with the Sigma 105 mm macro that came with it, I realized that it is a very reliable camera that gets the focus and exposure where it should be in 99% of the cases - it produces just as many keepers as a good modern camera. There is even one thing that it does better than any other digital camera I have owned before: color reproduction is excellent, both vibrant and yet very realistic if choosing the correct white balance setting. Looking back, I almost regret that I bought a Canon EOS 10D as my first digital camera as I intended to continue using my Canon lenses then (although the 10D was a very nice and sturdy camera which was a breeze to handle). I fully agree to the previous comments of Paolo and Pietro: the D70 is fantastic value and has its merits even today.

Pros: CCD quality, file lightness, body quality feel

Cons: None actually

Opinion: I state that what follows is my personal experience with evaluations that have nothing technological therefore it must be taken as it is said this I tell you that, out of curiosity and love for the brand, I invested a few tens of euros but just a few tens maybe fifty including expenses, in a D70 and a D70s, expecting the arrival of old ladies without great pretensions while knowing the quality of CCD sensors. As a logical premise I specify that a few years ago I moved to Fuji after 40 years of Nikon passing through Olympus but Nikon is in my heart and I own dozens of analog bodies and still D80 and D200 that every now and then I take around to take a few shots for a shot of nostalgia and every time I appreciate the overall quality and the unattainable colors but also the big limits, then I put them back in the box, then, lately, having to do some particular photo shoots I repurchased D4 D810 D610 D750 and some Half and depending on what I have to do I take Fuji or Nikon, days ago I received these two "old women" and net of technologies, millions of MPX science fiction functions, non-existent menus I inserted a CF, mounted a simple 18-105 and I took randomly even automatically, certain that I had only done an exercise in nostalgia confirmed by the ridiculous display that tells you that you took a photo but just that. In the evening, out of curiosity, I download the files and a world opens up to me..... Those 6Mpx appear to be of an unthinkable sharpness almost equal to the files produced by the esoteric 3 Mpx of my Sigma SD10 and 14 which, however, have immense limits of usability that everyone knows but returning to the 70SS I see colors to make my other Nikons pale with lenses worth thousands of euros and, above all, an absurd three-dimensionality all for images that returned exactly what I had seen with the naked eye and that even enlarging to the limit of the pixels they never blurred, at most they highlighted the sensor grid. I take photos for passion experimenting with all types of lenses and cameras, from old Kodak Cyclo of the late '800 to plate to bodies of the latest production and, for heaven's sake, knowing that you have to use low ISO is certainly a limit in general, but not for me who shot with 100 and max 400 films and I didn't have today's problems and like me, I am convinced, all my "analog boomer" companions so I don't live them today but I confess that after those shots I began to look with suspicion and disappointment at the new bodies, beautiful, performing and rich in technology, experiencing the subtle suspicion that perhaps I did not understand anything ...... Someone will say that maybe I don't know how to use these bodies, maybe it's true or not, but I have lived this and I want to tell it.

Pros: color rendering, detail, contrast, shadow opening and high light hold, etc.

Cons: resolution, speed ...

Opinion: My digital premiere. Even today if I look at the photos taken with the D70, I am amazed: the photos are simply BETTER than anything I had after (including the D850), except, perhaps, the D700. I remade the same trip abroad this year with the D780 that I did twenty years ago with the D70, and I rephotographed the same places at the same time with similar light conditions. Well, it is incredible the difference in favor of the D70 (photos viewed on LG 4K 43 inches), wonderful complexion, impeccable color rendering and realistic colors, total reliability in all conditions of shadows and lights, very little waste. The only limit is the poor hold at very high ISO, however I remember that at the time at 1000 or 3200 iso it was a huge leap compared to film. When you have equipment that satisfies, it is fundamentally wrong to change it to follow fashions. To think that I had two and I gave them away... The monkey is our worst enemy and technical progress is 95% fluff, if you think that twenty years later the sensors return poorer results.

Pros: Quality CCD sensor, internal motor, dual ring, dual display, 1/500 syncro flash, 1/8000 shutter, semi pro robust body

Cons: small rear screen, CF player can 'do some bizarre, only 6 mpx but can also be a pro... Come to think of it, it is

Opinion: Absolutely to have if you love photography with a slightly vintage flavor, realistic almost analytical images in perfect Nikon style, slightly soft but detailed, colors and tonal passages really from analog, excellent exposure and general reading of the photo. Beautiful perspective and three-dimensionality of the composition. Good more in the landscape or in the street than in the portrait, noteworthy in still life and macro. Having few pixels you can use "recent" af-s lenses not as excellent as the 18-55 vr and get beautiful photos or take advantage of the internal engine and combine them with one of those of the infinite park of older lenses af / af-d that can be purchased at ridiculous prices (as ridiculous is the price of the body on the used on the other hand). Small note.... Inexplicably it is not possible to shoot in raw + jpeg at the highest quality but only jpeg basic.... Mah. After almost 20 years, however, a machine that still pays the most recent entry level, so great to start and immediately have quality photos 'with bargain prices, vote 8

Pros: 2 rings, ergonomics, weight

Cons: None for the type of machine

Opinion: Very nice and robust machine, much appreciated the 2 rings, you can not complain about the few pixels and the poor seal at high ISO thinking about the period in which it was produced and the category of audience for which it was designed, unfortunately I had to retire it since over time the memory card reader had broken.
