OK this might be beaten to death here, im not sure but here goes.
>> Ready
Image Quality: Are they about the same?
>> Same sensor, same processor. I think the D50 give you more saturated JPG's but that's it
I know the D50 makes cleaner less noise images at higer ISO but i dont do much low light shooting.
>> Huh? Where did you hear that? They're almost the same camera
Is the D50 to much of a beginner camera which makes no room to improve and no room to use professinol controls. And is the D70s to hard to learn (manual) for a beginner?
>> No and no. They have the same controls. The D50 lacks a few features of the D70s (ability to remote-control Nikon flashes from built-in flash, SD card rather than Compact Flash)
So im asking plz from the info a gave and what you know help me make a decision.
>> I don't think it really matters which one you buy. My guess is that the D70s will be replaced by a new version with an improved sensor in September. If you buy a D50 at least you will still have the latest camera.
