Hey everyone. I currently own a Nikon N80 SLR camera which I have been enormously happy with. However I rarely get to use it due to the cost of the transparency film I use (both purchase and developing). I can go through a roll of it in virtually no time. I think it's time to make the transition to "guilt-free" photography.

My question now is about the features of the camera. I have grown accustomed to the ammenities of the N80. Does the D70 have similar features to the N80? I know it has Depth of Field preview which is most important. Can the remote be configured to behave like a cable release? Holding the shutter open for say, 30 seconds or so?

Im just wondering if anyone has "upgraded" to the D70 from the N80 and if they actually felt it was an upgrade, or whether the D70 is lacking some of the features of the N80.

Thanks everyone!

BTW:
Does anyone know what the most significant advantages of the D70s are over the original D70?
