Gavyn Just curious... If you have a Sony f828 I don't get your comment about buying a D70 to leave the film world behind. I left it when I got my f717. You got me wondering how they compare or how the D70 is better. I haven't kept up on equipment lately just enjoying all the cameras I have for now.

Not ONE regret about this beauty. I use it for many purposes and it have produced some great sellers with it. I'm about to jump into the D70 because I simply need to leave the film world behind at this point, but slowly. I'll continue to use the F5, learn the D70 and get the hang of it, then upgrade to the D2X most likely and shelf the F5 at that point. I got so much great advice on this list when I was torn between the D70 and the D100, but after reading the advice here and exploring it online, I'm convinced the D70 is superior in more ways than not to the D100 and will outdo the Fuji F2 in the field hands down. I guess I'll see soon enough. Regards, Gavyn Aaron
