Take Off, Flight & Landing
Went to a track meet yesterday afternoon to try out the speed of the D70 and 18-70 kit lense. Using a SanDisk Extreme 512mg CF card this sequence was shot at ISO 400 at 1/1000 and f6.3. Thees frames were shot at 58mm and using matrix metering just trying to get a feel for what the camera, lense and card will do.
Like a lot of things about D70

Now we need some moon shots, some sunsets, some indoor shots....
I like a lot of things about the D70. The 3 fps is a little hard to live with, my F2 is 18 years old and it is so much faster it's not funny. But than I couldn't afford to use it because of the film and processing cost when I ripped them off like that. I guess I'll learn to live with the slower motor. Buffer size is good and the shutter response is exceptable. Those were two of the big issues I had with the S602Z. The big thing I have found out is I will have to invest in some better glass. All my decent glass is manuel focus. I only have one decent Nikor AF, an older 35-70 that I love on the N80 but not as much on the D70. The kit lense is acceptable and I really like having a true wide again. Haven't had one in auto focus other that the 35-70 and that just isn't wide enough.
