I'm wondering what you think of your D70. There's a great deal on my local CraigsList, but don't want to jump on it unless I have honest opinions. When I google it, it says new it is a 2, 000 camera. How good does it hold up, does it take great pics, etc.

Thanks!

Added (1). Thanks guys! I was hopeing someone would be brutally honest before I thought about buying it.

the D70s is only 6.1 mp, and it. Selling for USD2000

DO NOT BUY IT!

Some people have no idea what they're talking about.

The D70 was a great camera, could do everything the serious hobbyist wanted and did so decently upto iso 800.
It would still make a nice starter camera but since it's now ancient, it was introduced in 2004, it would have to be a very good price for anyone to consider. $200 with a basic lens would be worth considering.

A D70 when it was new wasn't a $2, 000 camera, the D700 was if you are talking about the D700 it's a great camera, I would love to have. I have a D70 which a good camera, the ISO images above 800 is not that great.
