Default Which one will you buy [D70 & D100]

With cheaper, higher specification and better image quality of D70, i wonder who will still choose the old D100. vote and comment.

If I really need a DSLR now, I'll get D70 simply because it is superb in specs and price.

D100 is due for replacement soon. I'll get D70 first and get D100s or D200 later and use D70 as backup.

Besides picture quality of D70 is just brilliant.

I'd still go back to D100, over and over and over... you get the idea.

Quite risky getting D100 now coz anytime Nikon could lower the price or discontinue the product (there goes your investment) . It's not that there is no alternative now or D70 under perform D100.

Seriously, I would ask anyone buying DSLR to get D70 now.

my bet is that a replacement for D100 is just around the corner

I am happy with my D100 even though the price may fluctuate. I gave myself an investment to learnt and get to know the camera until then D70 is just a passing Fad.

Only when the official D100 replacement appears. The D70 is only a prelude to what the D*00 will be preferrably with LBCAST and 6fps with WI-FI, 2" LCD with WB sensor.

Nope, dun think so lar. Difference ain't that much to warrant a change...plus the D70 cannot put a batt grip on it. But its a very attractive option for a first DSLR for ppl looking to upgrade from prosumer/consumer digicam. Simply put, yes, I would prolly get the D70 over the D100.
