D80 is definitely more friendly to beginner.
Just shoot with auto settings & u'll get pleasing results. While the D70(s) need a bit of tweaking of settings here & there to bring out the true potential/quality of it. Anyhow, the D70(s) is 3 yrs old already. So it's advisable to get the latest available ie. D80. |

QUOTE(xjukie @ Sep 23 2007, 04:39 PM) what type of comparison is this? compare 3 yrs thing with new thing .. like how people compare 350D with 400D la.  sometimes people just want to know whether it's worth paying the little extra. |
