If your already have Canon lenses, stick with Canon and vice versa. What controls you are familiar with. If you are familiar with Nikon then Canon will be different. Different layout and terms of function. Both have outstanding lenses. They both process excellent pictures. Do not get caught up in the megapixel war.

Bronze Member Username: CritHolland, OH USA Post Number: 26 Registered: Apr-05 | well i am pretty set on the D70 but if the D70s comes out by the time i have my finances in order i may just get that if it is not much more in price... what do you think? |

Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 2940 Registered: Dec-03 | I would tend to agree. If it is out by the time you have the budget, I say go for it. |
